About 552 Port Rd
Perched above the waters of Sanborn Cove, this exceptional 1.13+/- acre property offers panoramic views, 318' of waterfront, and unmatched coastal charm. Originally built in 2001 as a two-story garage and converted into living space in 2004, the structure now features a renovated loft with high-end finishes throughout. A spiral staircase connects the ground-level garage, bedroom, and workshop to a stunning second-floor retreat with a custom kitchen, living area, craft room/office, bedroom, and bath -all showcasing quality materials, modern appliances, and thoughtful design.

Kitchen boasts a built-in oven, microwave, drawer-style fridge and dishwasher (never used), butcher block counters, marble shelving, and a pantry. Two mini-splits, a linear propane fireplace, track lighting, and a washer/dryer enhance comfort and efficiency. While the renovations are nearing completion, a few finishing touches remain. All materials already on-site will convey with the sale. The grounds are a showcase of curated landscaping - complete with arbors, trellises, fountains, perennial gardens, and privacy-enhancing fencing. Enjoy sunrises from the patio or upcoming deck (in the process of being completed), with seabirds and seals as your morning company.
