This beyond adorable cottage has been in the family for well over 34 years and does it shows true pride of ownership. Listen to coastal birds in the morning and then see the skyline light up with colorful sunsets over the Basin Cove in the evening. This quintessential cottage sits right at the water's edge where you can see nature at your door on the wrap around deck, that could no longer be built with today standards. This double lot has all you will need in a seasonal cottage, a nice living room area, surrounded floor to ceiling glass doors to the water edge. The perfect cottage kitchen, a full bath, and original wide hardwood floors throughout, that been recently re-finished. The sleep loft has one of the best views out the window to the cove, where you could easily sleep 3-4 people. But Let's talk more about the great outside where you will be most of the time, the garage that is over the bay could be so many possibilities; bunk house perhaps? There is also a dock to the protected bay where you could easily store your kayaks, paddle boards, or even a smaller boat. If this wasn't enough for you, you have the protected Curtis Preserve 86 acres at your back door, where this will always be a walking paths and most days a very private and yet so very quiet beach, hardly anyone seems to use or know about. The best part the owners have said it all when they named this sweet little cottage many years ago ''our piece of heaven.''
