About this home

Meticulously restored Peabody & Stearns estate in Manchester-by-the-Sea, this Gold Coast jewel captures views of the marsh & is within walking distance of Black & White Beaches. Set on 2.8± acres of rolling lawns framed by mature trees and stone walls, the residence blends timeless craftsmanship with modern comfort. A complete top-to-bottom renovation preserves its architectural integrity while elevating it for contemporary living. With generous square footage the home offers nine bedrooms, five-and-two-half baths, an inviting first-floor bedroom suite, and a well-appointed in-law apartment. A gourmet kitchen with soapstone counters, and Thermador suite flows to dining for 18 and a screened porch. Modern systems include 5-zone HVAC, Navien hydro-air, and 400-amp service. Perennial gardens, gracious porches, granite patio with in-ground hot tub, vegetable garden, and original stone potting shed add historic charm.
