This circa Eighteen Seventy 5132 square foot Mansard Style Victorian is offered outside the family for the very first time. The home together with eight other turn-of-the-century cottages form a necklace surrounding a common pastoral Green. This architectural gem is in need of a total restoration worthy of the effort and expense required. Straw's Point is a private community governed with its own road association, protective covenants and architectural restrictions affording ocean front tranquility and privacy available to only a fortunate few. A sandy Atlantic Ocean swimming beach is nearby and it is a short distance to Rye Harbor and legendary Abenaqui Count
