This one of a kind waterfront home affectionately named “Drift Away” is move in ready! Peeking out beyond adjacent homes at the end of a private street, it’s the perfect location for peaceful, unobstructed 180 degree views. The sights and sounds of a lush waterfront marsh from every room beckons you to bird watch, practice yoga, or explore creative endeavors. Kayak, swim, watch sailboats, or read by a cozy fire as majestic snow owls soar by. It’s an expansive playground to relax or let your talents shine as bright as the natural light inside. Dine and entertain on the deck as you watch the rise and fall of the daily tides. It’s an unmatched experience and the “Chef’s Kiss” of coastal living. Each season brings new experiences and stirs favorite memories. Make it your yearlong home, share with family and friends, capitalize on the strong rental history, or combine all three! Plum Island living celebrates your individuality and passions so you can truly thrive and live your best life.
