Positioned in the heart of the village with a private dock on Carver's Harbor, this charming turn-of-the-century home offers all the advantages of village living while retaining privacy and intimacy year-round. Village living is wonderful! Enjoy walking to the ferry, island ice cream shop, Saturday Farmer's market, various eateries, shops, and more. When solitude is desired, step through the gate and escape to a private backyard with established perennial plantings, a large wharf for outside dining and entertaining, a sweet shingled 'Fish Shack' brimming with potential - as a studio, office, or playhouse--and of course views of the harbor. The home was built c. 1925 and has had many updates. It is oriented to the south, toward the ocean. Its original architectural details are complemented by tasteful modernity, including a welcoming open kitchen/dining area with a cozy built-in window seat and a sliding glass door that opens directly onto the backyard and wharf. The first floor also includes a walk-in pantry, living room with wood stove, an updated bathroom, laundry room, and a heated flex space facing Main Street for a studio/gallery or other commercial use. Upstairs is a well-appointed primary bedroom with a veranda overlooking the harbor, a charming full bath with a antique tub, a guest room with water views, a third bedroom on the street side, and a smaller room that could serve as a study, fourth bedroom, or bath. The home and outbuildings are in very good condition and will convey partially furnished with most everything you need for comfort & fun. Whether searching for a summer getaway or a year-round village residence, this harbor side property offers a fun island lifestyle!
