Welcome to 36 Summer St Unit 2, a newly renovated 4-bed, 1.5-bath condo in an 1819 home rich in Ipswich’s artisan and mill-town history. Built by a local mason and preserved through Civil War–era families, this residence offers timeless charm with modern comfort. Located in one of the oldest neighborhoods in the country—home to 59 pre-1725 houses—it’s just 100 yards from the Ipswich River and a short stroll to downtown shops, restaurants, and the commuter rail. Recent upgrades include new plaster ceilings, 3/4" solid red oak floors, marble bathroom flooring, professionally painted, new appliances, and updated fixtures. The flexible, light-filled layout flows into a private patio overlooking the Ipswich Outboard Club. The shared backyard feels like a serene garden retreat with mature trees, lawn, and river views. Tucked on a quiet side street yet close to town, this historic condo is a rare blend of peace, charm, and convenience.
