One of the most iconic locations on Gloucester’s back shore located 30 seconds from Good Harbor Beach at the start of beautiful Atlantic Road, part of the Essex Coastal Scenic Byway. This oceanfront c1900 residence has unobstructed water views of the rugged coast that lines the east side of Gloucester. Idyllically situated above the water, this quintessential, Shingle-style, 8-bedroom home has a casual elegance accentuated by many historical details. The fir floors, original light fixtures, dentil moldings, leaded glass windows, elevator, and an exquisite wrap around covered porch facing the ocean remain unspoiled. Containing 4,800 square feet of living on three levels, the home has gracious size rooms, most with ocean views, and high ceilings. The landscaped grounds slope gently towards the water with natural rock outcroppings and robust coastal gardens. 7 Bass Rocks Road is a perfect place to entertain, enjoy al fresco dining and savor the salt air. Closing after 10/15/22.
