Discover West Island, a hidden treasure full of natural beauty yet close to all the region's attractions without the Cape traffic. This cozy cottage with water views, on one of the Island's larger properties with a half acre corner lot. This ranch has been purposely and tastefully renovated to maximize every inch of space with the added bonus of an oversized 2-car garage with plenty of storage, and a fabulous second floor "Great Room". Enjoy water views out the double sliders and balcony deck. For your summertime overflow company there is a back yard "Bunk house". The yard is nicely landscaped with stone and pavers and each side has scenic views to the water. The grassy side yard is a great place for fun and games. The convenient outdoor shower is nicely enclosed. Nothing to do but move in as it has all been done, inside and out, top to bottom. Recent updates include new windows, doors, siding, electrical, AC, lighting, The kitchen has new cabinets, quartz countertops, new appliances, including a washer/dryer. Bathroom is also completely updated. An Improvement spec sheet is attached as there are too many to list.
