Tiny home, big potential. Tucked in Bear Pen Cove with a year round creek along the edge and no homes across the water, this spot feels surprisingly private and quiet. Metal roof with solar keeps the power bill low while the efficient layout gives you a loft plus a separate bedroom, full bath, and a bright main living space with clean finishes. Outside, you get a wired shed, front deck for morning coffee, and plenty of native plants, fruit trees, berry bushes, and herbs already in the ground. Easy access, simple upkeep, and room to garden or just sit by the creek. A small place that lives larger than you expect.
