Adorable Gambrel style summer cottage sitting high on a spectacular west facing parcel of Pink Granite ledges with a gravel beach cove on the north side and another rocky cove on the south side. Deep water anchorage and western sunsets. The cottage is summer use only now but can be updated or build your dream home on the perch with over 1000' of frontage and gorgeous views with plenty of boat traffic going by in the outer bay. New septic system was updated in 2017!
