What's special

Abundant natural lightWoodland trailsWooded settingEstablished perennial gardensNew roofFrench doorsPainted wood floors

Tucked among the trees between Blue Hill and Brooklin, this 1930s cottage has the kind of character that's difficult to recreate. Renovated in 2007, the home offers two bedrooms, one bath, a spacious eat-in kitchen, and comfortable one-floor living. Period details, painted wood floors, and abundant natural light give the home warmth and personality throughout. The generously sized primary bedroom features French doors that open to the gardens. Set on 1.2 acres, the property includes established perennial gardens, woodland trails, and the beginnings of a treehouse tucked among the trees. A detached shed provides additional storage, while the wooded setting offers privacy without feeling isolated. A new roof was installed in 2024. Conveniently located between Brooklin and Blue Hill, the property is close to the Brooklin General Store, library, public beaches, and the Hundred Acre Wood trail system. Sweet and simple, this is the kind of home that feels easy to settle into.
