- Description: Beauty on the Basin. Imagine waking to gorgeous sunrises, unwinding to spectacular sunsets as the marsh grass ripples gold, and falling asleep to the sound of waves nearby. Set on beloved Plum Island, this tastefully remodeled coastal home offers the quintessential New England beach lifestyle, with beautiful basin views from nearly every room. The open-concept first floor is designed for easy living and entertaining, with an updated kitchen featuring a center island, granite countertops, and stainless-steel appliances. This flows seamlessly into the dining area and sun-filled living room, with hardwood floors throughout. A cozy gas fireplace adds warmth and ambiance, while a full bath with laundry completes the main level. Upstairs, the primary suite offers a true retreat, with a vaulted-ceiling bedroom and sliders opening to a private deck-an idyllic spot for morning coffee or evening stargazing. The second bedroom also opens to its own scenic deck and is complemented by a spacious full bath with double vanities, ideal for family or guests. Designed for effortless coastal living, the home features low-maintenance Hardie board siding, expansive wrap-around decks and porches with durable vinyl decking. A charming Reeds Ferry shed for additional storage. Beautiful gardens to enjoy. A fenced yard, four-car driveway, and seashell walkways adding privacy, convenience, and seaside character. Boaters take note: this comes with a deep-water basin mooring offering the opportunity to keep a boat just steps from home. Beyond the property, Plum Island offers miles of shoreline, windswept dunes, and the protected beauty of the Parker River Refuge. Minutes to the beach in the morning, bike or kayak along the river and basin in the afternoon and come home to the rare luxury of barefoot island calm. Easy access to all of Plum Island businesses, Restaurants and Newburyport's downtown and Harbor areas. This is coastal living at its best.
