Location, location-trite, but true! This is your opportunity to live less than 1/2 mile from the Atlantic ocean and sandy beach in the lovely, seaside town of Swampscott. This sought after neighborhood of more expensive homes is tree lined and peaceful. Sherwood is a dead end street. The good sized living room is light and bright with large picture window, beamed ceiling and an impressive, wood burning fireplace. It flows into the dining room which boasts sliding doors to an amazing screened in deck overlooking backyard greenery. The full basement has tons of potential for additional living space. This is a much loved, one owner home which has had some recent improvements including new roof and gutters (2024), newer hot water heater, stove and renovated main bathroom. Swampscott is known for its great schools, quaint downtown, abundant services and access to Boston train This is a chance to make this your forever home. First offer review 6/25 5pm.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
