WaterViews Overlooking Gloucester Inner Harbor/Sunroom/Deck/Walk to Town/AC | House in Gloucester
3 Bedroom House in Gloucester
VACATION or WORK or do a bit of both if it means you'll have longer to play here on Cape Ann! The preferred spot for all things is the sunroom chaise overlooking the harbor, but there are also two spacious desk areas including one in the living room which can be closed off for privacy while your family enjoys the rest of the house! (Then, of course, go to the beach!) Vaccination preferred, though no longer required.
WELCOME
From this convenient in-town location enjoy restful refinement while also delighting in being part of the Gloucester experience. This 2800 sq ft, easy-to-live-in home is perched above the sparkling waters of Gloucester's inner harbor. Watch the gulls soar and fishing boats return from the comfort of your enclosed sunporch or adjacent outdoor deck, family room or spacious, fully-equipped kitchen. Or fire up some tasty burgers on our new gas grill on the patio overlooking the garden.
Walk an easy five to ten minutes to great restaurants, our favorite whale watch boat, schooner sailing, harbor water shuttle, fun and funky shops, and maritime and art museums. In a five minute drive, you can also be at Good Harbor Beach, Niles Beach, Rocky Neck Art Colony or the commuter rail to Boston.
With a peaceful décor and open floor plan, guests tell us this is an especially comfortable place to call home. On the main floor, all overlooking Gloucester's inner harbor are the sunroom, adjacent outdoor porch, family room and fully-equipped kitchen; plus there are a half bath, formal dining room and living room with a baby grand piano. Upstairs are three bedrooms, two full baths, and laundry. The master bedroom with en suite bath overlooks the inner harbor and has a king bed, reading chairs and desk area.
