Property Description

Sunshine, surf, sand & tranquility. Your coastal lifestyle & a peaceful community await you. Tucked on a private side street with ocean views, this exceptional 1875 home is thoughtfully reimagined while honoring its architecture. Soaring 10ft ceilings, a grand staircase, wide white oak floors & curated designer finishes create timeless elegance. The chef’s kitchen features custom cabinetry, quartz counters, a Thermador appliance suite. Sunlight & ocean views fill every level, while the expansive farmer’s porch captures sea breezes & stunning skies. A rare .47-acre double-access lot outside the flood zone generously allows for further property enhancement. Near to beaches, boating, many outdoor activities & the nearby Boston ferry. The lower level is setup for an inlaw suite, however, there is an option to recreate a garage space. A home designed to welcome you back from the pace of the city, the demands of travel or work--with ocean air, timeless craftsmanship & understated luxury.
