About This Home

As of July 2025

Who said good things come in small packages? This sweet and refined home looks over to Smith Cove and, from the rooftop deck, you have a clear view of Gloucester's inner harbor. Renovated with top quality materials, this expanded cape will capture your heart. The charm of this home is in the many details and the practical use of space. The main living area consists of a chef's kitchen with AGA gas stove, granite counter's, and custom cabinets, a dining area and living room with built-ins surrounding a wood burning fireplace, all drenched in sunlight with sliders to an exterior deck. The gardens are splendid, set in the natural slope and ledge creating a private yard that includes a waterfall, fruit trees, and perennials. But, when you are ready to explore, it is an easy stroll to Rocky Neck and Niles Beach. The perfect escape from the city or a wonderful year round retreat, this special home is waiting for you. Showings by appointment only.
