From the owner

UNPLUG, UNWIND & UPLIFT your spirits! No TV (wifi only). For those seeking to truly rest, relax, rejuvenate and contemplate their journey on earth.

Step back in time with this 60's Boho, funky-style studio. Creative objets d'art and romantic lighting creates a very cozy, dark atmosphere (a petite solarium off the living room brings some natural light.) Two walls are covered in vintage, sculpted carpeting. Charming outdoor covered deck and garden areas allow for dining al fresco.

Steps away from the working waterfront and ideally situated in the heart of E. Gloucester between two beautiful beaches (Good Harbor and Niles). Walking distance to downtown, waterfront restaurants, Rocky Neck Art Colony, North Shore Art Assoc. and Gloucester Stage Co. Close to train (1 mi). Right in the middle of all the action while quiet and privately tucked away.

LIVING ROOM - Couch, oversized-chair, wifi & DVD payer. No TV, no A/C. 2 fans keep the studio cool.

SLEEPING AREA is located at back of living room in secluded corner with a full-size (double) bed and comfy memory foam mattress.

PETITE SOLARIUM - Small area off living room with twin bed. Strong morning light from slanted roof with large glass-like ceiling (for early risers).

KITCHEN, fully equipped with coffeemaker, gas range, fridge, microwave, toaster, washer/dryer and seating for 2.

European flair bathroom boasts a large, old-fashioned claw-foot tub with a hand-held shower and skylight above tub (no stand-up shower).

OUTDOOR COVERED DECK for dining al fresco. Seating for 2.

PRIVATE GARDEN with wrought iron patio set.

LOCATION: 149 E. Main Street, Gloucester, MA
