Goldthwait Open Houses: New construction or beach front?
Three Open Houses today, in the much sought after Goldthwait area of Marblehead. Choose from new construction on the corner of Atlantic Avenue or a Marblehead Beach House , directly on Goldthwait Beach, with stunning views from Marblehead Harbor to Plymouth.

Finally, a private island for sale
From time to time I have commented that while the Sotheby’s International Realty website lists a variety of categories of properties for sale, I have been disappointed that there have not been any private islands (or haciendas for that matter) for sale here on the North Shore.

Jimmy Garoppolo 3 Open House 1
Last Sunday saw the Patriots’ home opener and the question on the minds of real estate agents was what impact the 1 pm kick off game would have on attendance at Open Houses.
