Seamlessly designed for effortless entertaining and coastal living, the main level features a formal dining room and a fully renovated chef's kitchen (2021). The spacious living room, anchored by a cozy fireplace, and a light-filled three-season sunroom offer breathtaking water views, spilling out onto the updated porches (2023)-the perfect vantage point to look out over the beautiful yard and gardens leading to the water. Upstairs, you will find three bedrooms and a dedicated home office, highlighted by a primary bedroom that serves as a private oasis with an expansive second-floor porch and unforgettable, panoramic vistas. Outdoor living is truly unmatched here, boasting 65 feet of direct, prime waterfrontage on Holly Pond complete with a private dock (2021) and a brand-new roof (2026), making this home as turn-key as it is beautiful. Whether you are taking a boat cruise, launching a kayak, or enjoying an evening by the water, this property offers a seamless lifestyle.
