Property Description
Welcome to 71 Purchase St, a South End gem just blocks from downtown shops, dining, and the waterfront. This circa-1889 Victorian two-family offers nearly 2,000 sqft of living space across two units, giving buyers multiple pathways forward - whether as an investment property, conversion to a single-family, or simply to enjoy as it is. Set on a 5,550 sqft lot, the property includes a two-car garage, off-street parking, and space for gardening, play, or entertaining — a rare find in this location. Inside, each unit features 2 bedrooms and 1 bath with hardwood floors, tall windows, and sun-filled living areas that highlight its historic character. A large walk-up attic provides excellent storage and potential for future expansion. With downtown, parks, and beaches close by, the lifestyle here is hard to match. This is a unique opportunity to own a piece of Newburyport with room to make it your own. First showings at the open house on Thursday from 4:30-6 PM.
