    Beach access, generous land, and exciting future potential! This charming two-bedroom cottage sits on a 5,200+/- square-foot lot with public beach access just a short stroll away at the end of the road. Whether you're looking for a Cape escape, investment property, or an opportunity to create something more, this property offers plenty of possibilities. Inside, the cottage has a warm, casual beach-house feel, with hardwood floors, a cathedral-ceilinged living room, and a spiral staircase leading to a cozy sleeping loft.
