Cripple Cove Apartment in historic home across from harbour in Gloucester, MA

October is coming and that means that Haunted Happenings in Salem, Massachusetts is in full swing. come stay in Gloucester and take the train to Salem. It is a 15 to 20 minute train ride from Gloucester and puts you right in the middle of all the spookey action. Bring your costume!

If Salem is not a draw, just come and relax and enjoy all that Gloucester has to offer in the fall. Then this desirable East Gloucester apartment in a historic home is perfect for you! It sits directly across from one of Gloucester's working maritime harbors, Cripple Cove. It is a scenic 15 minute walk (.07 mile) or 5 minute drive to Good Harbor Beach Footbridge and Gloucester's famous Harbor Loop with the Fishermen's Memorial.

You have so many choices: enjoy vibrant downtown Gloucester, Rocky Neck Artist's Colony, golf, so many great restaurants, shopping, museums, art galleries, and the hiking...there are so many beautiful trails, boating, whales watch tours, sailing, and kayaking, and so much more. Easy highway, local ferry, train and bus access.

This unique apartment adorns a lovely garden which serves as entrance to the second floor which leads into a combo kitchen/ living room with harbor views. Full bath with view into the garden is off of the living room. Head up to the third floor and there are two bedrooms, one with a queen bed, the other with two twin beds. Laundry in basement.

Parking is available in the home's driveway, in front or across at the harbor parking lot. Spend relaxing time reading, playing or just relaxing in one of several garden rooms.

A brand new playground just across from the home where you can watch all the harbor activities.

Sleeps 4.
