Completely renovated with new septic, solar, appliances,.. 1000 SF home sleeps 7 directly across the street from one house on a private beach. Enjoy water views of Long Island Sound from a large 4-season porch/front room with windows on three sides full 4-seater sofa and four cushioned rattan chairs newly recovered with ottomans and coffee tables. Walk inside to large living room with 3 seater and 2 seater sofas, large cushioned chair with ottoman and more little side tables. This room is open through dining and kitchen and views of miles of protected salt marsh views from the full deck along the back of the house. The deck has a loveseat, 2 lounge chairs and coffee table on one end, a new Weber grill, dining table and 6 chairs on the other end - there is also an outside shower. The house has a one level, spacious open floor plan of a large front room, kitchen, living room, leading to two bedrooms and a full bath with bath tub/shower. This Home has central air & heat throughout, washer/dryer, full kitchen with new appliances and a dishwasher (with soap so you can run it every night), cabinets full of dishes, glassware, pots & pans - I leave detergent, soaps, everything you need. New bath (tub/shower, toilet, large vanity with sink) and four drawer bureau full of extra linens and towels. Washer/Dryer unit means anything can be cleaned easily - I even leave detergent. Each bedroom has new mattresses, 2 pillows/person, blankets & quilts with sheets, so you can be comfortable even on cool nights. The pullout sofa bed also has its own set of sheets, pillows and blanket. There are overhead fans in each room if you want to open windows. The deck runs along the full back of the house, high above the marsh, so watching the birds & sunset is wonderful. Deck has a gas grill, seating for 8 on the deck - dine outside or in - outside shower on deck. And the beach is a short walk across the street! Shore Road is a 20mph, wonderful to walk or ride (bring your bikes), lined with summer homes with families.

A lot of seating a lot of room offering a lot of comfort on a quiet street with a spacious house on a quarter acre grassy lot.

The house was gutted 14 years ago, raised and new electrical, plumbing, roof, windows, doors, ceilings, walls, floors, bath and kitchen completely new. Central air & heat and overhead ceiling fans in all rooms for fresh cross breeze from the sound or marsh. 2 bedrooms offer private sleeping quarters, while sofas offer extra spots with one queen pullout sofa bed. White sofa and loveseat, cushy chair and ottoman in the living room have two end tables and a coffee table, large 50' TV with DVD & cable will entertain at night. Separate front room allows for two groups of people to do their own thing (with a door in between) in one house and features a 4 seater rattan, custom-covered sofa and matching 4 chairs and ottoman, side table, coffee table, and bookcase with books and games. The kitchen has new dishwasher, refrigerator, oven/4 burner cooktop, microwave, toaster oven, coffee maker, baking sheets & pans, serving dishes, wine glasses...it also has a drop-leaf table (which expands) with five matching chairs and 2 spares inside (+4 outside) to add. Dine inside or out on the deck - you can see the sunsets and watch osprey and other birds in the salt marsh - another beautiful view. The beach across the street is only shared with one house (whose older inhabitants rarely leave their deck) so the beach is not crowded and access to the water is direct. Bring your walking shoes, bicycles or kayaks and enjoy! Route 1 two miles away with Stop & Shop, Shop Rite, TJ Max, Clinton & five miles is Westbrook Outlet shopping, cinemas, with many family and fine restaurants along the ride. Wonderful place to vacation with quick access to nearby Madison's State Park on the water, small towns with their historic sites and antique shops to wander through. I can give you many ideas to fill your days or nights when you want a break from enjoying the beach.

    The cottage was nice, right across from the beach, had a nice sunroom to sit in and enjoy a bit of a view. It had everything you need for the kitchen, including some spices and pasta. Bed was comfortable and it was a cozy little place!! We would go back!

    Lovely little beach cottage with deeded beach access, just the right size for two. Great neighborhood. Marie was delightful and a very attentive and responsive host.

    For some reason the owner considers it is acceptable to have sewage flow onto the back lawn after a shower or use of washing machine she told us this had happened to prior renters and she told wait and it will sink in the ground. The smell was horrible on the back porch and when the wind shifted it was also in the front porch. After complaining she did have it pumped out as a temporary fix. Also the cottage was located right behind a falling down shack which was not shown in the photos. The property was misrepresented. A partial refund was requested and denied.

    Perfect location right across the street from our private beach. Nice, clean cottage. Air conditioning was great! A little book with local restaurants, tips and the wifi code as well as a few good fry pans would have made it perfect .

    Property was just what we needed for extended stay to visit kids, grandkids, and family. Very peaceful, quiet, enjoyable, and relaxing, especially the front room. The deck in the back overlooking the marsh land was also very enjoyable and provided a completely different perspective. Owner was extremely cooperative and accommodating to our needs.

    . . . and a very helpful host! The spacious cottage is right across from the beach, with terrific views, including lots of big windows, and Marie was very responsive when we needed some attention upon moving in. The air conditioning was great, and there were plenty of nice restaurants close by for takeout and otherwise. Our only regret was that we couldn't stay longer.

    We had a wonderful week at Marie’s house! The pictures don’t do it justice. We comfortably had 3 adults, 2 kids, and a dog stay there and would host dinners for an additional 2 adults and 2 kids. It never felt crowded as the layout is great with multiple seating areas. Loved the added amenities like dishwasher and laundry detergent. And the AC was a godsend during the mid-90 degree days! You won’t regret your stay here.
