The main house features quality Yankee timberframe craftsmanship, skylighted cathedral ceilings, warm wood finishes, hand-pegged pine floors and custom built-ins. Walls of glass provide beautiful vistas of the bay. Wake-up to the most stunning sunrises across the water from the comfort of your first floor master suite.

Owned solar panels installed in 2017. Electric bills are $13/month! Stand-by generator minimizes potential power outage concerns. Beautiful gardens and mature plantings attract a wide variety of birds throughout the seasons. The 7+ acre parcel is predominantly wooded with variety of both hard- and softwoods. Additional clearing could be done if you are looking for more open area, enlarged lawn spaces or broader water views. 530-feet of shorefront along a protected cove is a perfect spot for young ones learning to swim or wanting to explore the water's edge. The private tidal dock provides great opportunities for enjoying a variety of recreational watersports. Great location for walking and cycling scenic country roads and nearby trails. Priced to reflect age-related conditions.
