About This Home

Situated on historic Prospect Hill in Essex, this distinctive ranch style home is set on a .54-acre lot. Originally the Christian Science Reading Room, it was thoughtfully expanded with carefully curated additions during the 1970s, 1980s, and 1990s. Offering approximately 2,900 square feet, the home features 2 bedrooms, 3 full baths, an attached two-bay garage, and desirable one-floor living. High ceilings, wood and bluestone floors, three fireplaces, detailed paneling, moldings, and built-in bookshelves enhance much of the interior. Hand-painted marine murals throughout the home create a distinctive maritime-inspired ambience. The floor plan includes formal living and dining rooms, a comfortable library, a family room with a fireplace, and a sunroom/studio. The spacious eat-in kitchen offers banquette seating, a center island with bar seating, generous counter space, and abundant storage. A large deck spans the rear of the house and overlooks ample garden space. Filled with character and history, this unique property enjoys a convenient location close to everything Essex has to offer. This property is offered in AS-IS condition. The owner has lived here very comfortably for nearly 4 decades and this presents a superb opportunity to acquire and renovate a rare ranch style home in the Village.
