Breathtaking vistas await your large group at Orwell Cove Cottage, our modern, expansive waterfront paradise on Orwell Cove in Vernon Bridge. You will experience a real sense of space and privacy with the house set well in from the access road and surrounded on all sides by agricultural farmers fields which continue down to the shoreline. Although a local farmer keeps the land in-use, you can stroll down the tree-line to the shore where kids can explore or go digging for clams. Sunsets defy adequate descriptors from the outside deck and hot tub area to the 2 story vaulted ceiling living room with wall-to-wall floor-to-ceiling windows positioned due West for the most gorgeous and calming show on earth - sunset! Don’t worry if you miss a night - it encores daily and it never gets old!
Perfect for large groups, this large airy 4 bedroom, 4 bathroom, fully outfitted year-round home sleeps 12. Our home is beautifully furnished with high quality comfortable furniture throughout every room. The bright, open concept kitchen, dining and living room areas provide easy entertaining and amazing views. The main living space, with its floor-to-ceiling cathedral windows overlooking the water, has a wood-burning stove, library of books for all ages and smart TV for a cozy and entertaining evening. Never take your eyes off the water as you prepare your fresh island seafood in the modern, spacious, fully equipped kitchen. You can go through the garden doors to enjoy your meal outdoors on the expansive deck with hot tub and outdoor shower. Or you can cook outside, with our BBQ on the deck. After your busy day, enjoy the property and watch the stars come out.
While perfect for large groups, this home is sensibly laid out for privacy and comfort. The master bedroom is set high and alone on the upper level. It includes a large ensuite bathroom with jetted soaker tub, electric wall fireplace, walk-in closet, and queen bed. On the main floor, find a newly renovated and completely separate large in-law suite with 2 queen beds where occupants throw the doors open for breezy access to the main living space or close the double set of lock-off doors to provide seclusion from the rest of the home. The in-law suite enjoys complete privacy while retaining unparalleled views from its own glass garden doors leading to a completely separate deck. The additional two bedrooms on the main floor form their own couplet off a bedroom hallway. In this hall, you will find the full-sized, vented laundry space, a queen bedroom with full ensuite bath and another bedroom with 2 full beds that is serviced by the full bathroom in the hall across from the laundry. This home has been recently renovated by its new owners for comfort, modernity, and sustainability. WIFI is provided, along with a Tesla car-charger and high efficiency heat pumps with air conditioning.
