OPEN HOUSE CANCELLED>Love the charm of an older home? This home built in 1770 when South Berwick was part of Berwick and North Berwick, has truly stood the test of time. It still stands as built, with a perfectly straight roof ridge and no sagging floors. Imagine building a walkout basement 250 yrs ago? That's exactly what they did here. You would expect a shallow basement ceiling, but its not. Built the only way it was done, expect to see high solid beamed ceilings and some interior exposed brick. Once a duplex, the separate staircases remain in the front and rear of the home. Situated on a large intown corner lot, it offers plentiful off street parking, garden space, a tool shed and a 5 year old roof. The Sellers have 56 years of wonderful memories raising their large family here. With many changes throughout the years--it was once an Inn, then a duplex and finally a single family home--it is time to make Your mark on this wonderful property!
