To the left rear side of the property sits the ''Blue Cottage,'' a 2BR/1BA home with a new metal roof (2023) that grossed $29 as a short-term rental in 2023, and was leased at $2,100/month in 2024.This cottage offers 868 square feet of heated and cooled living space, plus an additional 178 square feet of screened-in porch, giving you a total of 1,046 square feet of enjoyable space.

The large screened-in porch with flat screen TV and adjacent grilling deck invite year-round enjoyment. Inside, you'll find all-white paneled walls, beachy decor, and a split floor plan with barn doors to add character. The cottage is also plumbed for a future outdoor shower, pool, spa, or water feature, making it ready for the next phase of enjoyment.
On the opposite side of the lot sits "Crab Island," a 1BR/1BA guest cottage built in 2014, which grossed $19K in 2023 and is now leased at $1,650/month (as of April 2024). The studio offers 350 square feet of interior living space plus an expansive 236 square foot screened-in rear porch with large sliding glass doors that create an open, airy connection between indoor and outdoor living.
