About This Home

As of August 2025

Proudly Presenting 2 Clarendon Street. Perched atop the highest point of Rocky Neck, this iconic Victorian home stands as one of Gloucester’s most recognized residences—immortalized in an Edward Hopper painting. With a commanding presence above Gloucester Harbor, it offers front-row views of the harbor’s ever-changing activity and unmatched coastal vistas. Built nearly 150 years ago, every renovation has carefully preserved the home’s original beauty, craftsmanship, and architectural details. Greeted by a dramatic floating staircase and soaring 13-foot ceilings on the first level, setting the tone for the home's grandeur.The kitchen has harbor views and flows seamlessly into a cozy sitting or dining area, perfect for gathering. Just off the kitchen, a covered porch invites year-round enjoyment of the scenery. Upstairs, the office has access to the cupola, another room has access to attic and widows walk. A distinctive home located in Rocky Neck, known as America’s first art colony.
