Welcome to "Shooting Star," the old school Plum Island Beach cottage you've been dreaming about! Situated on the prettiest section of PI shoreline, this 3BR home is designed for quiet respite and memorable moments with family and friends. Fall asleep to the soothing sound of the waves, a distant bell buoy or fog horn, and wake to breathtaking sunrises & 'first footprints in the sand'. Spectacular ocean views from the spacious family room & primary BR, and a rare full basement (above-grade) offers future expansion possibilities for additional BRs, a home office, or an epic recreation room. A positively private feel to this section of beach, with few neighboring homes & no nearby parking lots. A dressing room shed holds all your beach gear & a 2-car garage with ample off-street parking is an added bonus. Named for the unparalleled stargazing in this sweet island enclave, far from intrusive city lights, Shooting Star is more than home; it's a lifestyle. This rare find won't last long.
