Sought-after Brier Neck retreat with sweeping views of the Atlantic and Salt Island—reachable at low tide—is offered publicly for the first time since the early 1900s. This expanded Cape perches above tiered, playful grounds that step down to granite ledge and the rhythm of lapping waves. At its heart: a chef’s kitchen, recently remodeled with high-end Miele and Bertazzoni appliances, perfect for effortless entertaining. Minutes to Gloucester’s lively downtown dining, arts, and music; quick access to Route 128; and 28 minutes to Beverly Regional Airport. Daily life here brings sunrise coffee over ocean panoramas, low-tide walks to Salt Island, effortless beach days, and front-row seats for storm watching and moonrises. Multiple outdoor spaces invite easy gatherings, while coastal breezes keep summer evenings cool. Work from home with an ever-changing seascape, launch kayaks or paddleboards nearby, and return to a peaceful, private perch that feels close to everything yet a world away.
