Meticulously maintained beach cottage located just 3/10 of a mile to Long Sands Beach. A true gem, this 1500+ square foot home with 2 bedrooms, an office plus den and 2 full baths is a rare find! Completely renovated in 2011, with an addition in 2020, this beautifully appointed and fully furnished home with large open yard and private patio is a true delight. Offering an open floor plan, with both front door and side door access, you will discover how bright this cottage truly is. Accessing this wonderful home via the side entrance mudroom you will find yourself in the home's gorgeous fully appointed kitchen with beach tiled backsplash and breakfast bar. As you make your way through the kitchen area, you will enter the large Dining Room with access to both the bonus room/office (front room) and side Living Room areas. Moving into the Living Room, you will again find a large room with lots of windows and a gas fireplace and sliding barn door which opens into the den. The den, which was added in 2020, is accentuated with natural wood shiplap accents on both the walls and ceiling and offers a full en-suite bath. Going back through the Dining Room area to the front office room you will not only find a large space to make your own, but will also find access via the stairway to the two second floor bedrooms and additional full bath with washer/dryer and separate en-suite washing station. Rounding out this beautiful home is a full unfinished basement which can be accessed both from inside the home and from the outside, that houses mechanicals, storage and offers a separate work bench area. Boasting just over a half acre of land, and a separate fenced off patio area with a fire pit off the side mudroom, this home is the perfect place for you to create new seaside memories with your family! Walkable to the beach, restaurants and shops!
