Waterfront Home! Stunning sunsets, swimming, paddling!

Located on the waterfront of Little River (offshoot of Annisquam) in Gloucester, Cape Ann, sweeping ocean river views, gorgeous sunsets, and a direct water access dock perfect for hanging out and watching the tide come and go. Swim to the raft, fish, kayak and paddle board (at high and medium high tide)! Kids love to look for crabs and snails at low tide. Watch the ospreys, egrets, herons and bald eagles fish. Nap, read or dine on the porch or in the patio/yard area overlooking the water. Close proximity to beaches - Stage Fort beach and park (5 min drive) and Good Harbor and Wingersheek beaches (12 min drive). Explore the many cafes, shops, bakeries, restaurants and nightlife in Gloucester center. Short drive to Halibat State park and Downtown Rockport.

Lots of beds for your whole family! There are 3 bedrooms on the top floor and a fourth bedroom and bonus den/office on the bottom floor that can used for sleeping too. The three main bedrooms are on the top floor along with the kitchen, family room, full bath and porch. One bedroom overlooks the river with a king bed. A second bedroom has two twin beds side by side and a third twin bed, perfect for kids. The third has a full size bunk bed and a free standing twin bed.
