Recent upgrades include a brand-new 50-year roof, new gutters, and a 200-amp electrical panel. The renovated kitchen offers quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a clean coastal design. Four new energy-efficient mini-split systems provide year-round comfort, while a heated floor in the upstairs bath adds a luxurious touch.The home is supported by a six-bedroom septic system, offering flexibility and expansion potential.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
