From the Zillow listing:

 

Commanding an ideal anchorage on Gloucester’s coveted Eastern Point, ‘Stoneacre’ sits at tide’s edge and floats above the water like a yacht in the harbor, the waves seemingly at arm’s reach from every room, a cruise or sail just a moment away at the end of a deep-water dock with double moorings. Constructed of hand-cut granite block and set deep in granite ledge, the home is aptly named and built for the ages. An iconic presence for over a century, Stoneacre today offers a seaside estate without peer. Drive through the hand-carved wooden gates and enter a world where all is ‘luxury, peace and pleasure.’ The home’s lavish scale’9+ bedrooms, 6 full baths, 4 half baths, 8 fireplaces, 10,000 sf of living space (plus 6,000+ sf of partially finished space on the 3rd floor)’is balanced by interior spaces of understated elegance and ease. With its immaculate grounds and fortress-like construction, Stoneacre offers the ultimate refuge and family compound at a time when it is needed most. 2020-09-30
