The time-honored homes of the North Shore often overflow with historical charm, and this 1872 abode in Marblehead is no exception. But the house stands apart from its 19th-century neighbors thanks to its fresh and modern interior.

Situated on a quiet street in Marblehead’s Old Town historic district, the house is only a short walk from the beach. Exposed beams and a wood stove in the kitchen are juxtaposed with modern touches like a center granite island and recessed lighting. Upstairs, there are three freshly painted bedrooms and a full bathroom, plus enough space for an artist’s studio.
