Ocean Ave
Marblehead, MA

This Georgian Colonial sits at the southernmost side of Marblehead Neck. The North elevation of the home faces the street, allowing the front facade to orient to a secluded beach. The elaborate front door entry, a replica from a home in Newport, Rhode Island, was recreated from photographs and original drawings to achieve the classical ornamentation including a hand-crafted pineapple. The house was expanded to accommodate a growing family, and the third floor, which was previously uninhabitable, was developed into three bedrooms and a bathroom. On the primary level, the kitchen and formal spaces boast the most views to the ocean while the second level holds the master suite and guest suite.
