A coastal home with character, artistry and timeless appeal. This distinctive 2/3 bedroom, 2 full bath home offers beautiful water views and architectural details rarely found today. Step into the spacious living room where rich hardwood floors and striking quarter sawn molding set the tone, continuing into the dining room and beautifully updated kitchen. Quartz counters, stainless steel appliances and a Bertazzoni propane range and hood blend modern style with classic craftsmanship. A full bath completes the main level. Outside, discover a private garden oasis with lush landscaping, a stone patio, pergola and tranquil koi pond. Upstairs, the primary bedroom opens to an oversized private deck where sweeping water views create a peaceful retreat. A second bedroom and spacious updated bath complete this level. The light filled third floor adds an artistic touch, currently used as a studio but equally suited for a third bedroom, office or creative space. A full basement with Bilco doors offers a new washer and dryer and ample storage. No flood insurance required. Close to beaches, town, dining, trains and highways, this is coastal living with a style all its own.
