Summary: Escape to a refreshing retreat in Massachusetts at this spacious 3bed / 1bath condo. Located in the history-packed city of Salem and close to downtown attractions. This vacation rental offers the space you need while keeping you near all the local sightseeing. Spend the morning at Wakiki Beach, catch a day game at Fenway or go on a Ghost Tour in the heart of Salem. Thereâs something for everyone to explore from this idyllic New England property! A previously 5-star listing now owner managed!
The Space: This is a first floor 3bed / 1 bath unit. Living Room and Kitchen are connected and at the front of the house. They are very spacious for guests and great for conversation. The bedrooms, bath and laundry are off of a central hallway. The queen bedroom is at the front of the house and with the king bedroom and twins at the rear. In the middle is the bathroom and laundry. The king bedroom has a walk in closet which is where the crib is located...this is great if you have a little one which you wont disturb if you are still up. The third bedroom is a trundle bed. The twin will need to be rolled out and can either be left on the ground or can be elevated to be flush with the upper bed. This could make a king bed if you push them together. In this room is a walk in space for closet storage and a desk / workspace.
Guest Access: Guests have access to the whole unit and the shared outdoor space. Guests may also use the outdoor seating area in the back garden that seats 6. At check in I will provide a code to enter the front door. Unless directed by the guest contact, the basement is strictly off limits.
The Neighborhood: Located in a quiet, peaceful neighborhood steps away from the McIntire Historic District, a must-see in Salem.
Getting Around: This is downtown Salem and is easy to park and walk around.

Very nice, clean & comfortable accommodations, just like home! Close to everything in Salem, very quiet neighborhood. We're grateful and enjoyed our stay!
Five of us stayed at this lovely house. Everything was perfect. We all enjoyed everything about the house and it was in a great location. I would definitely stay here again the next time visiting Salem if if we are a smaller group.
Really nice condo with pretty & easy walk to town center
We loved this condo! Nearby coffee shop and easy walk through the pretty neighborhood to the town, close to everything. Really nice inside, with many beds and super clean. Slept really well. There is only one bathroom but that was done for our girls trip :) Highly recommend!
This is a beautiful home, very clean and comfortable. It maintains the beautiful and historical features while still being updated to fit the needs of guests. Joe is very accessible and easy to communicate with. We would definitely stay here again! Highly recommended for families and friends!
We stayed to see the sites for a few days. The condo had everything we needed. It was comfortable for the 5 of us and conveniently located to the museums we wanted to visit.
We had an amazing time staying here. It was a great little walk from downtown and easy to get to. The place was really cute and we would love to stay here again.
This property is very clean, homey, with an open floor plan so everyone could interact with each other while cooking, playing games, watching TV. The beds were clean and comfy, towels were thick and soft. Plenty of hot water. Just an overall excellent place to stay, and within walking distance of the majority of museums and shops.
My girlfriends and I visited for a weekend getaway. It was just what we needed. Our own private area away from the kids. We explored during the day, and at night we stayed in and ordered food. It was amazing. So thankful for Joe. Who has very good with communication.

My family and I really enjoyed our stay! Everything was clean and cozy making us feel comfortable. We loved learning about the homeâs history and the neighborhood. Great stay!
Walking distance to the center of town to enjoy Halloween festivities. It's a bit of a walk, but doable and there's a couple of small corner store type places to pick up groceries nearby. Clean, easy stay.
This home is full of character and history. It was the perfect size for our family of 5 with more than enough room for everyone. The owners are amazing and so very helpful with details about our plans while we were there. The place is situated perfectly to access downtown Salem with a short walk. Great place and will definitely stay there again next time we travel to the Salem/Boston area.
Joe was a great host! His house was super clean and very up to date with all amenities you would need. Perfect proximity to walking to downtown Salem. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay!!!!! Would highly recommend!!
While we did not spend much time at this property, Joe was a great and extremely communicative host. This is a great option for anybody looking to check out Salem and the surrounding areas.
We had an amazing October in Salem stay in this lovely townhome. Very comfortable, very clean, amazing new appliances, fully stocked kitchen, convenient location, and Joe (the owner), is very responsive and courteous. If you're headed to Salem, this is the place to grab now before it books up...you won't be disappointed!
We were very pleased with our choice to rent this beautiful home. It is about a half mile from shops, museums and restaurants; very walkable.
The home has been completely renovated. Thank goodness for central air! It is gorgeous inside, roomy and comfortable. We really enjoyed our stay!
Very nice place located a very short walking distance to all that DT Salem has to offer. House was clean and newly renovated. A must when visiting Salem.
