It isn’t often that a property like this presents itself for sale in Marblehead, Massachusetts. Boasting more than 5,300 square feet of living space, incomparable ocean views, soaring open spaces and a rare private beach, this seaside contemporary was brought to a whole new level after more than $2 million in renovations.
Affording sweeping vistas to the Boston skyline from virtually every room, this incredible property has one of the longest, if not THE longest water frontages in all of Marblehead, with over 400 feet of water and sand from where you can launch your jet skis or catamarans right from your own yard. We are talking about an entirely different lifestyle than most Marblehead properties, with amazing, direct water and beach access.
With decks and patios spanning the entire length of the house, the open-air living spaces are so remarkable that one might be tempted to stay outdoors. You would, however, be remiss in skipping a trip inside, for the interior of this home is well-matched - and with panoramic views from virtually every single room, you can enjoy the views in all seasons. A thoughtfully wide-open floor plan is enhanced by soaring cathedral ceilings, floor-to-ceiling windows and exquisite wood flooring throughout.
The chefs in the family will salivate over the gourmet kitchen, once the filming site for the PBS cooking show “Ciao Italia.”
This incredible space is enhanced by coffered ceilings, recessed lighting, a marble-topped island, multiple seating areas and a wall of windows.
The formal living room features a fireplace, multiple French doors, a built-in window seat with a Palladian window, and a striking mezzanine with walls of glass and doors to the second-story deck.
An eye-popping, climate-controlled wine cellar with stone flooring, a tasting table and water vistas is directly across the hall.
A more secluded office, with its own separate entrance and French doors, affords the perfect spot for a quiet home office or leisurely family room. And of course working is easy when you can just look up to enjoy the fantastic views.
Just adjacent, a spacious sitting room with a full bath would make for a convenient master or guest suite.
Upstairs, find four bedrooms. While clearly designed with luxury living and entertaining in mind, this home is simultaneously warm and comfortable. Despite having all of the amenities and qualities one would expect from a home of this caliber, it also emotes the feel and warmth of a well-appointed beach house. “Can you imagine yourself living here, in a home that is so outstanding yet still somewhat casual and relaxed?
Pamper yourself in the grand master bedroom, complete with vast closets, a luxurious bath, and great deck access to catch those fabulous views first thing in the morning, or under a starry sky in the evening.
There is also separate, private guest suite or second master bedroom.
It is an incredible beachfront existence is all about a certain lifestyle, something that is actually quite unique to Marblehead.”
A coastal community of nearly 20,000 residents, Marblehead is immersed in its history. It began as a fishing village and evolved with some shoe industry. Marblehead is famous for their contributions to the American Revolution and the Civil War. In the late 19th century, the town attracted the yachting community with its exceptional harbor. After World War II, there was a population boom and the town became a bedroom community for Salem and Boston. Marblehead is the birthplace of the American Navy and Marine Corps Aviation and a popular yachting destination.
Today, Marblehead and its historic harbor are known for the crooked, narrow streets with spectacular architecture of preserved colonial and Victorian homes. Residents and visitors take advantage of the boating and fishing resources and the town benefits from the tourists that visit in the summer months.
Marblehead offers a variety of events throughout the year, including jazz and arts festivals, a tall ships cruise, regatta and race week, and a Christmas walk. Marblehead is blessed with numerous parks, playgrounds and beaches for the enjoyment of all.
