Gloucester: 5 Bedroom Summer Cottage with Sunset Views and Private Beach Access

This finely maintained summer cottage built in the 1820s overlooks Hodgkins Cove in Gloucester Massachusetts.

Unique and special amenities include 2 private beach accesses, consistently spectacular sunset views over Hodgkins Cove and Ipswich Bay, and hiking/walking paths on a 55 acre private estate (yes really!).

It comfortably sleeps 11, has 5 bedrooms, 2 and a half bathrooms, a downstairs porch, and and upstairs nightclub (which is a covered screened in outdoor lounge area great for evening cocktails to watch the sunsets).

It's located 5 miles from Bearskin Neck in downtown Rockport and 5 miles from downtown Gloucester. Both downtowns are filled with very nice, family restaurants, fun boutiques, and art galleries.

Enjoy water views from most rooms in the house. Dogs allowed, smoking not allowed.

FIRST FLOOR:

Kitchen: Everything you need in a kitchen: range, sink, dishwasher, silverware and plates and pans, and of course ocean views.

Bathroom 1: sink, toilet, shower/bath.

Bedroom 1: King bed, closet, ocean views.

Dining Room: Dinner table that seats 10 comfortable.

Living Room: Television, 2 couches, antique day bed, fireplace, and an ocean view.

2ND FLOOR

Bedroom 2 (the door room): 3 twin beds, 1 closet, 2 dressers. Great for kids.

Bathroom 2: sink, toilet, bathtub.

Bedroom 3: full bed, closet, ocean view.

Bedroom 4 (the pillow): a smaller, cozy room with a full bed. Ocean view.

Bedroom 5 (the master): king size bed, closet, half bathroom, sitting area, and of course ocean views.
