Walk through this home's blue gate into the best life has to offer in Cape Ann. Sharing all the unassuming charm of Lanesville itself, this recently renovated two-story coastal farmhouse dazzles and surprises at every turn, with its sprawling "secret" gardens, delightful backyard "living room", detached cottage, and stunning interior. The main floor is open and flowing with an inviting family room with vaulted ceiling, fully updated kitchen, dining room and living room. The sunny and bright second floor offers 3 bedrooms, 2 full baths and laundry. The home's orientation creates a wonderfully private and quiet setting, perfect for enjoying the patio and hot tub or garden or for gathering to play games in the classic New England cottage, once the barn. This meticulously maintained family compound is a 5-minute walk to Lanesville village and beautiful Lane's Cove, and moments from Folly Cove, Halibut Point State Park, and the area's many quarries and trails leading into ancient Dogtown.
