Your direct oceanfront oasis awaits. Meander down Mussel Point Road and find this classic shingle-style retreat just waiting to pamper your senses. Complimenting the home's handsome stone covered foundation, the rocky shoreline beckons one to cast for stripers or easily launch a kayak. Inside, the warm yet open floor plan fascinates with ocean views from virtually every window, always engaging you and your guests. Each morning, relax on one of the generous decks or screened porch and greet the sun as it breaks over Eastern Point and Gloucester’s outer harbor. Then, at day’s end, watch the moonlight dance on the water. The master suite and either of the ensuite guest bedrooms ensure maximum privacy. And the ocean view office will make working from home delightful. Privacy and magic abound on Mussel Point Way.
