However, the home has been expanded from its original floor plan (which only consisted of two bedrooms and a living room) to include a modern chef’s kitchen with an island, a dining room with space to host holiday meals, and an additional primary suite with a walk-in closet and spa-like bathroom."

On the Market: A Grand Oceanside Manor in Gloucester

“Living in Cape Ann is a piece of paradise,” the home owner says. “We have culture, natural beauty, are so close to Boston, and have amazing world-class beaches.”

This huge European-style manor might be called “Terra Firma,” but it’s nothing short of heavenly. Soak in the sight of those grand entertaining rooms, the stately columns, and the chandeliers that drip like diamonds from ceilings with intricate moldings. The 8,441 square-foot, four bed, and four and-a-half bath Gloucester estate might be perched between the Atlantic and the sea of green that is the Bass Rocks Golf Course, but no one would fault you for thinking you’re in the Italian countryside.  READ MORE >

No need to fret over a library card or overdue fees when you reside in this home, which is Rockport’s former public library. 

If going to a great library feels like coming home, this dwelling should be the perfect fit for you. Beyond the thousands of stories the building used to house, the edifice itself has a history of its own: Famed steel magnate and philanthropist Andrew Carnegie commissioned the construction in 1904 to serve as Rockport’s Public Library. While the library has since moved across town, Carnegie’s contribution still stands, now as a stately private residence.

Once a Carnegie Library, 
Now a Historic Home.

HOME OF THE DAY: 

When Gail and David Vastola bought their home in Rockport, Mass., they knew they were buying a piece of history. Commissioned by Andrew Carnegie in 1904, the building was the town library until 1993. The structure sat empty until the Vastolas purchased it in 2007.

‘It was in terrible shape,’ says Dr. Vastola, a 75-year-old physician. ‘It was full of mold and mildew. We had to bring a hazmat team in to clean it out.’ The couple paid $540,000 for the property in an auction and invested approximately $1.5 million in the reconstruction and restoration.   Read More >
