Close to Dutch Harbor, Sheffield Cove and the village, this hidden gem is beautifully set on a private, park-like .50-ac. in the heart of West Ferry, with amazing specimen trees and plantings, including an extraordinary copper beech at the entrance. The charming saltbox colonial perfectly blends traditional and contemporary spaces, including a living room with a wood beamed ceiling, wood-burning fireplace and brick fireplace wall, a dining area with a vaulted timber ceiling and skylights, a dramatic step-down, light-filled family room with a brick floor, gas fireplace, built-in library shelves, a domed skylight, french doors and palladian arch windows, a comfortable country kitchen with a tile back splash, skylights and a laundry room/pantry and a 230+ sq. ft. sun drenched entertainment/sun room with a soaring wood ceiling that opens to a back terrace framed by a magnificent magnolia that has a hot tub and outdoor shower and overlooks a sweeping lawn highlighted by a stone wall. The second floor bedrooms have timbered, cathedral ceilings and tiled bath areas brightened by skylights while the master bedroom is highlighted by brick accents on a wall. The home also offers a partially finished basement with plentiful storage, including five closets (3 of which are cedar), a new whole house generator (2018), a new roof on the main house and 7 skylights that were replaced in 2017. Warm and inviting, it is a delightful retreat.
