About this home

This isn't a home that asks for more of your time. It's a home that gives more of it back. The right home doesn't just change where you live. It changes how you live. It gives you the freedom to spend more time doing the things you love, knowing that when you come home, everything you need is already here. That's exactly what you'll find at 31 Symonds Street. Located on the top floor of The Balcomb Condominiums, this bright two-bedroom home makes everyday living feel refreshingly uncomplicated. Natural light fills the living space throughout the day, creating a home that feels warm and welcoming from the moment you walk in. The updated kitchen with granite countertops and stainless steel appliances, along with the renovated bathroom, means there's nothing waiting for you except deciding where to put your furniture. Start your mornings with a cup of coffee on your private balcony, lose yourself in a good book on a quiet afternoon, or simply enjoy the added peace that comes with having no neighbors above you. Life here is intentionally simple. Heat, hot water, exterior maintenance, landscaping, and snow removal are all included in the condo fee, giving you more time to enjoy everything beyond your front door. One of the biggest surprises is the common laundry room. Instead of feeling like a basement utility space, it's comfortable, inviting, and thoughtfully designed with seating that makes even everyday chores a little more enjoyable. It's a small detail, but one that says a lot about how this building is cared for. Located in North Salem's established Northfields neighborhood, you'll be about a mile from downtown Salem and the commuter rail, close enough to enjoy everything the city has to offer while coming home to a quieter residential setting. Because the best homes aren't measured by their square footage. They're measured by the life they make possible. At 31 Symonds Street, homeownership isn't about taking on more responsibility. It's about creating more time for the people, places, and experiences that matter most.
