Fully rebuilt from the studs up, this one-of-a-kind cottage blends historic charm with modern comfort. Recent updates include new electrical (200-amp service), plumbing, insulation, drywall, and flooring throughout. A WETT-inspected wood stove adds warmth and character alongside efficient new baseboard heating. The main level features a bright, open layout with exposed original beams, natural pine and hemlock trim, and plenty of natural light. The spacious bathroom includes a classic clawfoot tub, creating a relaxing retreat. Upstairs offers a flexible layout with a full four-piece bath, a cozy guest room or office, and a versatile loft area that could serve as an additional bedroom, reading nook, or studio. Exterior highlights include a new roof (2022), fresh paint, new appliances, and a wired barn-style shed with double doors. The low-maintenance yard provides space for gardens, outdoor seating, or a greenhouse. Located in a peaceful rural setting just 8 minutes from shopping and 16 minutes from Yarmouth’s waterfront, farmers’ market, and amenities — this move-in-ready home perfectly combines quiet country living with convenience.
