About this property

Charming Retreat

Ideal for up to four people, this apartment is located on the first floor of a two-unit building. It has two bedrooms, one full bathroom, a living room and a kitchen with a dinning table. It has a nice fully fenced yard and two parking spaces in front of the house. It is fully furnished and includes all utilities, wi-fi and laundry. Located in a cute cul-de-sac from a quiet neighborhood, just 1/2 mile from the beach and 50 minute drive to Boston. There is a central heat system for the winter and window a/c units for the summer. The laundry is shared and is located in the basement. FYI there is another apartment upstairs and it is occupied by other tenants and there may be some ambient noise that travel through the walls and ceiling (both ways).

Gloucester stay

The apartment is spotless and was obviously updated not too long ago. Walkable to the best Gloucester beach. The hosts were very responsive and helpful. All in all, a great place.

Great stay

The apartment was very nice, clean and a good location. There was an odor in the front room that we couldn't figure out. It reminded me of a wet dog smell. Other than that, everything was good.

Nice Place

Sergio was very responsive and provided all the necessary information before it was needed. Check out requirements were as simple as simple gets. We ate out exclusively during our stay, but note that the kitchen accessories and utensils are basic. Also, be sure to bring your own games, if desired.

What makes this property unique

This is a typical New England house built in the 1800's that has gone through extensive modifications to bring it up to date without losing it's original charm. However, the lay-out of the spaces and the size of the rooms are the same as when they were built originally and this could mean that some rooms are not the size or the lay-out that we expect from a modern house. Take note that the bathroom space may be tight for some people, but it is fully functional. And the main bedroom is located in the attic (third floor). Thank you for letting us be part of your New England experience!
