Marblehead MA: A Charming Colonial Seaside Community
The autumnal colors have begun to peek out along the North Shore of Boston. The next month or so will bring us some glorious hues of oranges, reds and yellows. While the clouds were gathering overhead for a late summer storm, last Tuesday, it was still quite nice for a quick stroll around Marblehead, Massachusetts. This town is the perfect example of a Colonial era seaside settlement in New England. In fact, many of the original buildings still exist today.
I made a quick stop inside a couple of the shops in Marblehead. The first one was filled with beautiful home goods. C'est la Vie -- the name certainly pays homage to store's French country and seaside styles, with a combination of sophistication and whimsy; both rustic and metropolitan. It all reminded me of a recent feature in Northshore Magazine on a home that was converted from an old Swampscott firehouse. The elegantly dressed proprietor, Cassandra Hughes, greeted me with enthusiasm. It quickly became apparent to me that this boutique is an expression of the passion that Cassandra has for style and the treasures she displays.
Coming around the corner, I wandered inside Mud Puddle Toys, where the kid in me quietly coveted a small wooden sailboat kit, as well as many of the various and sundry colorful samples on display. Then I peeked inside the windows of Arnould Gallery and Framery, which is filled with romantic paintings of boats on the ocean. With Lady's Cove only a few blocks away, maritime artwork is a must. Also within a block was the Old Town House and several small shops.
It is very easy to see why so many of our clients are moving into and around Marblehead. Click here to see all available Marblehead real estate or contact us to schedule a private one-on-one consultation.
