OH 6/4, 5:30-7pm. Sunshine, surf, sand & tranquility. Your coastal lifestyle & a peaceful community await you. Tucked on a private side street with ocean views, this exceptional 1875 home has been thoughtfully reimagined while honoring its architecture. Soaring 10-foot ceilings, a grand staircase, wide white oak floors & curated designer finishes create timeless elegance. The chef's kitchen features custom cabinetry, quartz counters, a Thermador appliance suite & extensive modern upgrades including premium James Hardy siding. Sunlight & ocean views fill every level, while the expansive farmer's porch captures sea breezes & stunning skies. Set on a rare .47-acre double-access lot outside the flood zone, near to beaches, boating, many outdoor activities, & the nearby Boston ferry. The lower level is setup for an inlaw suite. A home designed to welcome you back from the pace of the city, the demands of travel or work--with ocean air, timeless craftsmanship & understated luxury.
