About This Home
Sure to be the "cutest" two bedroom ranch this side of the Atlantic! This East Gloucester ranch is moments to Good Harbor Beach, Rt. 128, Bass Rocks Golf Club, the "famed" Back Shore, & plenty of shops & restaurants in both Rocky Neck & downtown. Ideal for empty nesters who are not ready for that condo, first time buyers, AND those seeking a second home where weekends by the beach are a dream come true. In pristine condition, just move in & enjoy the many updates including the bathroom & roof in 2018, replacement windows in 2019, gas heating system in 2020, shingle "look" vinyl siding in 2021, plus fresh paint & new insulation. The vintage kitchen is "spectacular" to those who enjoy a nod to the 50's, where quality & a "cool" vibe still live on. It is with INTENTION that this "timeless" space has remained flawlessly intact...just perfect for this seaside home. The full walk-out basement allows for wonderful storage, laundry, & access to the back yard. Don't let this one "sail" away!
