Dramatic price correction. Motivated sellers. .11 acre property just steps to beautiful sandy Wildemere beaches. Rare opportunity to have a large piece of property with water views, walk to beaches and enjoy the best of Milford beach living. This home was built as a cottage in 1920 and the first floor retains the charm of a beach cottage with white wainescotting on the walls and ceiling and quaint "hidden" builtin storage along with the quirks of an older beach home. Previous owners added a large 2 story addition mixing the design of yesteryear's beach bungalows with modern living amenities. This home now offers a truly unique beach house experience with incredible flex spaces, water views, exceptional offstreet parking and backyard that feels like a private wooded sanctuary just steps from the shore. Start everyday with your toes in the sand and a cup of coffee, or take your kayak out and enjoy the sun glistening on the water and timeless views Charles Island. Bring your design ideas and refresh this beach house to the gem of the Milford shoreline that it can be. Ideal for year around living, rental property or an easy remodel project. 23 Hauser is the rear part of the property. It can only be used to for additional construction/additions/pools/garages/ etc for 26 Fairwood, it cannot have its own structure built on it. Buyers should do their due diligence with the city of Milford. Home to be sold in as-is condition. Subject to seller finding suitable housing. Tub jets in second level full bath do not work. Central air is on 2nd and 3rd floor only but is currently not working.
