Property Description
The Tenney-Burnham house built in 1805 is emblematic of Newburyport’s grandest era. It is located on historic Fruit Street, just blocks from downtown Newburyport with its vibrant restaurants, shops and picturesque waterfront. Rarely does a property come on the market with such abundant period detail in a home of manageable size. A Federal style deeded half-house, it features a gracious staircase, elegant crown moldings, wainscoting, window seats, beaded paneling and 6 fireplaces. It has been lovingly maintained and the exceptional antique features carefully preserved. Spacious rooms, filled with natural light, have high ceilings and gleaming wood floors, creating a festive air of casual elegance. The flexible floor plan features on the 1st level: a living room, dining room and kitchen/family room which opens to a landscaped, private brick courtyard and parking for 2 cars. The 2nd and 3rd levels have 4-5 bedrooms, several being used as a dressing room and home office, with 2 1/2 baths.
