This is a beautiful home and fantastic location.  So rare to find a true master suite in a home of this vintage -- much less one this spacious!  Love to see beautifully renovated homes like this!

I love Fairmount Hill, it is a fabulous Salem neighborhood.  Good luck with the listing.  It gets a "gold star!"

What a surprising house.  I never expected to see the rear with dormers.  May I suggest a pre-sale inspection...no?  ok, never mind.

Leslie: Thanks Leslie!!! Yes, totally fab neighborhood! I love this area, too!

Jim: Haha! Yes, pre-sale inspections are always good....this home has been totally redone though so I think we're safe. But, you know that you are always my first call for inspections! You do an amazing job! Working with new buyers right now so I'll be calling you soon.

What a gem!  The neighborhood is a big draw but the house is great. What a surprise to see all that space in a master suite in an older home.  A fabulous retreat...inside and out.

Hey Cecily,

This is an absolutely gorgeous house! Great listing. I hope that it sells quickly. I would totally live there if I could afford it! Also, thanks for helping me with AR. I got in touch with Craig and we figured out the postlet issue. We weren't too far off.
