Seller Motivated! Perched high on Gallops Hill, this historic gem offers unmatched privacy and sweeping ocean views from every single room. Sunlight floods through expansive new picture windows, filling each space with warmth and the beauty of the sea. Work from home with an inspiring view or hop on the ferry—just 20 minutes to Logan Dock or under 30 to Long Wharf for city adventures. When it’s time to relax, stroll to the beach with resident parking, hit the nearby yacht club, or enjoy waterfront dining just minutes away. The property also abuts Fort Revere with a trail at the edge of the driveway, where the seller would often have a morning coffee while soaking in the views. Recent upgrades include a 50-year storm-rated roof, remodeled baths, new Stuv America wood stove for those cold winter nights, home automation, refinished floors, new doors, and more. Plus, the walk-out lower level offers expansion potential—and best of all, no flood insurance required.
