Delightful and sunny home in prime spot overlooking Sandy Bay and Rockport village. Scenic views and natural light are the hallmarks of this impeccably maintained 2-3 BR, 2 bath residence, which features an open concept floor plan and endless views of the Atlantic and the parade of fishing boats and pleasure craft in and out of Granite Pier. The first level features a sun-filled kitchen with soapstone counters and dining area with ocean-facing picture windows, family room with access to granite patio, den/study w/gas burning stove and full bath. Upstairs a sun splashed reading area with cathedral ceiling and French doors opens to a deck looking over the bay and town, as well as primary and second bedrooms and full bath. Launch your boat from the pier or explore the many attractions moments away, including Flat Ledge Quarry, Front Beach or downtown Rockport with its world-renowned Performing Arts Center and colorful galleries and restaurants. Includes three off-street parking spaces.
