About this home
NEW PRICE! Nestled in a serene natural setting, this 1950s charmer offers 1,477 sq ft of single-level living w/ partial water and island views — plus something truly rare: your own private forest. The included second parcel (7,400 sq ft) extends behind the home into a peaceful woodland sanctuary where deer, squirrels, rabbits, and owls make regular appearances. It’s an ideal buffer for privacy, a dream setting for nature lovers, and a canvas for future potential — from a shop to a garden expansion to long-term value. The remodeled interior blends comfort with modern updates. The kitchen features quartz counters, soft-close shaker cabinetry, a 5-burner gas range, stainless appliances, & pantry storage. Luxury vinyl plank flooring runs throughout the home. A spacious laundry/mud room offers views of the surrounding greenery. The full bath includes quartz counters, tile flooring, & a tile tub surround. The living room retains its mid-century charm w/ wood lap ceilings, a fireplace, and a wall of windows that frame the treetops and fill the space with natural light. Exterior improvements include a newer roof (2020), fresh exterior paint, and a stone-terraced wall. The deep 1-car garage provides attic storage & a workbench. Outside, enjoy your mini apple orchard plus a large storage shed. Located close to town & ferries, this property offers both convenience & nature. Plumbing in the main bedroom allows for an easy future addition of a half bath. Buyer to verify all information.
