An estate set 150 feet above sea level on nearly 13 acres in one of Manchester-by-the-Sea’s most coveted locations, 370 Summer Street was recently listed for $6.9 million. Reached by a long private drive, the property commands sweeping views of Kettle Cove and Crow Island.
Designed by Marcus Gleysteen of MGA with interiors by Lena Fransioli of Zoe Design, the home blends organic modern architecture with timeless craftsmanship. Stone, wood, and metal leaf finishes include a striking copper leaf wall, live-edge maple stairs, bubinga paneling, and a stainless steel freestanding fireplace beneath arched ceilings soaring to 23 feet.
The ultramodern 4,925 sq.ft. house has 5 bedrooms and 4.5 bathrooms, and was built in 2004. The house has cantilevered “floating” stairs and landing with a glass, cable, and mahogany rail system. The kitchen has a red birch floor, Caesarstone countertops, a live edge big leaf maple kitchen island, a bespoke nautilus shaped pantry, and Subzero, Wolf, and Bosch appliances.
The exterior features include a spa tub, bluestone patio, and a central deck with sunlight and moonlight ocean views. The all glass garage holds two cars. The home’s restorative landscaping requires a minimal, low water consumption approach.
Abutting Hooper Trask Conservation Pasture, the estate enjoys access to 2,000+ acres of protected land, trails, beaches, the harbor, and the village center. Three beaches – Black, White, and Kettle Cove are all in walking distance.
