IF I WERE IN THE MARKET for a restored fisherman’s cottage right now, I would check out this listing. It’s near where I live in Springs (East Hampton), N.Y., and right around the bend from a spectacular bay beach, Louse Point.
Both house and garden are bright and tidy. It’s 1,100 sq. ft., with a back porch and finished attic, which can be a third bedroom.
I wish it was on more than 1/4 acre, and had older windows, but you can’t have everything. The asking price is not unreasonable for these parts.
The detached garage has been converted to a ‘loom room,’ below.
I saw this house last year. It’s adorable – a bit too small for my family but I loved it. Very charming…. & the backyard is lovely too.
It’s been on the market that long? Well, then, you know what that means – the price is negotiable!
