Built in 1797 for Salem tanner Ezekiel Wellman, this charming late Georgian home blends historic character with thoughtful modern updates. Its symmetrical façade, gambrel roof, and distinctive Beverly jog introduce interiors rich in original detail. The first floor offers a living room, a study with late-18th-century casework, full bath, and an expansive sun-filled kitchen/dining/gathering space with fireplace, generous counter space, gas cooktop, and dual 36" wall ovens—an uncommon luxury for a home of this vintage. The kitchen opens to side and rear gardens plus off-street parking. Upstairs are 3 bedrooms, a full bath, office, and large walk-in closet. The top floor adds a bedroom, half bath, and flexible space which could be used for a second office or extra guest space. Clever configuration allows potential owner-occupied Airbnb use. Recent updates include a 2021 Viessmann 3-zone high-efficiency boiler & hot water heater. Set on historic Federal Street in Salem’s McIntire District
