In the shadow of Salem's infamous Hawthorne Hotel, emerges a home that defies the ordinary. Amid a landscape of uniform townhomes and cloned condos, 8 Union Street #2 offers a spellbinding departure. This two-bedroom, one-bathroom abode blends contemporary design with a haunting charm, where modern meets mysterious. From the outside, it appears to be a classic New England brownstone, nestled in the heart of Downtown Salem. But step inside, and over 1, 000 sq. ft. beckons with an unconventional allure no white cabinets or dull grey walls here, only a refreshing escape from the ordinary. Centrally located in a prime neighborhood, with every amenity just a stone's throw away, commuting is effortless. Easy admittance to I-95, RT.1, Salem State University, the Salem commuter rail (Purple Line), or the Seasonal Ferry connects you directly to Downtown Boston. At 8 Union Street #2, the line between the ordinary and the extraordinary blurs, where every corner tells a story waiting to unfold.
