About This Home

As of June 2016

The VIEW SAYS IT ALL, a 4 minute walk to the beach. This 3 bedroom cottage is a great investment, vacation spot, weekend rental, a rare combination. The cottage hearkens back to another time, knotty pine wood walls, a newer wood burning heater and original wooden kitchen cabinets from the 50's. A large deck from the cottage to enjoy the afternoon sun, overlooking Birch Bay. All furniture to be sold with cottage. Don't miss this opportunity, buy it now and build your home later.
