A sweet oasis tucked away on a private road that runs parallel to the Blynman Bridge/canal feeding into the Annisquam River and Gloucester harbor. The home was completely gutted and redesigned in 2016. Detailed interior period moldings were stripped to the bare wood, reinstalled and painted, maintaining their original charm. All hardwood and tile floors, 3 bedrooms 2 baths, HVAC system, custom kitchen and a fresh coat of paint make it move in ready. Full, insulated, concrete floor basement with sump pump, laundry and plenty of room for storage or living space. Water views from the front of the house and park benches across the street for boat watching. New roof, ext. paint and prof. landscaped fenced yard with hydrangeas, perennials, bluestone patio, and room for outdoor dining and more. Tandem parking for 2 in driveway, and 1 on street deeded parking spot. If you love the national "America in Bloom" award winning Stacey Blvd, beaches, eateries and Stage Ft. Park, come on home!
