Experience an extraordinary way of living in one of East Gloucester's most peaceful coastal neighborhoods. Tucked among mature trees on a private nearly quarter-acre lot just moments from the Atlantic Ocean, this beautifully reimagined four-bedroom home offers a rare blend of privacy, natural beauty, and exceptional comfort. Walk to the Back Shore, Brace Cove, Niles Beach, and Marble Road Conservation Area, then return to an exceptionally quiet home naturally cooled by ocean breezes and surrounded by grapevines, an organic garden, and Cape Ann stone landscaping. Nationally recognized as Massachusetts' first positive-energy renovated home, it has quietly demonstrated what the future of living can feel like for nearly two decades. More than a home, this is a rare opportunity to own a property whose beauty, comfort, performance, and legacy are unlike anything else on the market.

ADU Potential

Massachusetts allows one accessory dwelling unit by right in single-family zoning districts statewide (M.G.L. c. 40A §3; 760 CMR 71.00, effective Feb 2025). Estimated maximum ADU size for this property: 900 sq ft (the lesser of 900 sq ft or half the 1,936 sq ft principal dwelling). Lot size: 10,454 sq ft.

Based on listing data, which indicates the property type — not the zoning district. Local dimensional, septic (Title 5), and historic-district requirements still apply. Not legal advice — verify with the municipality.

Estimates — not financial advice

These figures are illustrative estimates for informational purposes only — not an appraisal, valuation, or guarantee of rent, income, or returns, and not financial, tax, or investment advice. Rent is either the figure reported on the MLS listing — in-place rent that may differ from market and is not verified against the actual leases — or, where the listing reports none, an estimate from HUD Small Area Fair Market Rents, a government benchmark that may differ from actual market rent. Each figure is labelled with its source. Cap rate, NOI, and returns depend on the assumptions shown, which you can change. MLS and other third-party data may be inaccurate or out of date. Verify all figures independently and consult your own financial, tax, and legal advisors before making any investment decision.
