From the moment you approach this home, you are aware that you are about to enter something special. Side by side two family with everything completely separate: entrances, basements, utilities, backyards. Recent updates include 1 year old heating systems, 6 year old roof, mostly newer windows, updated bathrooms on the left side. Located within view of the Salem Common and just minutes to MBTA station and downtown Salem. This truly is a unique offering....this house has not been on the market since 1968! You may have to wait another 50 years to find something like this.
