This beautifully maintained home has been extensively updated, offering true move-in-ready living. The 1st floor features a stunning chef’s kitchen with quartz countertops, custom cabinetry, and quality finishes throughout. Also on the main level are a spacious bedroom, dining area, front-to-back living room with a new gas fireplace, full bath, and an exceptional sunroom overlooking the expansive deck and backyard. Upstairs, you'll find a generously sized primary bedroom, two additional bedrooms, and a second full bath. A standout feature is the 12' x 20' shed with electricity and plumbing, offering exciting potential as a guest suite, in-law space, private office, studio, or workshop. Just steps from the property, enjoy deeded/shared access to the scenic Little River (which flows into the Annisquam), where you can swim, launch kayaks or paddleboards, go clamming, or simply take in the water views and coastal charm that make this location so desirable.
