One of the North Shore’s most significant Queen Anne residences, 51 Cliff Street—also known as the George Duncan House—is a stunning Gilded Age estate with ocean views in two directions. Rebuilt in 1898 by British aristocrat Lord Duncan, the last Earl of Camperdown, the nearly two-acre grounds were designed by Frederick Law Olmsted and feature a pergola, red brick balustrades, and terracotta urns. The grand entry hall leads to soaring ceilings, 11 fireplaces, exquisite period details, oversized living spaces, and multiple en-suites. Two separate apartments offer flexibility for guests. The longtime residence of the renowned artist Norman Laliberté, whose works grace the Smithsonian, this coastal retreat includes shared ownership of Nahant’s most beautiful private beach. A rare blend of history, artistry, and seaside elegance.
