Well loved two-story home in a prime downtown Rockport location, just a short walk to shops, restaurants, schools, and the commuter rail. The first floor offers a spacious kitchen with updated appliances, a large dining area, and a generous living room with a sliding door leading to the deck and large fenced backyard. A convenient half bath with first-floor laundry completes the main level. Upstairs you'll find two oversized bedrooms, a full bath, and pull-down attic access for additional storage. The second floor was added in the late 1990s and features quality 2x6 construction with engineered roof trusses, providing a well-built addition and the flexibility of no interior load-bearing walls. The full basement offers both interior and exterior access, providing ample storage or workspace. A wonderful opportunity to enjoy downtown living with plenty of indoor and outdoor space.
