On the Cove is a spacious three-room apartment is located directly on Lanes Cove in Lanesville (Gloucester) with spectacular ocean views from every room and is literally steps to the water’s edge. It has a private entrance, full kitchen, living room, bedroom with queen bed, off-street parking, private patio with custom granite fire pit and yard.
On the Cove (our house and apartment) was used as a movie set in 2017. You can search for "Katie Fforde: Herzenssache" to find the movie trailer online (it is in German). The property was used extensively, as well as surrounding landmarks such as the Fish Shack and along the rocky coast. Also, you can find our webcam by searching "On the Cove" to check out what's going on and the current weather. Also, the property was part of the 2018 Gloucester Garden Tour.
When you stay, you will enjoy the intimacy of the cove as well as the views of Crane Beach and Plum Island across Ipswich Bay. This area is famous for phenomenal sunsets (National Geographic has called it one of the ten best in the world). Lanes Cove is a favorite spot for artists and kayakers alike.
Lanesville is one of the quaint villages encircling Cape Ann and is conveniently located about 10 minutes from either downtown Gloucester or Rockport. You can swim in the cove or take a short walk to Plum Cove beach. Halibut Point State Park and Dogtown Common are only a mile away. Lanesville was the home of many famous authors, painters and sculptors including Virginia Lee Burton, Walker Hancock, Leon Kroll and Paul Manship. It is also the home of the Manship Artist Residency and Studio--a 15 acre estate with two quarries.
Gloucester itself is only an hour by train or car from Boston and is one of New England's best-kept summer vacation secrets. From earliest settlers in 1623 to today's Hollywood film-makers, the beauty of Cape Ann has drawn people from around the world. Made famous in the movie "The Perfect Storm" and now "Wicked Tuna", Gloucester has a rich maritime history and is the oldest working seaport and active artist colony in the United States. Gloucester's historic fishing port, Rockport's famous art galleries, the unique antique shops of Essex, the New England charm of Manchester-by-the-Sea, and the history and museums of nearby Salem make Cape Ann a truly unique vacation destination.
Located in Gloucester, this apartment is on the waterfront. The area's natural beauty can be seen at Cape Ann and Good Harbor Beach. Maritime Gloucester and Schooner Adventure are also worth visiting. Take an opportunity to explore the area for water adventures such as fishing.
