About this property

Luxury Accommodations in Quiet Seaside Village

The Loft at Lane's Cove is a top floor, front to back unit with separate Queen bedroom and bath. Exposed high wood ceilings, skylight and wall of sliding glass doors keeps this unit bright and open while imparting a truly relaxing feeling. All walls are freshly painted in muted coastal colors and most of the furnishings are new 2013. The Loft has a European-style air conditioning wall unit, a ceiling fan in the bedroom and one in the living room. Recent 2022 renovations include a new bathroom, new deck and deck furniture and new Nectar Queen mattress!!

Newly refinished beautiful hardwood floors throughout with tile in the kitchen and eating area. Enjoy dinner for two with views of the cove or relax with cocktails on the private balcony while watching the boats come back after a day of fishing on the bay.

A full kitchen offers a complete array of Calphalon pots, pans, casserole dishes, pasta/lobster pots and cooking utensils. With plenty of storage for food, the kitchen also includes a dishwasher, oven/cooktop, microwave, coffee maker, toaster, mini food processor and Brita water pitcher.

Tastefully decorated with coastal furniture, Pottery Barn linens and Claire Murray rugs. Flat screen TV (wall hung), DVD player, high speed internet, landline and stereo also included.

Apartment comes with a great supply of sundries, including paper towels, TP, garbage bags, aluminum foil, saran wrap, baggies, coffee filters, EVOU, vinegar, S&P, etc. and other necessary items. Ask us for a complete list!

Unit has two private entrances on side of building through privacy gate. Inside entrance has wood landing and carpeted stairs. Outside back staircase leads down to first floor owner's deck as a second egress. Beach chairs, beach umbrella and cooler are also available for your use.

The Loft at Lane's Cove is located on the top floor of what was once the old Lanesville 'Engine House', in the heart of the Village. The first floor of the building has been a restaurant, antique store and a private residence. It is now the owner's private office space, used only during the week. The top floor unit remains quiet and private.

Step out your door into the morning sunshine and grab a cup of coffee, pastry(or lunch) and newspaper at Cove Cafe three doors down. The post office, Prana Salon and the Lanesville Package Store, which offers a great selection of wine,
beer and other food items, like gourmet marinated steak tips, round out the rest of Washington Street.

Ample street parking, usually right in front, makes access to unit easy. The CATA bus stops in front of the post office making travel around Cape Ann easy and effortless.

The Loft at Lane's Cove is your destination for a fun-filled romantic getaway…easy living on the Cove.

Exactly what we were hoping for on a one week vacation escape.
We wish to thank Diane for providing my wife and I with the lovely, quaint accommodations for one week. It was exactly what we were hoping to find when we arrived in mid Jun 2016. The one bedroom unit was very clean and included every feature you could wish for in a rental unit. The kitchen was well stocked, the bedroom very comfortable and the view from the second floor deck was perfect when my wife and I shared morning coffee. We just hope it's available on a future visit.

Our stay at The Loft
We just spent three weeks in Gloucester, staying at the Loft. The apartment was beautifully decorated, comfortable, and clean. Diane was very accommodating and accessible. We were a little disappointed that the Loft was located so far from the Harbor area but the description was not misleading. We enjoyed walking to Plum Cove Beach with our family.

About the host

Hosted by Diane Pappas

Host profile image
My brother Robbie and I (Diane) purchased 1072 Washington Street in May 2013, because we wanted to own a piece of beautiful Lanesville. I moved here not too long before from Sudbury, MA and knew that my brother would love this area too. I was really trying to get him to move up here from Long Island, and when that didn't work, I suggested we buy a piece of property together (just to give him yet another reason to come visit me). I live up the street in Lanesville with my husband, Paul, and my two girls. Paul and I take care of the property and make sure that our guests are well taken care of.

We can't say enough about Lanesville. We love it here and even though it seems like we are at the end of the world, there is no place we would rather be…especially in the summer.

There is so much to do around here that we are never bored, and neither are the kids - and that says a lot! The best thing about Lanesville is that you can spend the whole day within walking distance of your home and at the end of the day, feel like you were on an amazing adventure.

We especially love enjoying a bottle of wine while watching the sun set at Plum Cove Beach. Many nights we will walk down to the cove too, along with many of our neighbors, just to sit on the rocks, watch the waves and boats pass by and reflect on the awesomeness of the area. We feel so lucky to be a part of this town.

Why they chose this property

Buying this property was really just a whim of mine, but once I saw the inside and the views from both floors, I knew it would be an amazing property to own.

I called my brother right after the showing and told him I wanted to make an offer, like right now. He said ok. Mind you, he is my older brother, I'm just the little sister that always followed him around, but some reason he had faith in me and trusted my judgement.

There was already another offer on the table, but I wrote a little personal story along with the offer and that sealed the deal. We were proud owners of the little red fire house. I now had a place for my office in the back of the first floor and my dream of owning a rental property had come true. I have a future dream of opening up a small retail store in the front, but first things first.

Come stay with us every year and be a part of the dream.

What makes this property unique

The best thing about staying at The Loft at Lane's Cove is the feeling of community. Our neighbors are amazing and everyone is friendly and down to earth. The convenience to everything on Cape Ann makes this a wonderful location for your vacation. Be prepared to fall in love with Lanesville, and with The Loft!

As one of the signs say upon entering Lanesville… 'Caution - Beautiful Dreams Ahead'.
