Nestled in Garrison Cove on Bailey Island, this beachfront cottage has recently been fully renovated with lots of love and attention, honoring its original character while adding new and comfortable amenities. Set against a working waterfront and framed by the Cribstone Bridge, this cottage offers private water frontage with a mooring & a view so picturesque we call it ''Harbor TV''. There's no shortage of spaces to enjoy the outdoors. Start your day with coffee on the covered porch, wrap around deck or on a kayak ride. End it with evening drinks by the beachside fire pit. Host backyard pizza parties with the hand-built wood-fired pizza oven, using herbs and tomatoes from the garden. After an ocean plunge rinse off in the outdoor rinse station. Enter through the mudroom, where a custom cherry bench provides a place to remove your shoes, hang up your bags and store your cooler behind sliding pegboard doors. Up the steps is a cook's kitchen featuring a Blue Star range with hood, brass backsplash, Smeg refrigerator, mahogany countertops & a porthole window. Enjoy the ease of entertaining in the open kitchen, dining and living with panoramic views of the water. Take the edge off cool summer days or keep warm in the winter by the Jøtul Combifire 4. The cozy nook off the main room is great for reading a book, watching a movie or putting up a guest. The spacious primary bedroom, featuring ensuite half bath and sliding doors to the porch, offers bedside views of the ocean. A cast iron sink, unlacquered brass faucet, built-in storage, and tile shower create a rare combination of character & comfort in the monochromatic shared full bath.
