Property description
Imagine - you have a kayak. You've had a long day. The weather is cooperating. This two bedroom home has rights and access to the Mill River and is accessible for all kinds of water activities. If you don't know, the Mill River heads out to the Annisquam and over to Wingaersheek Beach. Hot day? Walk to the end of of Clam Alley and jump in. Relax on the patio and enjoy views of river activities. A home you can live in year round or as a home away from home. Willow Rest with the best epicurean food anywhere is just a stone's throw away - pick up coffee and breakfast sandwiches when you most need a lazy weekend. This home anchors you into the Gloucester community and there's no better place to be. Many updates, including heating system and electrical. Potential for third bedroom. Showings by appointment only. See video at YouTube and Floor Plan available
