About This Property

Perched high above its own private beach, this waterfront property commands a prime location on coveted Marblehead Neck. The 5 bedroom, 5.5 bath home fully inhabits its majestic maritime setting, with sweeping views of the Atlantic Ocean anchored by a focal point of Tinker's Island, elegant and simple interior spaces that welcome the sea and sky and an open floor plan that invites casual living and elegant entertaining.
