Willard Beach cottage-style cutie, walking distance to the beach, restaurants, shops, and trail system! This Art Deco era cottage is beautifully refreshed with a soft palette of coastal colors throughout, and a magnificent family room addition. All the character of the original home remains, starting right at that charming, stone-clad entry. The living room with its beamed ceiling, deco-style fireplace, and arched cabinetry is as cozy as can be. (The fireplace is updated with an efficient gas insert.) A first floor bedroom sits next to a sparkling, vintage-style full bath. The original hardwood flooring remains, in lovely condition. And the kitchen, with white cabinets and black countertops, includes plenty of room for a cheerful breakfast table by the windows. On the second floor you'll find two more large bedrooms, each with a heat pump for complete comfort. A gorgeous renewed bathroom, with walk-in shower and ocean-colored tile accents, serves this floor. And tucked into a picturesque gable, there's a sunny office, as well as a laundry area. But back to that family room: At the back of the house, in perfect privacy, is an airy, sunny room with a cathedral ceiling. Large enough for living and dining rooms combined, it's the contemporary addition every antique home yearns for! Remote controlled shades help to manage the abundant sunlight. Off one side of the great room, you'll find a new and super-private deck. Off the other side is a large wrap-around patio, connecting to an oversized garage. This large lot is remarkably private, with mature landscaping on three sides. The basement is large, with great headroom, and the guaranteed dryness provided by a new T.C. Hafford system. This sweet house has it all, in one of the hottest neighborhoods in the nation! Seller would appreciate a rent-back of 30-60 days at $2,200/month. Open House Sunday 1-3. Offers due by September 12, noon. Seller will honor deadline.
