Owner’s Insight:

“I have spent 25 wonderful years enjoying this cottage, which has been my main residence, holiday home, and most recently a rental investment. The stunning 180-degree views and the ever-changing weather across the bay have never ceased to amaze me. One of the cottage’s best features is the beautiful garden space right on our doorstep, which, fortunately, we don’t have to maintain!”
