Due to the health concerns created by Coronavirus we are offering personal 1-1 online video walkthough tours where possible.
Welcome to 436 Lafayette Street —“The Marblehead House”—a stately Federal Colonial built in 1947 by then-Mayor Manning as his personal residence. Perched high on Castle Hill above Lafayette Street, it offers wooded privacy, curated gardens, and ocean views from both the home and a raised terrace. Inside, 5,100+ sq ft blend historic charm—vintage hardwoods, art deco moldings, soaring ceilings—with modern comfort. A grand great room anchors the main level, while a bright cook’s kitchen opens to a Goshen stone patio for al fresco dining. The four-season solarium, positioned to capture a sweeping 180° panorama, overlooks the level backyard, patio and the elevated terrace. Upstairs holds a full-depth primary suite plus three bedrooms; the walkout lower level offers an ADU/in-law suite potential. Nearly half an acre of meticulously landscaped grounds, a slate roof, and an oversized 2-car garage. DEEDED Salem Harbor access. More than a home—it’s a legacy.
