Set in a lively harborside location, this sun-filled, south-facing home--built c. 1925--is designed to make the most of its coastal setting, with many rooms oriented to capture ocean views. Original details like wood floors, covered porch, and a classic staircase blend seamlessly with tasteful modern updates. The bright, open kitchen and dining area is the heart of the home, featuring a cozy built-in window seat, heater, and sliding glass doors that open to the backyard and wharf for easy indoor-outdoor living. The first floor also includes a living room, updated full bath, laundry room, walk-in pantry, and a heated flex space facing Main Street--ideal for a home business or studio.
Upstairs are 4 bedrooms including the primary bedroom which opens to a private veranda overlooking the ocean.
Outside, the property is all about fun by the water. A spacious dock invites entertaining, dining, and lounging as lobster boats and outboards pass by. The backyard offers surprising privacy, with a small lawn, thoughtfully placed perennials, and beautiful ocean views. A well-maintained, classic Fish Shack adds charm and versatility--perfect as an artist's studio, kids' playhouse, or a one-of-a-kind office with a view. An updated heating system ensures year-round comfort, bringing ease and practicality to this inviting coastal retreat.
