About This Home
Waterfront living with historic charm. Once a working mill, the structure has been transformed into a warm and inviting home, preserving its architectural heritage while embracing contemporary updates. The open-concept layout offers sunlit living spaces that showcase panoramic vistas of Annisquam River, Wingaersheek Beach, and Ipswich Bay. Whether you’re unwinding on the expansive deck, paddling across the water for a beach day, or gathering clams right from your shoreline, this property delivers a true coastal lifestyle. Inside, the ambiance is both airy and intimate, perfect for hosting family or enjoying quiet evenings. The main house exudes a nautical elegance, with a layout that evokes the feeling of life aboard a luxury vessel. A separate apartment above the garage provides private accommodations for guests, and the partially finished upper level offers opportunities to tailor the home to your future needs.
