Perched high above the Back Shore close to Brace Cove, this contemporary coastal home perfectly embraces its natural setting and prime oceanfront location. Moments from the North Shore’s most compelling attractions—Good Harbor Beach, Rocky Neck, Eastern Point Yacht Club, Bass Rocks Golf & Tennis Club, and historic Gloucester—the 2 bedroom, 2.5 bath home offers sweeping views of the ocean from every room. A sprawling waterfront deck invites you to soak in the sea breeze or entertain family and friends. Inside, the open-concept living space features expansive windows, French doors, a second-story bridge to a panoramic waterview, a stone fireplace, and light-filled dining area and kitchen. The primary suite is an idyllic private sanctuary with custom bath, walk-in closet and hidden access; a 2nd bedroom offers space for family or guests. Set on nearly 2.5 acres with gardens and mature coastal plantings.
