Optimally sited on the high point of Heartbreak Hill – some 170 feet above sea level – this 44.75+ acre coastal estate offers what is arguably the preeminent seascape panorama in Essex County. Views feature the meandering thread of the Labor-In-Vain Creek, the Ipswich River Basin, marshland, Castle Hill, the open Atlantic, Plum Island, and on a clear day, to Mount Agementicus in Maine. The house was custom-built by the current owners on the prime wooded site some 38 years ago. The kitchen is the center of circulation, with generous rooms, high ceilings and picture windows that capture the stunning views. The house offers an indoor spa with a lap pool and sauna, a home office, attached in-law apartment, two-car heated garage, workshop and equipment garage. Just 2.8+ miles from Crane Beach, the property offers the rare combination of accessibility, privacy and view. The property includes deeded access to the navigable waterway with the opportunity to construct a boat landing/float
