Set on approximately 32 acres on scenic Argilla Road, this single-story ranch-style home is approached by a long, winding driveway bordered by open fields and paddocks gradually rising to the crest of a coastal drumlin at almost 98 feet. The house offers exceptional northwesterly views across the expansive marsh and the Labor-in-Vain Creek. Originally built as a summer cottage, the home was winterized and renovated in 1961, followed by an extensive renovation in 2009-2010. The house offers four bedrooms, three full baths, and one-half bath, a detached two-car garage, a tennis court, and a storage shed. A conservation restriction held by Essex County Greenbelt protects all but approximately three acres of the property, preserving the open landscape while allowing for agricultural and equestrian activities and improvements. Located just moments from Crane Beach in one of the North Shore’s most spectacular coastal settings. Please do not drive by.

Boston’s North Shore is a picturesque tapestry where history meets the sea, and each town has a story to tell. The convenient hamlets north of the city have long commanded premium values, from the most spectacular waterfront properties in Manchester-by-the-Sea, Beverly, Gloucester, and Rockport to classic saltwater farms in Essex and riverfront properties in Ipswich. Off the water, proximate to the venerable Myopia Hunt Club, North Shore farms and equestrian properties in Hamilton, Wenham, Ipswich, and Topsfield are well paired with LandVest’s conservation planning and marketing expertise. Our Ipswich office is perched at the top of the hill overlooking nearby shops, restaurants, and galleries found in town, all just a short stroll to the Ipswich River.
