Why they chose this property
The neighborhood and location are what what drew me to this property. It is a quiet, cul-de-sac neighborhood with <10 homes on the street, but yet centrally located in Westbrook. Having the ability to walk to local favorites, including Water's Edge, is Ideal for families, a couples or friends getaway, those traveling on business, or anyone looking to vacation surrounded by all the amenities of home.
The added bonus was the shoreline view from the decks!
