Dive into the world of real estate and discover a home that stands out from the rest. Built in 1986, this property spans 3,267 square feet, including its lower level, and is a treasure trove of unique spaces and features.
The house recently caught the eye of many on Zillow Gone Wild, thanks to its collection of mannequins dressed as superheroes and supervillains, a quirky touch added by the current owner. These mannequins, belonging to Greg Maraio, an actor and artist, add a distinctive flair to the property.
Located at 50 Bare Hill Road in Topsfield, this residence is not your average home. Despite its traditional setting, the house is filled with caped figures that give it an extraordinary vibe.
Listed for $1.069 million, the property has attracted attention for its unconventional decor. Greg Maraio’s creative work with mannequins has turned this home into a talking point.
Upon visiting the house, the McCaul & Mounsif Real Estate Group at Coldwell Banker Realty was initially surprised by the mannequins. However, they quickly realized the potential of incorporating these unique elements into the listing photos.
This 4-bedroom, 3.5-bathroom house is not just about its aesthetic appeal. It offers a welcoming entrance through stone steps leading to a covered front porch. Inside, the open-air kitchen and living room area boast cathedral ceilings, oversized windows, skylights, and a cozy spot for relaxation. The kitchen is equipped with ample counter space, stainless steel appliances, and a large center island.
The dining room, measuring 104 square feet, features sliding glass doors on all sides, opening up to a 200-square-foot deck that captures the essence of the surrounding nature.
In 2008, an in-law suite was added to the first floor, providing 383 square feet of additional living space. It includes its own kitchen, living area, bedroom, and is accessible via an elevator from the garage or a private entrance.
The main section of the house leads to the second story, where you’ll find three bedrooms, including a stunning primary suite with a spacious walk-in closet and an en-suite bathroom featuring a spa-like walk-in shower.
A finished lower level offers 428 square feet of versatile space, ideal for a home office or play area. The property also includes a two-car garage, potentially accommodating three vehicles, and sits on just over one acre, nestled atop a small hill with a flat, grassy backyard surrounded by mature trees.
While the superheroes may not be part of the sale, in real estate, everything is negotiable. This home is a testament to the unique possibilities that come with property ownership, blending traditional elements with creative flair to create a truly one-of-a-kind living experience.
