A home with as much personality as the city around it. Nestled on a charming side-street just outside downtown, 8 Gardner Unit 2's built-ins and thoughtful finishwork bring a little whimsy to a home that blends the character of its 1915 building with the comfort of a full renovation. The kitchen features quartz counters, stainless steel appliances, gas cooking and a breakfast bar, with a wet bar and wine fridge just off the kitchen for entertaining. Oversized windows fill the living room with light, while two generously sized bedrooms, a full bath and a separate in-unit laundry room complete the interior. Off-street parking, shared outdoor space and private basement storage add everyday convenience, while the pet-friendly association makes it easy to bring your four-legged companion along. The location is exceptional, too. Downtown Salem’s restaurants, cafés, shops, galleries and the Peabody Essex Museum are close by, and the waterfront is just a few blocks away. Salem State University and the commuter rail are also nearby. A home with its own distinct character, right in the heart of a city celebrated for the same.
