This modern masterpiece—designed by the renowned Boston firm Schwartz/­Silver Architects—sits on a rocky Swampscott promontory known as Little’s Point, with nothing but crashing waves below and distant views of the city’s skyline beyond. Featured on the cover of Boston Home magazine in 2013, the house has a unique layout ­designed to welcome natural light into each room. And it was clearly built for an art collector: A glorious triple-height, sky-lit corridor visually links the first and second floors while creating a gallerylike setting for large sculptures. That being said, the four en suite bedrooms on the first floor ensure family-friendly living, while above, adults can contemplate the ocean from the master suite or sunny great room, both of which open to elegant decks.
