Tucked away on a quiet, secluded road with only three homes, this exceptional property is surrounded by water and bordered by 25 acres of protected, unbuildable land, ensuring lasting privacy and breathtaking natural beauty.

The 4-bedroom residence features 2 full baths and 2 half baths, with an open, airy design that captures stunning water views from virtually every window. The main level includes two bedrooms and showcases soaring cathedral ceilings, solid wood doors, and exceptional craftsmanship, while thoughtfully preserved elements from the original cottage add warmth, character, and a sense of nostalgia. The spacious kitchen is both elegant and functional, offering Silestone countertops, stainless steel appliances, white cabinetry, abundant counter space, a breakfast nook, and radiant heated flooring, with propane gas fueling both cooking and the home's heating system. The inviting family room centers around a striking fireplace and flows effortlessly onto a generous wraparound waterfront porch—perfect for relaxing or entertaining while taking in serene views. Built with quality and durability in mind, the home features a metal roof, Hardiplank exterior, and a warm, welcoming ambiance throughout. This is a true waterfront lifestyle property, where fishing, kayaking, boating, and crabbing are part of everyday life, and where comfort, craftsmanship, and natural beauty come together in perfect harmony.
