    What's special

    Uniqueness abounds in this charming antique Colonial located in downtown Gloucester which features an extraordinary addition (3 levels plus a loft) that was built and designed by a celebrated Boston architect in 1997 for his personal use, with multiple gallery spaces to display the owner's extensive collection of folk art and other treasures. Imported ceramic tile floors in the "Florida Room" and in the full bath, together with custom shower tiles, were handcrafted by a Sicilian artisan. This one-of-a-kind property has 4 wood-burning fireplaces, spiral staircases, a 2-story "Great Room" with soaring high ceilings, a rooftop observatory deck with yearround views of Good Harbor Beach and Salt Island, custom built-ins & other many other thoughtful and surprising features throughout. There's plenty of work to be done to update this stunning home but you don't want to miss this opportunity to own a true work of art!
