Short walking to all the excitement Salem has to offer with trolley and tours, Museums, Galleries, Fine Dining, Beaches and the Salem Water Ferry into Boston. The home is fully furnished with a combination new luxurious and antique pieces. The kitchen is a gourmet chef's dream. Featuring a gas cook top with grill and griddle attachments, electric double ovens and 2 sinks for easy preparation of meals. Fabulous flow on the first floor between the dining room, living room and kitchen making it ideal to entertain. Many satisfied international families and others from across the country have made this home a destination for family celebrations and holidays.

On the second floor there are 4 bedrooms, two bedrooms with queen beds, one bedroom with a king bed, and the forth has a twin bunkbed (crib available if needed). All are outfitted with comfortable clean and crisp linens and air conditioner units and in the cooler weather you can cuddle up to down filled duvet comforters and get a good nights rest. Cable television and ROKU and wireless access through out the home and streaming. After enjoying the vibrant town of Salem you can come back kick back on the front porch or walk to the nearby train station and in 30 minutes arrive in downtown Boston for more adventures.

Girls trip
Perfect place for our Salem girls trip. There was plenty of room for the nine of us. Close enough to walk into town or grab a quick Uber ride. We really enjoyed all of the cute Halloween & fall decor. Everything was so clean the beds are super comfortable. Plenty of towels without having to do laundry. Yay! Meg was so easy to communicate with and was quick to respond to all my questions prior to our arrival We enjoyed our stay so much & hope to come back again.

Perfect weekend retreat
This property was perfect for our extended family. Everyone had their own space and it never felt crowded. It was in walking distance to downtown Salem and in driving distance to many other sights. The house was stocked with everything you could need.
