About This Home
Stylishly decorated by a professional designer with a breezy coastal flair, this charming cottage is the kind of place that makes you exhale the moment you walk in. Light, curated, and fully furnished, it feels like a true retreat from the everyday. Beach access is just a ten-minute walk from your front door, putting razor clamming, beachcombing, and epic Pacific sunsets well within reach. Seabrook is just minutes away with its boutique shops, restaurants, and beloved Pacific Northwest resort-town atmosphere -- all the charm, without the Seabrook price tag. Whether you are searching for your own personal slice of the coast or a turnkey vacation rental investment, this cottage delivers on both counts. Thoughtfully updated in 2018 with a full gut renovation: updated electrical and panel with USB outlets throughout, new plumbing, new insulation, raised ceilings for an open and airy feel, new water heater, new roof, and new vinyl flooring with overhead lighting. The porch and deck are only three years old, with a new fence and shed added in fall 2025. RV-ready with exterior electrical hookup and hot/cold water -- great for rinsing gear, clams, or the dog after a beach day. Ring cameras and exterior security lighting included. Survey on file and recorded.
