About this property

Magnolia By The Sea-Attractive home, large yard & deck. Walk to Magnolia Beach

Enjoy the wooded setting, beautiful gardens and privacy of our family vacation home. Our 4 bedroom, 2 bathroom home includes a large family room, well appointed eat-in kitchen, basement rec room with pool table and queen sofa bed, spacious deck and huge yard. We're a 15 minute drive from two of the most beautiful beaches in New England, Wingaersheek and Good Harbor. Whale watch, deep sea fishing, museums, shops and restaurants in downtown Gloucester are a 10 minute ride.

The large, well stocked eat-in kitchen has both a dining table and an island, a double oven, four burner stovetop, microwave, toaster oven, toaster, coffee maker, dishwasher and kid's dishes. Whether you are an avid cook or prefer to throw something on the grill, you will find everything you need.

The comfortable, vaulted ceiling family room has a Smart TV and is stocked with games and books for adults and children, and has plenty of room to relax. Large windows and sliding glass doors allow the sun to pour in, and provides views of the variety of birds that love the birdbaths and trees that surround the house.

You will want to spend a lot of time on the large deck which is a great place to read a book, have cocktails or a serve a meal. In addition to patio furniture, there is a built-in picnic table that seats 10 and a gas grill. The deck overlooks a beautiful yard with gardens, a Koi pond, a big grassy area to play games on, and our own wiffle ball field. We have cornhole, bocce and other yard games available.

The Primary bedroom has a King bed and large jetted tub. The other three bedrooms have queen beds. All rooms have closets and dressers. There is also a queen sofa bed in the lower level rec room

Enjoy the quiet residential neighborhood. Take a short walk to sunsets on Magnolia Pier, walks on Magnolia Beach, strolls along the ocean on Shore Road and to visit shops and restaurants on Lexington Avenue.

If you want to explore the area, you will have easy access to the historic towns of Salem, Manchester-by-the-Sea, Rockport, Essex, Ipswich and Boston.

We have available for your use plenty of things you'll need for the beach including beach chairs, beach umbrella, cooler bag, kid's beach toys, beach games, boogie boards and plenty of beach towels. Wingaersheek Beach, Good Harbor Beach and Stage Fort Park all allow you to reserve a parking space up to 10 days in advance. Visit the City of Gloucester official website for more information.

Celebrating 50th Birthday

We were very pleasantly surprised how perfect the Magnolia-by-the-Sea house was for our two families. The 4 adults upstairs and the 2 teenage boys downstairs. The house was in a great location. Traveled to Boston, Salem and enjoyed Gloucester. Walking distance to restaurants, the ocean and the boardwalk. Everything was terrific. House was clean, lots of amenities (including things like tissues and real soap), comfortable beds, lots of towels and kitchen fully equipped. It was perfect for our family birthday celebration and thank the owner for his quick responses, suggestions what to do and follow up. We hope to be back in the future.

Exactly what we needed

This property was perfect for our stay, well-suited for my family which included 2 small children. The kitchen was well-equipped and everyone enjoyed playing in the back yard. The location was quiet, and yet close to where we wanted to be. Thank you!

Delightful Family Vacation!

We absolutely loved our stay in Magnolia! We were so excited just pulling up to see how lovely the gardens were, and then when we went inside we were thrilled to see that the photos didn't do the house justice - it's even nicer than we expected! Perfectly clean, it had just about anything we could think to use in the kitchen (except spices, but that's no big deal), and plenty of towels & beach chairs, boogie boards and tons of fun sports equipment for my nephews to enjoy. My parents declared it the best VRBO we've stayed in so far! Rick was a great host - excellent communication and very helpful. The guide left at the house was also really helpful - especially with regard to the local beach as it's a little trickier to use than just walking down to it. The local restaurants in walking distance were great! We ate down the street half the nights we were there, and a couple of breakfasts too. And it was so nice to take a walk down to the pier every night for the sunset. We might have been a little crowded if all 9 of us had come, but as it was, it was great. My nephew who used the pull-out bed in the basement said it was comfortable. And one nephew even slept on the sofa upstairs and said it was great. All in all, we loved our time in Magnolia! Definitely considering come back again next year!
