    Luxury differs: some crave ocean views, others historic charm. The Gloucester property offers dramatic waves, ample space for entertaining, and timeless elegance. The Concord home, built in 1846, sits on 2.45 acres by the river, blending antique details with solar panels, geothermal heating, and modern finishes. It sold at a higher price point and took longer to close, showing buyers at this level need more time.
