Arriving at the garden and seeing an old boat used as a planter tells you everything you need to know; this is a special place filled with charm like no other! A spacious outdoor seating area with a walled firepit offers protection on those windy nights spent around the fire but on a sunny day, the large wooden table comfortably sits large groups for family-style meals.

Past the floor-to-ceiling glass door, there is a modern kitchen with a stainless-steel countertop that runs the full length of the room and a white enamel wood-burner that you can get going when the weather gets colder. The medieval table adds patina to the room while the tongue and groove walls balance and complete the look. On the same floor, are also the reading and living rooms, both organized in front of fireplaces with exposed brick that leave them a bit unfinished and wild, so site-specific to their context.

Heading upstairs you’ll find a single room and the master bedroom with a cozy king-size bed and a vintage vanity table, as well as a bathroom with a large tub for bubble baths with a view of the ocean. Accessed via a ladder stair, the attic bedroom never fails to impress as it nests comfortably under the eaves of the top floor overlooking the waves crashing on the shore. Two more bedrooms, one twin and one double, are located on the lower ground floor with their own separate bathroom clad in terrazzo tiles that remind us of the beach outside.
