One of the North Shore’s most significant Queen Anne residences, 51 Cliff Street—also known as the George Duncan House—is a stunning Gilded Age estate with ocean views in two directions. Rebuilt in 1898 by British aristocrat Lord Duncan, the last Earl of Camperdown, the nearly two-acre grounds were designed by Frederick Law Olmsted and feature a pergola, red brick balustrades, and terracotta urns. The grand entry hall leads to soaring ceilings, 11 fireplaces, exquisite period details, oversized living spaces, and multiple en-suites. Two separate apartments offer flexibility for guests. The longtime residence of the renowned artist Norman Laliberté, whose works grace the Smithsonian, this coastal retreat includes shared ownership of Nahant’s most beautiful private beach. A rare blend of history, artistry, and seaside elegance.

This exquisite 3-bedroom home boasts sweeping ocean vistas, and breathtaking sunsets to end each day. Extensively renovated, one enters into an open floor plan with light pouring in from a wall of sliders, revealing the vast ocean stretching to the horizon. The expansive living room w/gas fireplace leads to a deck designed for al fresco dining and stairs to the beach. For the cook, a new kitchen with quartz countertops, radiant floor heating and top notch appliances beckons. Upper decks off of the bedrooms allow sleeping to the sounds of the ocean and a lovely place to start the day. After a long day on the beach, soak in the oversized tub, the bath designed with exquisite inlay and a skylight above. New Navien furnace, 200 amp electrical, radiant heat flooring and a 20 yr roof are some of the upgrades offering a blend of modernity and comfort. With direct access to the beach and potential for a personal mooring, this property is an idyllic escape ensconced in the beauty of Nahant.
