Public Remarks
Tanglewood Retreat! Private, very clean, low maintenance, three season cottage a short walk (<1/4 Mile) from the town beach. Close to Tanglewood. 180 SF deck. Family room is recently rebuilt. Replacement windows with insulated glass and electric heat throughout. Town sewer, so property could be winterized with a private well, to replace the seasonal communal well.
