About This Home

As of August 2020

If you are seeking a hidden gem that is tucked away but still less than 4 miles from the center of town and less than 2 minutes from the town beach, look no further! As soon as you turn into the crushed stone driveway, you instantly feel a sense of calm as you are surrounded by lush and mature greenery. This absolutely adorable and meticulous ranch style home offers one floor living, plenty of privacy, and serene marsh views! Lovely hardwood floors flow from one end of the house to the other as plenty of natural light illuminates the interior. The kitchen, which is very spacious with plenty of counter space and an island, opens to the dining area with a bay window. The living room has a wood burning fireplace and sliding doors with views of the Black Hall River. There is a large two-tiered deck off of the living room making for a perfect space to entertain and to enjoy the serenity of the yard. There is also a second deck off of the kitchen and dining room--ideal for grilling and cook-outs! Both bedrooms have hardwood floors under the current carpet, and the full basement with hatchway offers plenty of storage space. The one car garage is currently used as a workspace and offers a ton of room for kayaks, lawn storage, etc. A charming wooden bridge leads you to the additional 4.8 acres of land where at high tide you can launch your own kayak and paddle down the Black Hall River! Located just minutes from I-95, Route 9, train stations, and only 2 hours from NYC and Boston!
