Tucked away on a side street in the heart of Gloucester, this charming blue cape-styled home puts so much of what makes Cape Ann special right outside your door. Head downtown for dinner - try out Stone's Pub and Eatery for burgers in a neighborhood setting, or enjoy live jazz and tapas at Saluti! - browse the local shops, catch live music at Harbor Loop on a summer Thursday, or head to one of Gloucester's beautiful beaches. From your own front deck, you can hear the concerts and watch the sunset, and you can head to Harbor Loop to catch the fireworks during the city's summer celebrations. Inside, sunlight fills the open living and dining area, with hardwood floors, a built-in bookcase, and a kitchen that keeps everyone connected whether you're cooking dinner or catching up over coffee. There's a large island, quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a pantry with tucked-away laundry. A bedroom and full bath on the first floor give you options for guests, a home office, or having everything you need on one level. Upstairs, you'll find two more bedrooms with beautiful hardwood flooring. Outside, the wraparound deck and fenced yard give you your own little retreat in the middle of it all. Grow flowers in the garden, enjoy dinner outside, or rinse off the salt and sand in the hot-water outdoor shower with its cedar enclosure after a day at the beach. There's also off-street parking for two cars and an unfinished basement for storage. With downtown restaurants, shops, museums, the harbor, commuter rail, and Route 128 nearby, you can spend less time getting places and more time enjoying them. And when Gloucester's festivals, parades, and summer celebrations come around, you're just a hop, skip and a jump away from the fun.
