Fabulous seaside cottage that overlooks Narragansett Bay and Allen's Cove. Get home from work and have a swim in the cove or collect seashells along the expansive beach. Tucked away on a quiet dead end street this serene cottage is the perfect hideaway, with its pretty wood floors and bay window with beautiful views of Narragansett Bay. There are three bedrooms and one and half baths, with views from almost every room. Surrounded by a wild flower garden with a charming potting shed in the backyard - it is a gardeners delight. Enjoy watching the osprey swoop over Allen's Cove plus all sorts of wonderful bird life along the shore. Sit on the deck and enjoy everything this peaceful setting has to offer. Watch all the boat traffic on Narragansett Bay. Just a short stroll to the Latham Park Playgound where you can enjoy a concert on the park lawn while the kids play on the playground equipment. Keep your boat at one of the two local marinas. It's a gem!!! The house needs work and is being sold in "as is condition" - but it is definitely worth the effort!
