Step into a piece of history overlooking Gloucester Harbor. Built in 1741 as a single family home, the property is currently used as an inn/multi unit property offering an expansive 4610 square feet of living space. Large exposed beams and unique features throughout. Conversion back to a single family would create a very stately captains house. Discover the enduring charm and potential of this historic Gloucester residence in the heart of America’s oldest seaport.
