Property Description
BLUE SHUTTER A cottage with personality plus. Formerly an ice cream store this island Landmark was transformed into a small but very functional living space. Renovated in the early 2000's it has just gotten better with each successive owner. Featuring an open floor design with galley kitchen and breakfast counter, dining area, living room, bath and 2 bedrooms upstairs. Surrounded by beautiful gardens and a fenced-in yard. Enjoy your family and friends while lounging in the side yard watching the shore birds and boats slip thru the passage. Better yet, a stairwell to the beach. Spend the day playing on the beach, taking a dip, going out for a paddle or simply sitting in your beach chair reading a book or taking a snooze. This waterfront gem has breathtaking water views of the Diamond Islands, Diamond Passage, Casco Bay and the Portland skyline with stunning sunsets setting over the harbor. The TEIA sailing/tennis club is just down the shore and you are also close to all island services. It really does not get any better than this. A rare opportunity to be the caretaker of Blue Shutter.
