About this home
Situated on a beautifully landscaped and irrigated corner lot, in one of Swampscott’s most sought-after neighborhoods, 5 Sargent Road is a rare find. A two car garage with a wood stove and ample storage, along with a patio and pergola, complete the well maintained grounds. A sunny, multi-season, rear porch welcomes you to an open concept kitchen, dining room, and fire-placed living room. Two bedrooms, a full bath, and laundry round out the first floor and create a single level living opportunity. Upstairs, three additional well proportioned bedrooms and a full bath provide even more flexibility for family or guests. The finished basement has great ceiling height, a fireplace, tons of storage, another full bath and laundry, and convenient access to the driveway, garage, and patio. Swampscott Elementary and Middle schools, Phillips Park, beaches, and the restaurants and shops on Humphrey Street are all walkable from this remarkable property.

Olmsted, located between Humphrey Street and the Lynn line, is a residential and coastal Swampscott neighborhood with ocean-view hillsides and pocket parks. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Humphrey Street corridor near the Olmsted Historic District, where corner markets, small salons, and takeout counters meet steady foot traffic. Early-20th-century Colonials and shingled cottages mix with tidy multifamily homes on curving, tree-lined streets. Sidewalks lead toward shoreline paths and small greens that shape daily routines. The pace feels local and practical, with the sea breeze never far from view.
