The Benjamin Coffin House was originally built circa 1772 and underwent a thoughtful and thorough renovation in the 1970s. Brimming with authentic antique charm, this wonderful gem features two bedrooms, 2 baths, beautiful living room with gas fireplace, renovated kitchen with new cabinetry and appliances, a cozy dining area, and a roof walk with harbor views. The new mahogany deck and gardens provide an intimate and private seating and dining sanctuary surrounded by fruit trees, mature hedges and a wood fence. Beautiful wide plank pine flooring, historic wood molding, and antique doors add to the charm of this wonderfully appealing and welcoming home. HDC approved plans for an addition of a first floor master bedroom suite.
