House in Gloucester, MA
Reasons to book
About this house rental
Renovated in 2025 with a bright, nautical beach theme, the entire downstairs is yours: two bedrooms, a bathroom, a living room, a dining area, and your own private entrance. The upstairs is separately occupied and completely off limits, so your space stays private from the moment you arrive.
Whether you're planning a beach weekend, a family trip, or a relaxing escape by the sea, you'll have a comfortable, convenient home base with the best of Gloucester right outside the door.
PERFECT FOR
- Couples wanting a quiet coastal weekend away
- Families with kids (the bunk room is always a hit)
- Small groups and friends exploring Cape Ann
- Beach lovers, foodies, and whale-watching travelers
- Anyone who wants to be near the water without oceanfront prices
THE SPACE
Bedroom 1 — A queen-size bed and a wall-mounted flat-screen TV. The perfect place to unwind after a day in the sun.
Bedroom 2 — Two bunk beds and its own wall-mounted TV, ideal for kids, extra guests, or larger families.
Living Room — Built for downtime, with a big 65-inch TV, a video game console, an electric fireplace table for a cozy coastal glow, and a sofa that converts into an extra sleeping space. Movie night, game night, or feet-up-and-relax night — take your pick.
Bathroom — Upgraded well beyond your average guest suite: heated floors, a wireless Bluetooth speaker fan, and blue LED accent lighting for a spa-like feel.
Dining & Refreshments — A microwave, refrigerator, and coffee maker, plus a dining table with seating for four. Great for morning coffee, snacks, drinks, and light meals.
A quick, honest note: this suite does not have a full kitchen or stove — and here, that's more of a feature than a drawback. You're just minutes from some of the best seafood and restaurants in New England, so most guests happily skip cooking and eat their way through town. We mention it up front so your stay is exactly what you expect.
THE LOCATION — THIS IS THE STAR
Gloucester is a classic New England seaport, and you're right in the middle of it. Downtown restaurants, fresh-off-the-boat seafood, shops, art galleries, and the working waterfront are all just a short trip away.
Beaches
- Good Harbor Beach — about 7 minutes away
- Half Moon Beach — about 7 minutes away
- Wingaersheek Beach — about 15 minutes away
Nearby on Cape Ann
- Whale watching tours just 5 minutes away from Gloucester Harbor
- Rocky Neck, one of America's oldest working art colonies
- Historic Hammond Castle overlooking the sea
- The shops and galleries of nearby Rockport and Bearskin Neck
- Harbor views, lighthouses, and miles of classic coastline to explore
Between the beaches, the harbor, the seafood, and the small-town coastal charm, there's more than enough to fill a weekend — or a whole week.
PARKING & GETTING IN
Guest parking is at the back of the house. One dedicated space is provided, and up to two cars can fit if parked tandem-style and pulled forward. Additional street parking may be available nearby depending on the season, time of day, and local rules.
Finding us is easy: look for the cream-colored house with black shutters. Pull into the driveway, head toward the back, and turn right — the grey patio and your private basement entrance will be right there.
GOOD TO KNOW
- This is a private downstairs suite. The upstairs is a separate, occupied living space that is off limits and not part of the rental. The stairs to the second floor are locked, and the downstairs storage room is locked and restricted.
- For safety and property security, there are exterior security cameras at the front and back of the house. There are no cameras inside the guest suite or in any private indoor areas.
