Harborfront House Directly on Rockport’s Quiet and Beautiful Old Harbor

Idyllic for a couple or solo travelers who appreciate quality .Our historical, 19th-century comfortable waterfront house is located in the heart of Rockport directly on Rockport's peaceful Old Harbor. Exposed beams and hardwood floors throughout with incredible panoramic views of Sandy Bay and Rockports tranquil Old Harbour. The living room, dining room and deck all face the water. You are as close as you can get to the sea. This historical property was the old customs house at the turn of the century. Ships stopped at the wharf across the bay to clear customs here. Original beams and floors are lovingly maintained.
Savour spectacular sunsets and ocean breezes from our 2nd floor home. One queen bedroom, full bath, well equipped kitchen complete this idyllic pied a terre. Rockport galleries, shops, and restaurants, are all within walking distance in the heart of Rockport's bustling Cultural District. Enjoy your coffee on our harbor front perch.View the panorama of seaside comings and goings, the quaint buildings on Bearskin Neck and Motif #1 along with the boating activities of Rockports Old Harbor. You can launch your kayak from our seaside property. Across the bay, hear the music of the Sunday summer evening's concerts .We are just a minute walk from Rockport’s stunning Shalin Liu Performance Center and The Rockport Art Assn.
The commuter train to Boston is a 10 minute walk. Back and Front beach are only a short walk from our home.

If you are looking for a lovely vacation by the sea directly on the water we look forward to sharing our artful pied a terre with you.
