About this home
RARE PLUM ISLAND GEM! Own a piece of Plum Island history with the iconic “Arctic” Cottage, circa 1900—owned by only three families in 125 years!

Gleaming hardwood floors, classic cottage-board detailing and a fabulous wraparound porch showcase its timeless character. Recent improvements include new roof, furnace, tankless water heater, A/C compressor, and interior/exterior paint. Enjoy panoramic water views toward Newburyport, spectacular sunsets and watersports just steps away. Large parking area for 6+ cars. Strong rental history since 2007. A truly special once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!
