Old Ferry Gardens is a single-story condominium complex built in 1981 that primarily offers one-bedroom residences with occasional den space. The community’s exterior presents townhome-like massing with covered patios, private decks or balconies for many units, professionally landscaped grounds and on-site storage. Interiors vary by unit but commonly include eat-in kitchens, modest living/dining footprints, updated cabinetry in some homes, sheetrock finishes, and the occasional enclosed porch or den. Shared facilities focus on low-cost, functional conveniences: coin-operated laundry in a lower-level room, assigned or surface parking near units, and resident mailboxes on the property. Community amenities emphasize recreation and maintenance ease — association-maintained tennis courts, a clubhouse, and access to an indoor pool are repeatedly noted, while the condo fee typically covers heat, hot water, cooking gas, water, sewer, master insurance, exterior upkeep, snow removal and trash. Management appears hands-on with visible attention to grounds and common areas. Located in Methuen with straightforward access to nearby shopping, medical offices and highway connections, the complex suits buyers seeking modest, affordably maintained condominium living with outdoor space and recreational amenities.
