Description

This sweet beach cottage sits back on a deep, 6,530. SF lot and the hill behind the house offers privacy and a great buffer from the NE winds. A wide deck makes for wonderful gathering and lovely water views across the street. You will find a spacious storage room and ample parking under the house offering many possibilities such as adding a tiki bar, picnic area with hammock for fun while out of the elements. The interior will not disappoint, you will find a comfortable 3BR/2BA with a spacious living area with vaulted ceilings and a generous kitchen with room for a large table. Freshly painted, with ceiling fans in all the rooms, the interior offers many windows for abundant natural light. A nice size master bedroom with full bathroom and two comfortable bedrooms with a full hall bathroom makes this a comfortable and easy layout.This sweet 1,008.SF cottage will suit well for year-round living, a fabulous second home or a great investment property. The owners did repairs and touch ups, the faade, deck, stairs and driveway was power washed, the heat pump was replaced in 17, the refrigerator in 22 and the water heater in 23. The previous owners replaced the deck and some siding, front sliding glass doors and framing in 2014. The septic lines, filter and the roof were replaced in 2006. This Beach Cottage is located in the fabulous gated Soundfront Community of Colington Harbour and offers just the right amenities for a very reasonable HOA fee: gated entrance, a huge sound side park with sandy beaches, a playground, bathrooms, sheltered picnic areas, a basketball court, as well as a boat launch with access to the Albemarle Sound and boat slips for rent. For a nominal fee, residents may also join the Yacht and Racket Club, which allows use of the two outdoor swimming pools, tennis courts, and community clubhouse. The seller believes the soft floor in the hall bathroom, caused by an old leak and remedied, is the cause of the strong odor in the house and that replacing the floors and sub-floors will take care of the issue.
