About This Home
97 & 99 East Main Street combine a classic 1900 Colonial (approx. 1,941 sq. ft., 5 bedrooms) with an adjoining lot in the Marine Industrial (MI) zone. Overlooking Cripple Cove and the harbor, the property has been home to Cripple Cove Studios and offers flexible space for residential, live/work, or creative use (subject to city approvals). The Colonial retains charm and scale with room for updates, while the additional lot expands potential for parking, gardens, or marine-related endeavors. Enjoy harbor views, off-street parking, and a convenient location close to downtown Gloucester, Route 128, and the commuter rail. A rare opportunity to blend historic character with future possibilities on Gloucester’s working waterfront.
