About this property

The Clipper - 1747 Historic Isaac Pierce House 1st Floor

Historic Isaac Pierce House located in Somerset Historic Village District. This first floor vintage apartment features large rooms with many old historic touches still intact. Enjoy the original wood shutters for light blocking and the craftsmanship as they fold into the walls. The apartment highlights the bustling clipper ship era of Captain James Madison Hood's Shipyard which is now The Village Waterfront Park. Some of the fastest clipper ships in the world were built and docked here. Little pieces of that history are all around during your stay.

MBTA's commuter rail is now available. The South Coast Rail is located 7 miles from the house with service connection directly to Boston's South Station.

New for the summer of 2024 is our oversized stone patio with a covered 16' by 24' pavilion. Enjoy the covered outdoor space and the large outdoor stone fireplace. This space is shared with the second floor apartment The Crows Nest. Book both apartments and the space is exclusively yours.

About the host

Hosted by Craig Sowersby

Host profile image
I come from a very hard working entrepreneurial family. After years of fixing and discovering how important this house is to the community of Somerset, we decided to turn it into a short term rental for all to enjoy.

Why they chose this property

During renovations, we were able to find out how old this house actually is and its historical significance to the Town of Somerset. That is on display throughout the house with resources to help educate you if you are interested during your stay.
