This is a classic example of seaside perfection. The cottage has been artfully recreated to exemplify coastal charm. Simply walking in the door brings a smile to your face and instills a warmth for the memories your family will make. The interior is amazing in the details the owner has created which exude a level of detail unsurpassed with cottages along the shore. There are four bedrooms, two full baths plus a magnificent fireplace and beams that offer high ceilings…. Plus beautiful hand selected pine flooring. The deck captures exquisite views of the Atlantic Ocean. There is an expansive back yard and a sweet as can be shed which is a secret escape for fun for kids. Nuns Beach consists of approximately 8 homes and the access is a jump onto the rocks and a two minute walk to one of the most beautiful beaches in Rhode Island.
*Taxable value of land and structures on it ("additions") is determined regularly by local assessors and does not affect market price.
