Perched on a granite cliff along the picturesque coastline of Rockport, 3 Gap Head offers a rare opportunity to own an exceptional waterfront property. The location on Straitsmouth Point is nothing short of spectacular, perfectly positioned between the renowned twin lighthouses of Thacher Island to the South and the endless horizon of the Atlantic Ocean to the North, a rare find among coastal homes. 3 Gap Head exudes the charm of a classic coastal Cape. Offered for the first time in six decades, this extensively renovated and impeccably maintained home has been a sanctuary for gatherings, celebrations, and intimate moments by the sea. Here, the rhythmic sound of crashing waves and salty air create an ambiance both serene and invigorating. Whether you envision cozy evenings by the fire, leisurely lobster bakes on the terrace, or sun-kissed days exploring tidal pools at the water's edge, 3 Gap Head promises cherished memories for generations to come.
