Charming little house on the saltmarsh, backyard has views, a rose covered shingled shed, privacy fencing on two sides, garden, outdoor fireplace and towering shade tree. Built in 1963 by a local craftsman, it has the air of an Essex cottage of years ago. It is presently configured as a one-bedroom apartment with ample kitchen, living area with working fireplace, full bath and additional half bath off a good-sized bedroom with a slider that opens onto a 10 x 16 foot deck with marsh views that steal the show. The original second bedroom and the garage were converted into a retail food venue with an additional half bath and approved fixtures and second means of egress. Prperty is being sold as is.
