The kitchen serves as the architectural surprise, anchored by soaring vaulted ceilings that flood the heart of the home with volume and airiness rarely found in this era. The main living area captures the "golden hour" light perfectly in the late afternoon.

Best of all? Over 300 tulips are planted and ready to greet you with a spectacular show this Spring.This location offers exceptional access to the best of the community. You are located just moments from the vibrant Edgewater District, Urban Grange Coffee, local parks, and the pedestrian bridge connecting you to downtown Salem's dining and culture.This home is the perfect candidate for renovation financing (FHA 203(k) or Conventional HomeStyle®).
