About this home

Welcome to ?The Tea house on the Neck?, originally 4 lots with two residences, and owned by the same family including the head of the Lipton Tea Company from 1880-1990. A spectacular property with the perfect smaller tea house at the tip of the point from which to enjoy a morning (or evening) drink. The lots were subdivided in 1991, and 405 Ocean Avenue now sits perched on a double lot totaling 1.82 acres, surrounded by trees shaped by the sun and wind, rocky ledges (?the lower woods?), mature plantings, an easement to a small beach, and potential for further subdivision. Also, stunning 360 degree views of the Atlantic Ocean, Marblehead Rock, Children?s Island, and Castle Rock Park, as well as Marblehead Harbor and The Marblehead Lighthouse! The interior of the home is spacious with 5+ bedrooms, 6 bathrooms and 6518 SF of living space. Period details throughout the house are obvious, but the current owners have also made it a priority to bring the house up to modern day standards.
