Property Description

Experience the pinnacle of lakefront luxury living at 20 Gillis Terrace-an exceptional sun-drenched ~7,123 sqft residence on your own private beach with deeded dock, just 40 minutes from Boston. Tucked in one of the most desirable Salem neighborhoods, this meticulously maintained 5-bedroom home blends grand scale with everyday luxury. The 1st-floor primary suite is a true retreat featuring a fireplace, spa-like bath with sauna shower, jacuzzi tub, double vanities, and European bidet. The chef's kitchen offers granite counters, designer cabinetry, and high-end appliances including a professional-grade range and wine fridge-all flowing into an open-concept living and dining area with soaring ceilings, natural light, and gas fireplace. Upstairs, find additional bedrooms, full baths, and a cozy overlook. The finished walkout lower level stuns with a custom wet bar, gas fireplace, and half bath, while a renovated in-law apartment adds flexibility. Additional highlights include a new HVAC, professionally landscaped grounds, freshly painted interiors, hardwood floors, radiant floors, generator, surround sound, 3-car garage, outdoor fire pit, custom stone walls, and a newer 2-bedroom septic installed in 2020. A rare opportunity to own a truly expansive and turn-key lakefront home on Arlington Pond (269-acres). Property is being used as a 5 bedroom home with in-law but has a 2 bedroom septic system.
