About this property
The Castle at Lakeside
The Castle house is located on a quiet street inside the gated community of Lakeside near The Williams Tennis Courts,The Memorial Garden, and the Grindley Aquatic Center (the pool) which opened in July of 2017. The pool is just a two minute walk on 6th Street just beyond the tennis courts.
The spacious home features a library in the turret, curved staircase, and updated kitchen. In addition, the first floor features a family room, large dining room, bedroom with queen size bed, laundry room, and full bath. The master bedroom is upstairs and features a king size ergonomic bed with a remote control to raise and lower the head and feet. Besides the library and remodeled full bath, there are two other bedrooms upstairs that sleeps 6 people. Bed linens and bath towels provided. (Beach towels are not provided).
Large front yard with off street parking for 3 vehicles make this a preferred location for family gatherings. You are welcome to use the bicycles and the gas grill. The Lakeside community is a step back in time to a place where values, traditions, and family remain the focus.
In addition to the book store, several shops and boutiques, movie theatre, parks, beach area, mini golf, and shuffleboard, families can also enjoy live evening entertainment, art classes, worship services, picnics in the park, and a variety of exhibits and art shows throughout the summer. Bicycles, walking, and golf carts are the main modes of transportation at Lakeside.
During the off season (fall thru spring) the house makes a great venue for Girls' Night Out. The town of Marblehead is home to many restaurants and boutiques. Enjoy a massage or take a group painting class. There are no gate fees during the off-season.

Why they chose this property
We are the fourth owners of The Castle. The original owner, John Wonnell, started building it in 1936 and completed his masterpiece in 1963. Mr. Wonnell cut and chiseled each stone for the house by hand. His craftsmanship is seen throughout the home. This home is a stop on the weekly Historical Tram Tour at Lakeside.
