Property Description
A modified A-frame at the water's edge of the St. Croix River overlooking St. Croix Island, where the first French settlers landed in 1604. When you sit on your deck to enjoy the sunrise and your morning coffee you are looking at this historic island and Bayside, New Brunswick, Canada. You can hear the seals' barks, growls, and roars depending on the tide from their ledge island on the river or the screeches of soaring eagles above you. This 4-season house has been a year-round residence for years, essentially a tiny home with a grand deck and a killer view on 117' of the tidal St. Croix River. The property itself is approximately 40' from the beach. Red Beach is famous for its' pink granite. And this special little house has its' own private pink beach. The house features a kitchen/living room combination in one room, a mudroom area, a bedroom with a double bed, and a bathroom. There is a wraparound deck doubling the size of the house with stairs to the beach.
There is a well, a septic, a septic design for a 2nd house, and at the top of the property next to Route 1, a handsome 2-car heated garage with a loft ready for its' final touches. This is a true little gem of a property.
