Near Salem town center, the Smith Crosby Endicott House was built by Benjamin Smith and Captain Nicholas Crosby in 1789, and it was the home of Captain Samuel Endicott and his heirs for most of the nineteenth century. It’s a grand space with 12 rooms on three floors, and a carriage house out back. In true Federalist style, multiple fireplaces with stone facades are one of the home’s highlights. The house has a formal dining room and ballroom, a family room, and a library. It includes eight bedrooms, four baths, a kitchen with updated appliances, and much of the original period woodwork.
