Just a short walk from Mermaid Cove, with deeded access to a private beach where you can launch a kayak, paddleboard, or small boat. The grounds feature a thriving orchard with MacIntosh and Cortland apple trees, Bartlett pears, black cherries, cultivated blackberries, strawberries, and a large organic vegetable garden. A thoughtfully designed outbuilding has housed laying hens for years, making this an ideal property for anyone dreaming of a backyard micro farm and fresh eggs each morning. Blending timeless Island character with exceptional modern design, a stunning barn-inspired addition completed in 2022 dramatically expanded the home. Adding to the existing 3 bedrooms and 2 full baths, the expansion added a light-filled four-season sunroom, an impressive dining space that comfortably welcomes family and friends, and a warm, inviting living area centered around a contemporary wood stove. Built with insulated concrete forms (ICF), the addition delivers outstanding energy efficiency, exceptional sound insulation, and remarkable durability.

It is a space that inspires gathering, creativity, and memorable meals. The oversized 24' x 32' garage offers soaring 17-foot ceilings and an expansive loft, presenting exciting possibilities for a guest suite, artist's studio, Airbnb, or additional private living space.
