Get ready for whimsical opulence. Dramatic views accompany this colorful, coastal, Italian-style estate which includes a life-sized chess set, indoor grotto and pool, outdoor pool, and a stone teahouse from the 1920s nestled right on the cliffs overlooking the Atlantic Ocean. It truly will take your breath away, inside and out.
Boston Magazine describes this magnificent estate as “Mediterranean coast meets a historic Italian church.”
Listed with Lance Robb of Landvest Real Estate and Christies International , 16 Boardman Avenue in Manchester By the Sea, Massachusetts, on Boston’s North Shore, is a 16,000-square-foot, 27-room estate with a separate living quarters above the teahouse on the water’s edge, totaling eight bedrooms and seven bathrooms.
After you view the photo gallery below, I’m sure you’ll agree with the listing when it describes this as a one-of-a-kind seaside treasure. It sits on nearly four-and-a-half acres and has plenty of manicured lawns, English gardens, an outdoor pool, rooftop terrace, and a stunning stone pond complete with lily pads. There are also plenty of outdoor patios to enjoy the seaside views.
