Located where the St. George River becomes Muscongus Bay, you will never tire of sensational sunsets. Your view west to the Cushing horizon a mile over the water spans 45 degrees from left to right uninterrupted except for the large variety of boats that travel through the area. The deck sits just thirty feet from high tide and the home is solidly planted on bedrock protecting it from sea erosion. One floor living including the primary bedroom as well as a second bedroom and a full bath with laundry. Great living room with a wood burning fireplace and easy access to the deck out front. There is also a wonderful screened porch accessed off of the kitchen and dining rooms. You own a part of the beach that fills your view a distance of 750 feet from your living room and deck. The slope of the sand and stone beach allows the lowest tide level to be reached on foot to launch a kayak at any time of day or night, or use a dingy to reach a moored boat at any tide. The beach has an area when the tide is out kept damp with fresh water springs. You will own in a very historical area. As far back as colonial times, the springs here were favorite places for ships to fill their potable water tanks as they headed out to sea. You would be only the third owner of the property. The original builder enjoyed it for 25 years and the current owners also for 25 years. Not exactly a property one lets go of easily. Expansion opportunities still exist, and this home conveys fully furnished.
