Older than America and standing directly beside Salem's iconic Witch House, the Lindall-Gibbs-Osgood House is a remarkable piece of New England history. Built c.1755, this Georgian-style gambrel offers 4,670 SF across three finished levels and was extensively restored and renovated in 2016, thoughtfully preserving original floors, fireplaces and centuries-old architectural details while introducing modern systems and amenities.A gracious reception foyer anchors the main level, flanked by two formal parlors with wood-burning fireplaces, an elegant dining room and an extraordinary chef's kitchen where an original cooking hearth meets commercial-scale appliances and a steam wall oven. The second floor offers three spacious en-suite bedrooms arranged around a generous central landing. Above, the expansive third level creates a private retreat with a primary suite, spa-like bath, walk-in closet, kitchenette, den, gym and office.Outside, a lush fenced garden provides an unexpected sense of privacy in the heart of downtown Salem, complemented by two coveted off-street parking spaces. Set within the historic McIntire District (one of the nation's largest concentrations of pre-1900 architecture), the home is moments from Salem's restaurants, museums, shops, waterfront and commuter rail.Beyond its appeal as an extraordinary private residence, the home's configuration, en-suite accommodations, substantial common spaces, commercial-scale kitchen, history and prominent downtown location present intriguing possibilities for an owner-occupied inn, guesthouse, boutique hospitality or event concept (subject to City approvals and buyer due diligence). Furnishings may also be available by negotiation.With more than 270 years of history, remarkable architectural character and a setting beside one of New England's most recognizable historic landmarks, 314 Essex Street represents a rare opportunity to become the next steward of an irreplaceable piece of Salem history.
