A noteworthy blend of craftsmanship, thoughtful design, convenience, and serenity, close to everything, yet wonderfully removed from it all. Beneath a canopy of trees and within minutes of spectacular beaches, this is coastal New England living with a distinctly Gloucester sensibility: relaxed, connected, and remarkably easy to call home. Peaceful, tree-filled surroundings, exceptional construction, and commuter convenience, by train or highway, come together in this sparkly new Gloucester townhome, thoughtfully designed for the way life is actually lived, summer through winter. Anderson windows, Hardie cement-board siding, a 30-year roof, white oak floors, and crown molding reflect a level of quality chosen for beautiful, virtually maintenance-free living. The main level embraces seamless open-space living, creating an effortless connection between function and relaxation. The well-appointed kitchen flows naturally into the living room, where expansive windows frame the serene, exclusive-use backyard and bring the surrounding greenery into the everyday experience of home. A defined dining area provides a more intimate setting for conversation or helping the kids with homework. Thoughtful details continue throughout, including a custom hallway drop zone designed for New England’s essential coats, boots, and everyday gear. Off the garage, a finished room with its own entrance offers welcome flexibility as a private office, media room, guest space, or retreat. Outside, the generous exclusive-use area beyond the deck invites a future patio, barbecue, and fire pit, with ample parking for friends and family. It’s equally suited to a holiday gathering, a summer cookout, or an impromptu evening around the fire after a day at the beach! Upstairs, the spacious primary suite features multiple generous closets and a spa-like ensuite bath with double vanity; two additional bedrooms, a second full bath, and convenient center-hall laundry complete the level. Just steps away, Stubby Knowles Landing provides easy access for your canoe or SUP, while the West Gloucester commuter rail, Routes 128 and 133, beaches, restaurants, live music, and Gloucester’s celebrated community events are all minutes away.
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.
