About this home

Best location on the Island. Walk to the beach and the basin and moor your boat at the end of the street. The lighthouse is right around the corner and so is the public beach, parking and the mouth of the Merrimack. Plum Peaceful is just that, a sweet cottage with updated kitchen, fun bath, cathedral ceilings, wainscoting galore. The gas stove heats the entire place and is a pretty focal point to the open floor plan. Built ins and benches provide extra storage and seating and a large storage closet with exterior access for beach toys. Come take a peek, you're going to love it!
