Adorable 2 bedroom cottage just a short drive to the beach and located on a quiet dead end road. This small but spacious two bedroom home has been beautifully remodeled and boasts a brand new high end kitchen, updated bathroom, new maple hardwood engineered flooring, new trim, and freshly painted. Sit out on the back deck and take in the sounds of nature in the tranquil backyard. This home is part of Mautucket by the Sea beach association, if you choose to join, which gives you parking and beach and pond access. The home also comes with the adjacent abutting recreational lot which provides additional privacy. This peaceful home is perfect for year round living or to use as you vacation "home away from home".
