*Diamond in the Rough* An unprecedented opportunity awaits at 87 Wharf Road, a property hitting the market for the first time since it was built in 1960. Owned by the same family for over six decades, this Cousins Island residence is a true ''diamond in the rough'' with significant potential for the right buyer. The home was originally designed as a single residence, with a custom-built kitchen featuring a counter specifically for kneading bread while overlooking the backyard. As the family grew, so did the property, with an additional garage bay and a separate apartment added to accommodate extended family. This expansion highlights the home's functional, evolving nature. Sold strictly ''as is,'' this property is ready for a comprehensive update. A buyer with vision will see beyond the current state and recognize the value of the 1.84-acre lot and the home's solid foundation. Recent capital improvements include a new roof and cedar shake siding installed between 2010 and 2012, a new well pump in 2017, and an updated water filtration system in 2023-2024. The electrical system was upgraded in 2000, and the septic system was recently pumped in 2025. This is a rare chance to acquire a piece of Yarmouth's coastal landscape and undertake a rewarding renovation project.
