Description

Revel in the slow beauty of seaside life and still feel secure knowing you’re a short distance to all that’s necessary. 2008 marked the completion of a transformation from ordinary to remarkable for this traditional Nantucket-style cottage. From the ultimate in function (built to hurricane code, 2x6 joists in upper stories, complete repointing of foundation, updated systems) to the most thoughtful form (transom windows, cathedral entry, pocket doors), this property stands alone for its quality craftsmanship...Revel in the slow beauty of seaside life and still feel secure knowing you’re a short distance to all that’s necessary. 2008 marked the completion of a transformation from ordinary to remarkable for this traditional Nantucket-style cottage. From the ultimate in function (built to hurricane code, 2x6 joists in upper stories, complete repointing of foundation, updated systems) to the most thoughtful form (transom windows, cathedral entry, pocket doors), this property stands alone for its quality craftsmanship and attention to details.  The floorplan offers rooms to suit all types of requirements. 3 big beds, including one on the main level and a full bath on the 1st & 2nd floors. Guests will love the open kitchen and dining room that leads to a deck for outdoor entertainment. The top floor is a surprising space—perfect family room or work studio. The lower level is the coziest spot —home to "The Snuggery," abeckons you to settle in and relax; as well as a workspace ideal for any hobbyist.
