About This Home

As of September 2023

Location is everything. This property is nestled high above Long Cove with perfect waterfront views. The wrap around deck makes a wonderful spot to sit out by the water and enjoy your coffee in the morning. The property has over 3 thousand sqft of first floor living and a large bonus room with balcony and half bath. The property glows with natural sunlight throughout the day. In the evening time you can relax in your enclosed porch with a hot tub and sauna as you watch the sunset over Long Cove. The Geo Thermal heating and cooling system installed 12/12/18 is not only practical but as green as you get. Check out those pictures and VR tour. We are always her to help. Back on the market due to buyer unable to secure suitable financing.
