Why they chose this property
Location, location, location! Pick up breakfast from the local stand before planning your day at the beach. If you need a break from the sun, you can take a leisurely bike ride around Black Point or go shopping on Main Street.
The house is practical too. You're halfway between Boston and New York, with a number of major employers in town. And if you're here for an extended work trip, wouldn't you rather have space to unwind at the end of the day?
