About This Home

As of May 2024

This charming, 3-bedroom, 2-bath in-town home is located in the seaside neighborhood of Cottage St., has partial views of the outer harbor and is just steps from public ocean access. A gardener's delight with a 10 x 12 greenhouse built in 2022, lovely native perennial plantings and multiple raised garden beds, this Victorian cottage-style home has been completely and thoughtfully renovated and is in absolute turnkey condition. Updates and amenities include a first-floor living option with ample room on the second level for guests, a handsome new kitchen with endless counter space, a gas range and beautiful wood floors, a large open-concept dining and living area that leads to a water-view deck and features floor-to-ceiling windows and a Jotul gas stove for heat and ambiance, a bright and sunny first-floor bedroom, a new full bathroom and laundry also on the first floor, an office or den with built in bookshelves, heat pumps on both floors for heating and A/C, a new furnace in 2022 and a walkout basement with an oversized 1-car garage and plenty of room for storage. Within walking distance of downtown shops and eateries, the Farmer's Market, library and Harbor Walk, this is a special offering in one of Belfast's favorite neighborhoods.
