This idyllic property feels like a magical escape from reality. Nestled beneath a magnificent chestnut tree and overlooking the peaceful waters of Crocketts Cove, this 2 bedroom cottage and boathouse is a true gem. Built in the late 1800s, the cottage has been thoughtfully restored and updated while retaining its original charm and character. Resting on 1.8 acres of land bordering conservation land, this property offers a secluded and tranquil setting, perfect for those seeking a rejuvenating retreat. The boathouse, situated on the water's edge, provides a secure storage spot for kayaks, canoes, or a small boat, and easy access to the water. Along with the boathouse, the property has 350 feet of tidal shorefront and its own private island named Two Bush. In the cove, remnants of a granite pier still exist, which could be restored to reach deeper waters. Nature lovers will also appreciate the 40-acre Tip Toe Mountain Preserve, which is just a short walk away. The preserve offers multiple well-maintained trails and hikes leading to breathtaking sunset viewpoints that are locally renowned. This unique and captivating property is a dream come true for those seeking a truly special retreat in a serene and natural setting.
