Pre-listing home inspection available for review request a copy. A great opportunity with flexible terms for qualified buyers! Welcome to the historic Browning Residence at 259 Green Hill Beach Road. Built in 1700, this unique home once served as the center of a 250-acre working ranch where the Browning family raised cattle and sheep into the 1940s.

This home has been carefully preserved and thoughtfully updated. Recent upgrades include a brand-new 50-year roof, new gutters, and a 200-amp electrical panel. The renovated kitchen offers quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a clean coastal design. Four new energy-efficient mini-split systems provide year-round comfort, while a heated floor in the upstairs bath adds a luxurious touch. The home is supported by a six-bedroom septic system, offering flexibility and expansion potential. Located in the sought-after Green Hill Beach community, the property is just minutes from the shore and close to all South County amenities. Whether you're seeking a year-round residence, summer getaway, or investment opportunity, this move-in ready home offers the perfect blend of historic charm and modern convenience.
