Overview

Description

Beautifully sited on inner Rockport Harbor with desirable western views, this historic waterfront residence is located within easy walking distance of Rockport village. The five- bedroom house, built circa 1880 as a sea captain's house, has charming period details including elaborate plasterwork, woodwork and an original tin ceiling. Renovations conceived by a renowned Camden architect brought the house up to modern standards while maintaining the historic character of the building. The .92± acre property is beautifully landscaped and the lawn slopes gently to the water's edge with 157± feet of accessible rocky shoreline. There is an attached two-story studio/barn with a bath and kitchenette on each level, a well-built deep-water dock, a small waterfront storage shed, and steps leading to a pocket pebble beach.
