Enjoy the first floor in this centrally located, clean, and bright home -- beautifully crafted and decorated, yet unpretentious, comfortable, and homey. It’s both open and airy, while offering a cozy space to curl up with a good book by a beautifully framed view. With the bohemian/farmhouse style decor, rich wood floors, eye-catching ceiling woodwork, brick accents, wainscoting, built-ins, and picturesque views, you may never want to leave the house.

The space
The first floor, which includes: 2 Bedrooms (one bedroom is a twin cozy bedroom on the first floor, second bedroom is a queen size bed on the second floor.) There are 2 full bathrooms, large living room and dining room, kitchen with breakfast nook, plus washer and dryer. (1200 square feet.)

Perfect for a single person, couples (or a couple with infant) over a longer stay (Dec 2-Mid April 2024 ). 30-day minimum.

Additional bedrooms and bathrooms on the second floor available upon request and for a negotiated price; otherwise, the partial second and full third floors are closed off for the winter renter.

Priced for monthly rentals - a significant discount is offered.

Limited to 2 adult guests (young child/infant is fine) for a gentle, serene vibe. Book now for a warm winter stay!

The home is well cared for, clean, quaint, and quiet with amazing views of the ocean and seawall, just across the street. The heart of the home – the kitchen – is newly remodeled, with glowing, freshly installed pine floors.

If you’re staying in the winter, the house is well-heated via either oil or electric heat, but it can get a little chilly, as the temperatures outside drop below freezing. Turn it up, put on some cozy socks, grab a snuggly blanket, and enjoy this most amazing place to watch a winter storm sweep over the ocean! And… let us know if we can send a snow shoveler to you (it costs extra, but is well worth it).

You will see this classic home in many of the old historic pictures of Lanesville (a part of Gloucester and just 1/2 mile from Halibut point and the Rockport county line). This unique artists’ community offers a perfect place to retreat. It's an easy, 3-minute walk from the house to the small row of stores Lanesville offers, which includes a liquor store with a great wine and beer selection and last-minute snacks, Prana Salon to get spiffed up a bit, and the Cove Cafe to enjoy a coffee, breakfast, or lunch. You’ll feel like you stepped back in time… in a good way.
