Get excited by 14 Elsmere, the sweetest home on the street, just 3 minutes from Willard Beach. The front yard is lined with gorgeous beach roses; a buoy hangs from the corner of the porch. This two bedroom home includes an additional office nook making the floorplan flexible for many. Entering the home through the front entrance, you will find a sweet breezeway perfect for hanging coats and storing shoes. The large living room is perfect for enjoying cool evenings by the Fuego wood-burning stove. Just to the right of the living room is a corner nook perfect for a desk or could be an expansion of the kitchen. This area sits between the back entrance and the kitchen. The kitchen and dining area with vaulted ceiling are open-concept and offer plenty of cabinet and counter space as well as a bar area for your morning coffee. Off from the dining room, through sliding glass doors is a deck overlooking an expansive, fully fenced-in backyard. Finishing off the first floor is a primary bedroom, a full bathroom and another bedroom currently used as an office. The dry basement has a small finished area and a larger area perfect for storing seasonal decor. This charming cottage is a stones throw to Willard Beach and Willard Square, where you can take a morning stroll for the most amazing bagel at Scratch Baking Co. or grab an afternoon ice cream at Willard Scoops. Just down the street, you can enjoy a savory BBQ at Elsmere BBQ.
