Why they chose this property
The South Shore has tonnes of beaches, nature trails and the town of Chester is absolutely charming with all the amenities close by. Walking distance to the Haughn Estate trails which lead to the Chester Connection trails is perfect for walking the dog, jogging or biking. There are fabulous restaurants close by with views of Chester Basin or Mahone bay and offer something for everyone. Sensea spa, Oak Island, Chester Golfcourse, Hubbards Beach are just a short drive away.
What makes this property unique
Back a short distance from from the paved road makes the cottage easily accessible all year round while being next to middle river gives the cottagy vibes we love. The cottage has cute clutter free esthetic with everything you'd need such as BBQ, espresso machine, woodstove and fire pit to enjoy your vacation. It's a steep climb to the river and grassy knoll but if you're feeling up for it it's well worth it and my absolute favorite place to read a book in the hammock.
