This charming cottage is ideally situated well back from the road on a bluff, offering both privacy and a sweeping view of the ocean facing west, perfect for watching the changing cloud formations, the fog drifting in, and best of all the sun setting over the mainland 10 miles away. Built in 1907, it was the home of the artist Alfred Fuller, and for several summers was rented by George Bellows, who used the living room as his studio. Downstairs you will find a large, well-equipped kitchen and dining area; a living room with fireplace, library, and French doors opening on the wrap-around deck; a small den/office; and a powder room. Upstairs are three bedrooms (queen, double, and single) and a good-sized bathroom with claw-foot tub and hand-held shower. Paintings and antiques are scattered here and there. The old square piano is out of tune, but it does have the distinction of having once been played in this house by Sergei Rachmaninoff. The yard is bordered by tall shrubs and apple and fir trees, and features lawn areas and small garden beds.
Accessibility has been enhanced by a boardwalk with railing leading up to the back door, some hand grips at doorways, and higher toilets. The stairs have railings on both sides. The den off the kitchen can also be a bedroom for one person if stairs are a problem.
Also provided: wi-fi; limited solar electricity for illumination at night and charging devices (CPAP not a problem); a gas heater in the kitchen to take the chill off in cool weather; and so far, firewood.
No Pets. No smoking on the property. Accommodates a strict maximum of four.
(Note: the artist studio is not included, but with advance notice may be rented by our tenants for $200 per week. It is 18 x 24 feet in size, and features a cathedral ceiling, working surfaces, and north windows facing the ocean. The studio has also been used for meditation, yoga, writing, etc.)
