Beautiful Sunsets

The fully updated kitchen is both stylish and functional, featuring a peninsula that’s perfect for casual meals or gathering while cooking. A separate dining area provides ample space for sit-down dinners and memorable conversations. Just beyond, step out onto the private deck overlooking the river—an ideal spot to enjoy morning coffee or evening meals at the outdoor dining table, with comfortable seating for taking in the peaceful water views.

The home includes three well-appointed bedrooms and 1.5 baths, comfortably accommodating families or small groups. The modern full bathroom features both a shower and tub, offering convenience whether you’re starting your day or winding down after an adventure.

Outside, the spacious yard invites you to relax, play, or launch your next outing on the water. With direct river access, it’s perfect for kayaking—timing is key, so plan to head out two hours before high tide and return two hours after for the best experience.

Located on a quiet residential street, the home offers a peaceful retreat while still providing easy access to the highway, making it simple to explore the surrounding area. Off-street parking adds extra convenience during your stay.

Really enjoyed our stay here in Gloucester! The house was clean, comfortable and had everything we needed. Great location and easy to get around from, and check-in was nice and straightforward. Would definitely recommend and would happily stay again!
