With Steamboat Landing and the Belfast Boathouse just outside the door, the location offers a delightful blend of laid-back and lively, where you can listen to Thursday night music drifting from the Common and watch boats coming and going in the harbor. Thoughtfully renovated with efficiency upgrades, the house feels fresh and welcoming. A sweet bay window invites you to curl up with a book or simply gaze out at the water. The professional cottage-style landscaping softens the corner setting, and a quiet side deck creates a pocket of privacy. Out front, the covered porch is the ideal perch for people- and dog-watching. Move-in ready and beautifully maintained, this is an easy, walkable home in the heart of downtown Belfast.
