Singular and special is the property at 86 Island Road. A charming 2-story cottage, the property went through a renovation in the 90's and features hardwood flooring throughout, teak trim around doors and windows and a vaulted living room with fireplace that opens to the dining area and kitchen. Sliders connect the room to a screened porch that overlooks the expansive, private garden. To the front, a hallway to a den/office, full bath with laundry and a bedroom with walk in closet. Upstairs there are 2 additional bedrooms and a full bath. The expansive grounds contain lots of interesting trees, including two champion pear trees, a redbud, and an acre of secluded gardens. A free-standing studio with heat can be used for a variety of purposes. Owned solar panels. At the end of the street is the oxbow marina and soccer fields. House needs some freshening to make it sparkle again. Open House Sunday 1-3pm but can be shown before that.
