Hidden treasure on Standish Shore. This delightful cottage c1879, was built for Thomas & James Southworth. It was moved to its current location in 1917. There is something magical about the location which is tucked away and abuts conservation land. The current owners have kept the summer feel of the property while bringing the comfort aspects into the 21st century with a modern kitchen and efficient heating and cooling. The main house has a wonderful front porch as well as a screened porch which overlooks the tranquil gardens. Inside, there is lots of light while still having cozy living spaces. A separate structure, which is currently being used as an office, could easily be transformed into a guest area. You can enjoy a peek at the water from the yard as well as enjoying the beautiful sandy beach at the end of the lane.
