About This Home
As of October 2023Imagine living on your own saltwater beach with west-facing views to take in all the sunsets! If you enjoy nature, kayaking or playing on the beach...this is your next home and as a bonus, there is a 1-bedroom apartment on the lower level which can be a short-term rental or a caregiver's residence. The possibilities are endless. The main floor has been updated and has 4 bedrooms plus the primary suite with a very open floor plan for the living/dining/kitchen. There's a covered outdoor kitchen and 2 other outbuildings, as well. The home is situated along a dead end road that the residents have purchased the land across the street to preserve privacy, and there's a heron rookery down the street and this area has no train along the waterfront!
