About this home
Enchanting Waterfront Cottage w/private dock on peaceful Goose Cove. Enjoy gorgeous water views and looking over the Cove at the most spectacular nightly sunsets. Very serene and much like living on your very own nature preserve. The cottage is warm and welcoming, with a wood paneled, multi-windowed mudroom with storage benches at the entryway, front to back living/dining room, kitchen, first floor bedroom (currently used as a den with pull-out couch) and full bath, a family room/sunroom across the back of the home. The kitchen is older style with a fabulous classic double porcelain sink and tons of storage. You will find four more bedrooms upstairs and a second full bath w/tub and shower. Windows abound throughout the home, offering stellar views from every room, and letting in abundant light and heavenly breezes. The property is beautifully landscaped, providing a continuous rolling display of colorful perennials. Close to Plum Cove Beach, the coveted Lighthouse Beach, the Annisquam River, and multiple trailheads into protected woodlands a short walk from your door.
