Whimsical Cottage by the Sea: This rare 0.60-acre waterfront gem offers a perfect blend of town convenience and absolute privacy. Step from your lawn directly onto a sandy beach to swim, kayak, or watch the world-famous tides, or access the historic Rail Trail right from your backyard. Perfectly scaled at 600 sq ft, this modern eco-luxury cottage functions beautifully as an elite seasonal retreat, low-maintenance primary home, or lucrative rental. The intentional, zen-like design features passive solar orientation for natural warmth, cozy in-floor radiant heating, modern architectural blocks, and solid maple butcher block kitchen counters. Enjoy the rare luxury of total seclusion and wilderness access while remaining moments from Digby’s historic waterfront, shops, and dining. An unmatched investment in lifestyle, whether you seek a peaceful retirement oasis or an active coastal sanctuary.
