Why they chose this property

THIS home had ALL of the features we wanted.
* Ample square footage .. roomy .. not feeling crowded.
with an upstairs and downstairs living room/tv. The home was a two flat originally - so it has an upstairs and downstairs bathroom and living room
* Back and side yard .. room to play outside.
* Close to the beach and park - a few minute walk
* Close to harbor and town. a few minute walk.

So many homes sacrifice something .. all house and no yard ... all yard and no house - cramped. We wanted to walk to town and the beach and just park the car for the week after a grocery run.
Everyone can walk to and from the beach or town as they wish - kids, teens, adults .. movies, dinner, ice cream, night life.

We loved the 100+ year old home ...its old charm and updated amenities. Our beautiful home has a wonderful history and great vibe.

What makes this property unique

Our home has ALL of the pluses for a great stay. It sits on 1 1/2 city lots so there is extra room to gather and play. A good sized home AND outdoor living space within 5-10 minutes WALKING distance to a kids playground, beach and town.
- 2,400 sq foot home
- Front porch AND
- Yard Deck AND NEW PATIO
- Back and Side Yard AND
- Firepit AND
- Herb / tomato garden
- 2 blocks to playground / beach
- 4 blocks to town
