Prime location and the beach! Here is your opportunity to experience the charm of this delightful, two-bedroom cottage and take advantage of two beach accesses. Step inside to discover a light-filled open area that lives much larger with two attached three-season porches. Its Southern side location and combined double lot beckon your ideas and big-picture vision. Beachy natural landscaping welcomes you to a space ready for transformation, and a large shed has plenty of room to store your bikes, surfboards, and kayaks. This property has an excellent rental history and is ready for you to take advantage of and enjoy the rest of the summer on the beach! Just imagine living the relaxing island life surrounded by nature and the sound of waves, yet only minutes away from all that downtown Newburyport has to offer.
