Listing broker remarks

Extensively renovated in 2025 using I-beam steel and other engineered materials, this elevated Point Shore home offers expansive sightlines, abundant natural light, and a modern open-concept floor plan. It seamlessly blends historic charm with contemporary design and panoramic views of the Merrimack River, most notably from the kitchen and living areas. Perched high above the water, it is ideally located just 3 miles from Newburyport’s downtown, 2 miles from Amesbury Mills, and minutes from Routes 95 and 495. The first-floor primary suite overlooks the river, and the finished lower level also benefits from water views. "Your own private dock for your boat!"— Carey & Giampa REALTORS®
