Property Description
Welcome home to Lanesville! This adorable home was once the parsonage for a neighboring church that served the quarrying community in Lanesville. Historically, granite was locally quarried and delivered to waiting barges at the end of Norseman Avenue for shipment to Gloucester, Boston and beyond. This home has been lovingly maintained by the current owners. Upon arrival at 5 Norseman Avenue, you are welcomed by a gracious wrap-around covered porch. There are peeks of Ipswich Bay with the sounds and smells of the ocean ever present. The first floor has an inviting open floor plan, with a well equipped kitchen, dining room and living room. Upstairs, three good-sized bedrooms await. One bedroom has a nook for home office/study and one has vaulted ceilings with sleeping loft. The compact grounds have a large bluestone patio, bluestone walkway, granite curbing and lovely native plantings.
