About this property

River's Edge Cottage Gloucester

  • This bright and spacious vacation home blends modern comfort with classic New England charm, creating the perfect setting for a relaxing getaway. Thoughtfully updated while maintaining its character, the home offers inviting living spaces filled with natural light and a warm, welcoming atmosphere.

    ************

    The fully updated kitchen is both stylish and functional, featuring a peninsula that’s perfect for casual meals or gathering while cooking. A separate dining area provides ample space for sit-down dinners and memorable conversations. Just beyond, step out onto the private deck overlooking the river—an ideal spot to enjoy morning coffee or evening meals at the outdoor dining table, with comfortable seating for taking in the peaceful water views.

    The home includes three well-appointed bedrooms and 1.5 baths, comfortably accommodating families or small groups. The modern full bathroom features both a shower and tub, offering convenience whether you’re starting your day or winding down after an adventure.

    Outside, the spacious yard invites you to relax, play, or launch your next outing on the water. With direct river access, it’s perfect for kayaking—timing is key, so plan to head out two hours before high tide and return two hours after for the best experience.

    Located on a quiet residential street, the home offers a peaceful retreat while still providing easy access to the highway, making it simple to explore the surrounding area. Off-street parking adds extra convenience during your stay.

Property was as pictured but owner did not disclose that there was a tenant in the basement of the house and actually set up so called quiet times after already knowing that we would have 2 small children with us and definitely didn’t appreciate hearing the tenant coming and going all weekend, I will definitely NOT be renting here again as I feel it was very deceitful for him not to say in the beginning that it was a 2 family house and not single family until after I paid and agreed on contract ?
