Overview

Description

Twin Gables was given its name a century ago when two existing homes were rebuilt into a single imposing structure that overlooks the fairways of the Megunticook Club and the church steeples of Rockport. As the back of the house nestles against the woods that cover the center of the Beauchamp peninsula, Twin Gables' privacy, quiet neighborhood and almost pastoral feel belie the fact that it's only a five minute stroll to the center of historic Rockport's harbor, summer concerts, restaurants, and new library. With 5 bedrooms, 4 1/2 baths, living room, library, conservatory, and a dining room that can seat 14, Twin Gables' architectural elements echo an age of elegance, while its systems and structure have been fully modernized during a two year renovation that has created a distinguished, Historically Registered, home of great character with every modern convenience, including central air conditioning.
