Life on the Water

 

Life on the Water

Painting by Gregory Gorham

 New England waters!! Walk the sandy beaches or canoe on the ponds. Teach the kids to fish!

NOW is the time to consider your next home on the water for Summer 2022! The past couple of years have been filled with change and many weeks of stress, concern and uncertainty. Let me show you where you can find your next home near the water. A new way to view life.

If we tarry a little while, we shall behold a sunset on the ocean, a sight worth traversing a kingdom to see. How finely the sands glow in the amber light, what a beautiful purple gleams on the crests of the tiny waves! The colours have changed as if by the moving of a fairy wand, a happy union of fire and its great antagonist. ~Henry James Slack

The Ocean Shores

Walk the beach any time your heart desires. Open the windows for the full effect of the ocean air, waves lapping the shore, songs of seagulls seeking their prey. If you are a beach lover there is nothing more refreshing than the aroma of the fresh salt air waking you the first thing in the morning with that cup of coffee sitting on your deck……not a soul in sight yet! 

The following are simply a few local examples of life on the salt and fresh waters in our area of Massachusetts. Many who are born here leave for life’s journey, yet a good many of us return to our roots. There’s just something about living near the water that gets in your blood!

Plymouth, MA 

Where it all began….1620 the Mayflower arrived and the Pilgrims established Plymouth. It’s been over 400 years and the beautiful vista remains of beaches and ocean for as far as you can see.

From small cottages to amazing large homes overlooking the water for miles.  There are 15 beaches which are individually beautiful. Hills that offer amazing views of the water if you choose not to live with your back door to the beach.

Plymouth is 45 minutes from Boston and a 30 minute drive to Cape Cod. Downtown has its’ own unique flair with history and numerous restaurants and cafes offering a variety of cuisine and many unique stores…not all gift shops, but many with great antiques. And, of course the town is full of amazing history.
