When it happens and someone decides to let go, sometimes we find that the home has had most of the Major things that it needs like a Roof (2023), Walk-in Shower (2023) and HVAC (2014) Etc. but, other great features, Like a large (27 x 15) Sunporch which is Screened with Tile Floor and 2 Skylights, Metal storage Shed (8 x 10) All Appliances stay. Chatham Schools. This parcel also offers (+or-) 180' of Shoreline. From the Backyard looking (North) you can Accept see Marine Point, the Islands and beyond. (If you can see that far!) So, whether you update or update and build on or build a new one to your own specifications..............."JUST LOOK AT THAT VIEW".................
