This unique property is heaven-sent for the serious boater or the gardener in you. The main house is sited on nearly 1.5+/- acres and offers inspiring water views each level, four bedrooms and two and one-half baths. The entry foyer offers an abundance of natural light and sitting area. Adjacent is a beautiful living room with built-ins, fireplace and views of the harbor.

There are two first-floor bedroom suites with a Jack-and-Jill full bath with doors to rear deck overlooking a deer-free garden. The second floor has two additional bedrooms and one full bath. The property extends from street to street and there is a grove of Macoun, Red Delicious and Macintosh apple trees adjacent to the cutting flower and hosta garden. The rear access leads to a charming cottage with two bedrooms, two full baths, wood-burning fireplace and streaming sunlight through skylights, plus a hidden rose garden adjacent to a vegetable garden. An incredible boat barn has a three-ton hoist, concrete slab floors, workbench shop, washer-dryer and commode with a door leading to a one-car garage. There are two generators, one each for the main house and the cottage. Also available with a separate .25+/- acre waterfront lot which has dramatic views, dock with power and water, low mean tide depth of 5 +/- feet from the end and recently upgraded state-of-the-art PVC bulkhead on a sandy beach. The waterfront is grassy with a trellis entry, shrubs dotted along the border, and mature trees, suitable for a gazebo or your own “tiny house”. Shell Beach is but a stone’s throw away.
