Rockport, Massachusetts
This historical, 19th-century waterfront house is located in the heart of Rockport directly on Rockport's quiet Old Harbor. Exposed beams and hardwood floors throughout with incredible panoramic views of Sandy Bay and The Old Harbor. The living room, dining room and deck all face the water. You are as close as you can get to the sea. This historical property was the old customs house at the turn of the century. Ships stopped at the wharf across the bay to clear customs here. Original beams and floors are lovingly maintained.
Enjoy spectacular sunsets and ocean breezes from our 2nd floor home. One queen bedroom, full bath, well equipped kitchen complete this idyllic pied a terre. The village galleries, shops, and restaurants, are all within walking distance in the heart of Rockport's Cultural District. Enjoy your coffee on our harbor front deck with bistro table, watch the panorama of seaside comings and goings, the quaint buildings on Bearskin Neck and Motif #1 along with the boating activities of the Old Harbor. You can launch your kayak from our property. At sea level, you will enjoy another private small patio for dining and sitting with steps leading to the water and private sandy beach. Across the bay, hear the music of the Sunday summer evening's concerts or walk a short distance to bandstand concerts at Back Beach. We are just a minute walk from Rockport’s stunning new Shalin Liu Performance Center and The Rockport Art Assn.
The commuter train to Boston is a 10 minute walk. Back and Front beach are only two minutes away and granite steps lead to the Old Harbor from the property. Boston and Logan Paul Airport are 40 miles. Taxi service is available.

Nestled in the heart of old Harbour, Rockport is this little gem. My husband and I stayed for five days to get away from the humdrum of our normal life. We were a walk away from everything we could need- including the beach, shopping, and some excellent restaurants. Peggy’s apartment is well appointed with phenomenal views. Makes you want to live at the shore permanently. We will be back !
My wife and I loved Peggy’s place. Amazing location in the middle of Bearskin Neck and a beautiful apartment with a fantastic view. Would stay again!
In the heart of the tourist center. Convenient parking nearby
This is a perfect property for two people. The view alone was worth the price. This is a very clean, well- equipped house. 10 feet from the water. We hope to go back.
Lovely to be harborside, village living, people watching. Much to do, see and experience. Sweet apartment, had everything we needed, felt so relaxed. Thanks Peggy!
Perfect and well equipped apartment for two. We really enjoyed experiencing the quaint little town of Rockport and it’s beautiful surroundings. Thank you for sharing your home with us!
Beautiful experience
We loved everything about our stay at the Waterfront apt. With views of the water on three sides and the most spectacular sunsets, we couldn't have asked for a better location. The apartment is cozy and tasteful, and is located near all the shops and many restaurants, for easy strolling and dining.
Nice getaway.
What a perfect place to stay for our 25th anniversary! Peggy’s place was right in the cute town of Rockport. The view was beautiful, the cottage was adorable, and the location couldn’t have been better. I didn’t want to leave! We will definitely be back!
We had a wonderful time. Excellent property for a viewing the boats in the harbor, people on the beaches and the beautiful sunsets.. Close to shopping and dining.
We had a great few days and were able to explore many walks right from the property and the beach was just a third of a mile away. The town was just getting going for the summer and more restaurants open by the weekend. This was a great introduction to Rockport and we had a fun sail on a schooner down in Gloucester as well
