New addition to property in 2012! Enhanced water views and now 6.5 bedrooms, 3 full baths and 2 half baths. Sleeps 9 adults and up to four kids. This one-of-a kind property in the tranquil South End of Rockport, has been a family summer retreat for over
a century and is now brought into 2012 with a new addition which adds another new bedroom, playroom (with sleeping space), kitchen/ dining/office area and a full bath and two half baths.
The property is privately situated off a small lane that proved attractive to the U.S Government during WWII, enough so for an observation tower to be built to watch for potential invaders from the sea. This tower is still standing and is a well known landmark
to boaters and fishermen. The renovated kitchen in the main house has gleaming granite counters and appliances as well as updated bath with oversize shower which brings modern conveniences which complement the antique charm of the rest of the house. A large
dining room with interior grill area opens onto a sunroom, which leads to a deck with lovely views. The living room has large bay window with waterviews and alternate sleeping on the pull-out sofa. The second floor has 3 bedrooms and another full bath (shower
over tub), and the 3rd floor has 2 more small bedrooms with views.
The new addition is on the other side of the shared laundry area on the main level. The first floor consists of the new queen master suite with a full bath with double sinks and whirlpool tub, and separate shower, as well as a den with a 51 inch flat screen
TV and office area. The second floor consists of a new granite kitchen and dining area (with 6 chairs) and half bath and deck with views of Thatcher Island with its twin lighthouses. The third floor has the best views of all and is a large "play room" with
a wet bar and half bath and another deck with amazing views. There is airconditioning on the first and third floors of the addition.
