Property Description

Discover "Twelve Lanterns," a Mediterranean villa steeped in history, perched high on rock ledge overlooking the Atlantic Ocean, a secret gem on Marblehead Neck. Designed & commissioned by Isabella Stewart Gardner in 1911, this home is a true testament to her love for Italy, Spain, & the Mediterranean w/ exquisite details like decorative tiles, arched doorways, vaulted ceilings, & a soaring tower w/ 12 windows offering panoramic views. Stroll through wooden gates, mature gardens & up stone steps, to this 4-bedroom residence w/ a primary suite on the main level. The kitchen, primary bath & windows were updated in 2003 while preserving the home's historical charm. In 2009 an additional jewel was added, a separate artist studio, complete w/ heat, electricity & 1/2 bath-perfect for creative work or large projects, w/ doors large enough for a car or boat. Other features include: a generator, outdoor pizza oven, deeded beach path & a detached 2-car garage. Timeless Charm & Modern Convenience
