|  | April Newsletter | | | | | | | |  | Welcome to the first edition of The Port Scoop! This newsletter is my way of sharing the best of the Greater Newburyport area—its charm, its hidden gems, and the little things that make it feel like home. Each month, I’ll bring you home inspiration, local finds, and a delicious seasonal recipe. Whether you’re looking for design ideas, a new favorite restaurant, or just a little dose of community spirit, I hope you’ll find something to love here! | | | | | | | | | | | | | |  |  | Meet Alissa | Hi, I’m Alissa Phelan! As a longtime West Newbury resident and active member of the Pentucket community, I know this area inside and out—and I love helping others find their perfect place here. With years of experience guiding families through big life transitions, I bring patience, dedication, and a personal touch to every real estate journey. To me, real estate isn’t just about buying or selling—it’s about finding home.
When I’m not helping clients, you’ll find me out on the trails with my two rescue pups, soaking in the ocean, exploring coastal towns, and always on the hunt for the best ice cream in the North Shore.
If you’re looking for a knowledgeable, friendly, and fun guide to help you navigate the real estate market, let’s chat—I’d love to help you reach your goals! | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |  |  | Spring is the season of renewal, and what better way to embrace it than by giving your front door a fresh new look.
