Built in 1920, and owned by only a few families since, this condominium lives like a single family and delivers a noble presentation inside and out. Your welcome home will take your breath away, as you enter to behold a wall of windows directly facing the sea. This residence is handsome in its old world details, yet refreshed to a contemporary, coastal aesthetic, and enjoys many recent upgrades and renovations. Almost every room has a sweeping, awe-inspiring view of the ocean crashing on the rocky coastline below. 4 large bedrooms accommodate comfortably, including the master bedroom with walk-in closet and brand new master bath. Take in the view in several private spaces - on your enclosed stone porch, spacious open deck off the kitchen, or private yard. Shore Road is widely regarded amongst locals as one of the most beautiful roads to walk on the North Shore. Truly an extraordinary offering
