About This Home

As of June 2023

Vintage Old Garden Beach Cottage lost in time! Tucked away on a quiet lane in the coveted Old Garden Beach neighborhood. Privately sited, yet just ¼ mile to the Atlantic Path, ½ mile to Old Garden Beach and the headlands with views of scenic Rockport Harbor. This vintage charmer has been in the same family for 68 years and enjoyed as a summer getaway. Connected to public sewer and seasonal town water, with year-round water at the street. Original details intact, including a screened-in porch, beamed ceilings, fireplace, and doors/hardware. There is also a propane heater for chilly evenings. Enjoy as is, or winterize for year-round use. Come enjoy all this picture-perfect seaside town offers from the renowned Shalin Liu Performance Center, Rockport Art Association, galleries, shops, restaurants, sailing, kayaking, beaches, and public access to miles of trails. Rockport offers a balance of stunning natural beauty, historic charm, and access to the finest music and arts north of Boston.
