Overlooking beautiful Card Cove with long views out to Quahog Bay, you will instantly be smitten with this immaculate and adorable two bedroom home. Easterly sun fills the open concept first floor through a wall of over-sized windows. The kitchen includes new butcher block counters and a tiled back slash. Generous dining area, and a beautiful gas fireplace in the living room, all with access to a large back deck overlooking the water. On the second floor, the ceilings are vaulted giving it a generous sense of space. Watch the sunrise from the beautiful master en suite. Designated laundry area conveniently located upstairs. And we cannot say enough about the gardens! Mature and well thought out flowering gardens cover this waterfront lot; absolutely stunning in full bloom. Out building to house kayaks and all your water rec equipment. Use as a vacation rental, your own special summer home on the coast, or live here year round. Convenient to Brunswick and the Islands. Must see!
