Featured Home: The Edward Jones House

If your dream is to live in an historic home with a secret garden, look no further.

This house, at 8 Sanford Street, is a 19th century Vernacular Greek Revival on the corner of Farewell Street.

It was restored by Operation Clapboard and has a secret garden out back with a brick sitting area.

Along with the history, charm and convenience of a recently-restored home, the house has a workable floor plan, off-street parking and is in walking distance to everything the City by the Sea has to offer.

You get a modern heating system, full basement, appliances, hardwoods, eat-in kitchen, laundry room.

Built in 1850, this 1,500 square foot, three-bedroom, one-and-a-half bathroom house also has tankless hot water, so you'll save money on bills.

Taxes land at an estimated $4,856 per year. Asking price is $449,500.
