The coolest thing about today's property in Marblehead, Massachusetts might not be the house itself but the zen-inspiring tea house perched on the rocky shoreline. The 1.8 acre property has access to a private beach and the main house is on a hilltop with clear ocean views. Well-suited to the picturesque environs, the home is a 1880s renovated Victorian with over 6,000 square feet of living area. The five-bedroom home has been remodeled and has a newer kitchen but rooms like the wood paneled library, ocean-facing living room and the dining room with window seat speak to the home's original charms. The property includes a lower terrace built into the rocks above the Atlantic. This home is listed for $5.9 million.

I don't see much NOT to like about this property! Private beach, gorgeous kitchen... Still, my favorite is the little tea-house. Wonderfully charming!

Take a look at it on Bing map's birds-eye view (Barker Lane, Marblehead, MA 01945) Beautiful piece of property with nice natural landscaping. Only drawback is that it looks like it shares a driveway with the neighbor. Otherwise, perfect!
