Welcome to West Island, a quiet beachside community yet still close to all the area’s amenities without the chaos of the Cape. Take a day trip to NewBedford, Boston, Newport or Providence! A must see, this rare 10 room home is meticulously renovated and is a short walk to beaching, boating, and kayaking, the West Island Creamery, and Off the Hook restaurant for dining and entertainment. Huge master bedroom has its own balcony, first-floor handicap accessible en suite is all new, and a third spacious bedroom has been tastefully updated. The windowed sunroom is an artist’s delight, while the chef’s kitchen boasts quartz countertops and all new appliances. Enjoy a toasty fire in the cozy family room or marvel at the open concept and soaring vaulted ceilings. Large patio out back installed just last year. Off street parking for 6+ vehicles. Huge dry basement is partially finished. Need space? This is one of the largest homes on West Island and truly is one of a kind! Buyer's agent welcome.
