Welcome to your waterfront cottage in Pasadena, where the view steals the show! From the yard, the glass sunroom, and the end of your private pier with a boat lift, wide open water stretches across the creek. The sunset skies are breathtaking, like Mother Nature painting a new picture every evening. On the 4th of July and New Year’s Eve, neighbors around the water light up the sky with fireworks, and you’ll have a front-row seat. Wildlife is all around: blue herons, eagles, ducks, deer, rabbits, goldfinches, bluebirds and more. This brick and cedar shake cottage sits on a deep, level lot of about half an acre, shaded by mature trees, with plenty of open lawn running down to the water. The glass sunroom on the water side is the spot for morning coffee or watching the boats go by. Inside, the large living room has a masonry fireplace and a tray ceiling. The main level also has two bedrooms, a full bath, the dining room, and laundry just off the dining room, so you could live on one level if you like. Upstairs are two more bedrooms and a huge unfinished room, ready to become a primary suite with a closet and private bath, with room to add a second upstairs bath. The kitchen is small, so you can design the kitchen you want from the ground up. Outside, there’s room for all your gear and hobbies: a detached two-car garage with a huge storage loft above, a large barn-style shed on the road side, a screened crab shack with room for picnic tables (crab feasts, anyone?), and a shed by the water for life jackets, fishing rods, and crab pots. The long driveway has room for a boat trailer and extra parking. Go to dinner by boat, car, or even bike: the Rumor Reel, a popular waterfront restaurant, is just minutes away. This home needs a full renovation and is sold as-is. Bring your vision and your contractor. A waterfront lot like this, with a pier, a lift, and this view, is a rare find.
