About this home

Step up into this quaint, cottage, and then, step down onto your own private, smooth pebble beach! This desirable beach community, The Hummocks , is tucked away in the northernmost point of the Sakonnet River in Portsmouth. Awaken to the glorious sunrise along the cove and the gentle lapping of waves upon your seawall. Sliding glass doors from both your open living area and sunroom will lure you out onto a deck that spans the entire length of the house. And from there, down to a terrace that expands the full length of the property with that gleaming water view and beautiful scenery surrounding. The modern updates of an open floor plan, new sliding glass doors, beautiful hardwoods throughout, new insulation, a remodeled kitchen and 2 full baths, means you can move right in! Bonus * Newly built enclosed outside shower! Live like you're on vacation, in this tucked away beachy retreat, with the conveniences of everyday living and easy access to nearby dining, shopping, historic attractions, Route 24 and more!
