Nestled on the shores of Rockport, Massachusetts, a town synonymous with quintessential New England charm and striking coastal vistas, a unique property emerges on the market for the first time in sixty years. Located at 3 Gap Head Road, this 2818 square foot residence is more than just a house; it’s a testament to family heritage and coastal beauty.


Rockport is renowned for its rugged granite coastline and postcard-worthy scenery, embodying the essence of New England’s maritime spirit. The town offers a blend of scenic coastal views, historic architecture, and a vibrant arts community that continuously attracts both artists and admirers. Visitors and residents enjoy the Rockport Art Association & Museum, the lively Shalin Liu Performance Center, and the charming streets of downtown, filled with boutique shops and seafood eateries. The Bearskin Neck area, with its array of small shops set in historic buildings, further enriches the town’s picturesque quality. Outdoor enthusiasts revel in activities from hiking the Atlantic Path to whale watching off the coast, ensuring there’s always something to captivate any interest.


The property at 3 Gap Head Road offers an unparalleled living experience with its breathtaking water views on both sides — a rarity in waterfront homes. According to Tom Janis, the listing agent, “What is unique about this house is that it has water views from every room, which is not common as most waterfront homes only have this feature on one side.”

The front of the house faces south-southeast, presenting unobstructed views of the Twin Lights, two iconic lighthouses situated on a nearby island. Residents can enjoy spectacular sunrises and moonrises here, watching the moon ascend from the Atlantic Ocean’s horizon in a display of natural theater.

​

Conversely, the rear of the house faces north-northwest, overlooking Rockport harbor where the sun sets in a spectacle of colors, casting a golden glow that dances on the water’s surface.
