About this home

Seabreezes and sunshine lure you here. This home is as close to new construction as possible, taken to framing and completely rebuilt, inside & out. All new exterior. All new interior. All new HVAC, electric & plumbing. New driveway. For those seeking a refined coastal home with character, abundant possibilities and room to live beautifully, 5 Cottage is a rare opportunity. Set on nearly half an acre atop a knoll, 5 Cottage St offers ocean views, privacy and an extraordinary sense of place—just minutes from Boston. This beautiful parcel provides a place for homesteading & will also prove to be a wise investment as if offers further development potential.* One of just 2 homes on a quiet side street, this thoughtfully reimagined 4-5-bedroom, 3.5-bath home pairs soaring 10-foot ceilings, tall windows and an elegant curved staircase with a beautifully renovated interior designed for today's lifestyle. The chef's kitchen is a true centerpiece, featuring a generous island with seating for 5+, extensive custom cabinetry and a premium Thermador appliance suite. You'll be enjoying many family dinners & hosting many guests. The flexible living spaces are not only perfect for entertaining, they also accommodate multigenerational living. Need a private office? It's here. Need an artists studio? It's here. Or a guest retreat? It's here. The expansive front porch and secluded rear patio create effortless spaces for entertaining, playing or simply savoring the ocean air. Out & about, Nahant's private beaches, sailing, surfing, Kelly Greens golf and Nahant Country Club tennis are moments away. Boston is remarkably accessible by road or ferry. This is coastal living.
