Description

"GREY GOOSE" - Long before these summer cottages had street numbers, every house was known by its name. Even mail was addressed "Grey Goose," Salt Island Road, Gloucester, Massachusetts. This intoxicating property is perched high on a granite cliff overlooking Salt Island and the Atlantic Ocean beyond. Panoramic views, salt air, and the sound of crashing surf thirty-five feet below welcome you. Offered for the first time in nearly five decades, this 1930s oceanfront summer cottage retains its charm..."GREY GOOSE" - Long before these summer cottages had street numbers, every house was known by its name. Even mail was addressed "Grey Goose," Salt Island Road, Gloucester, Massachusetts. This intoxicating property is perched high on a granite cliff overlooking Salt Island and the Atlantic Ocean beyond. Panoramic views, salt air, and the sound of crashing surf thirty-five feet below welcome you. Offered for the first time in nearly five decades, this 1930s oceanfront summer cottage retains its charm and classic features such as original granite fireplace and hardwood floors. Between Good Harbor Beach in Gloucester and Long Beach in Rockport, the location is spectacular. More than anything "Grey Goose" has been, and will continue to be, the magical setting that weaves together the fabric of our most precious memories…family gatherings, celebrations, weddings, good friends, lobster bakes, returning from the beach sun kissed and salty . . . .
