Meticulously maintained and thoughtfully updated throughout, this inviting home is filled with warmth, character, and the kind of craftsmanship that's difficult to replicate. Original hardwood floors, decorative moldings, built-in cabinetry, and a welcoming front foyer reflect its timeless appeal, while thoughtful updates create a home that's ready to enjoy. The spacious eat-in kitchen is truly the heart of the home, offering abundant cabinetry, pantry-style storage, a built-in breakfast nook, and easy access to the backyard through one of two sunrooms. Upstairs are two bedrooms, an updated full bath with a double vanity, and an additional bonus room. While recognized as a two-bedroom home on public record, the extra room offers flexibility to suit your needs. Outside, the fully fenced yard is designed for everything from summer dinners on the patio to evenings around the fire pit, with room to garden, play, or simply unwind. A detached two-car garage with a full second story offers exceptional storage, while two driveways on Congress Street and Gardner Street provide plenty of parking. Ideally located just over a mile from downtown Amesbury's shops, restaurants, breweries, and entertainment, approximately one mile from Lake Gardner Beach and the Powwow River Conservation Area, and less than two miles from I-95 and I-495.

ADU Potential

Massachusetts allows one accessory dwelling unit by right in single-family zoning districts statewide (M.G.L. c. 40A §3; 760 CMR 71.00, effective Feb 2025). Estimated maximum ADU size for this property: 640 sq ft (the lesser of 900 sq ft or half the 1,280 sq ft principal dwelling). Lot size: 12,196 sq ft.

Based on listing data, which indicates the property type — not the zoning district. Local dimensional, septic (Title 5), and historic-district requirements still apply. Not legal advice — verify with the municipality.
