Sweeping marshfront views meet beachside bliss at Higgins Beach. Imagine waking each day to the soft light rising over open marshland, the salty air drifting through, and the sound of waves from the beachfront, a short stroll away. Tucked quietly at the end of a dead-end street on the outer edge of the Higgins Beach neighborhood, this well maintained 4-bedroom, 1.5-bath cottage offers a remarkable blend of beach living and marshfront tranquility. Step out your back door to direct water access—perfect for launching a kayak or paddleboard and gliding along the serene tidal currents across the marsh and through Angel Creek. Whether birdwatching with your morning coffee or catching golden hour reflections in the evening, the unobstructed marsh views are nothing short of spectacular. The expansive lawn, an exceptional luxury in this coveted beachside community, is ideal for entertaining, playing lawn games, or simply enjoying the peace and quiet. The beach is just steps away, making it easy to enjoy walks on the sand, ocean swims, or evenings listening to the surf from your enclosed porch or backyard hammock. After a beach day, rinse off in the outdoor shower or newly renovated bathroom and gather with friends in the quiet shade and breezes of the backyard. Inside, the home exudes coastal charm with warm wood finishes and a light, airy feel that invites you to unwind. The kitchen and dining room offer picturesque views of the marsh egrets and herons. The enclosed porch is perfect for casual meals or quiet moments with a book, while the cozy living spaces offer room to gather and relax. The heat pump system keeps the home comfortable and ensures restful sleeping spaces on warm summer nights or cozy warmth over cool months. Further, this turn-key cottage, which will convey mostly furnished, boasts a strong rental history with great upside potential. Whether seeking a serene year-round retreat or seasonal getaway, this home delivers the best of Higgins Beach.
