ABOUT GLOUCESTER:
Whether you’re a beachgoer, a foodie, an artist or a history buff (or all of the above), the City of Gloucester has it all. Visitors enjoy spectacular beaches (Wingaersheek, Good Harbor and many more) only a 9-minute drive from the home. Gloucester was one of the first English settlements (1623), predating both Salem in 1626 and Boston in 1630, in what would later become the Massachusetts Bay Colony.

> Most windows of the house have gorgeous panoramic views of beautiful marshes and the Jones River, which flows into the Annisquam River.
> Less than a 10 minute drive to both Wingaersheek Beach and Good Harbor Beach (both of which are widely-considered some of the best beaches in New England). Several other smaller beaches are equally close to the house.
