About This Home

As of December 2025

Back on market due to a change in buyer’s circumstances. Once the parsonage for Gloucester’s iconic Blue Church, this charming home blends timeless character with modern, cost-efficient updates. Just a 5-minute stroll to coveted Plum Cove Beach—renowned for its sunsets—on the edge of the beloved Lanesville community. Original wide pine floors, high ceilings, and abundant light complement a renovated kitchen and bath, new induction stove, ventless washer/dryer, and water filtration system. Additional upgrades include Mitsubishi mini-splits, Italian pellet stove, and 2020 roof. Enjoy ocean views from upper floors, a finished attic perfect for work or guests, and a first-floor studio with private entrance, deck, kitchen, bath, and laundry—ideal for guests, multigenerational living, or potential ADU (buyers to do due diligence). The neighboring church property is scheduled for renovation; plans and details available upon request.
