Description
Distinctive Historic Elegance in Salisbury’s Newtown District! Built circa 1920, this lovingly maintained 5-bedroom, 3-bath Victorian gem rests on three thoughtful levels in Salisbury’s original Newtown Historic District—one of the region’s oldest and most admired neighborhoods. This stately home reflects nearly a century of graceful architecture. After devastating fires in the 1860s, the Poplar Hill plantation was subdivided into what became Newtown—Salisbury’s first residential historic neighborhood, eventually populated by prominent locals, bankers, and civic leaders. Your residence at 309 Gay St. Is a true contributor to that legacy, listed among other historic properties in local preservation documentation . Interior Highlights & Flow: An inviting covered front porch leads you inside through a classic glass-paneled front door flanked by sidelights, infusing the foyer with abundant natural light. Large windows throughout create an airy, bright ambiance. The formal living room, dining room, and adjoining side room offer generous, well-proportioned spaces ideal for entertaining or family life. The third floor is a finished space with two additional bedrooms and a full bath—making it perfect for guests, multi-generational living, or home office use . Functional Upgrades & Condition: This property has undergone a comprehensive recent inspection and has had repairs to electrical, plumbing, etc as well as exterior wood work and chimney repair, for modern safety and convenience . Roof is new, so check that big ticket item off the near future replacement list too! The home remains well maintained, and move-in ready with systems that meet today’s standards. Sellers home inspection available upon request. Exterior & Parking: An outbuilding provides secure storage or workspace. You’ll appreciate both off-street driveway parking and ample on-street parking options. The backyard is private for your outdoor enjoyment. Why Salisbury? As the largest city on Maryland’s Eastern Shore and the county seat of Wicomico County, Salisbury is a historic yet vibrant hub of commerce, culture, and academia.

Today it serves as a thriving economic engine—home to Salisbury University, Wor-Wic Community College, Peninsula Regional (TidalHealth), Perdue Farms, and a growing arts scene including the Maryland Folk Festival and 3rd Friday events within walking distance in downtown . Local Attractions: Stroll to downtown for Charming boutiques, local eateries, as well as walk or bike to work if you are employed at TidalHealth Hospital or Salisbury University. Visit nearby historic landmarks like Poplar Hill Mansion, and the Gillis‑Grier House, all preserving Salisbury’s architectural heritage and be a part of the history of the neighborhood yourself!
