Remember this tour and this slideshow of historical houses in the Incorporated Village? Both featured the wonderful domed towers and windows of this Victorian (1887) shingle-style beach cottage. It's been on the market as a rental for a while and is now for sale. If I had a yen for an older house I'd seriously consider this one. It's architecturally charming, the views to the Bay are lovely and I could fulfill all my Rapunzel fantasies from the turret.
4 Bedroom Guesthouse
The 1.6 acre property features a guesthouse and a barn plus all the desired amenities (pool, tennis court, beach rights). I can vouch for the roof being new, as I watched the shingles being stapled not so long ago, and I could hear the thwack of balls last summer so the tennis court is probably in good shape but there are no pictures of the pool, and all I know about the interior is what I can see on the agent's website and that doesn't include any shots of the kitchen. Red Flags!
*The list price is very fair for the size of the house and the area but the taxes might make you choke on your breakfast cereal... so put down your spoon before you click here (or here) for more details.

She is a beauty. Oooooh... Those gothic arch paned windows.
:( I can't see it. It sounds really cute, though!
Refresh the page and try again - I just changed the link. Let me know if it's still misbehaving!
Love it - I love that style and those neat windows.
OMG, those taxes are steep. Beautiful house, though. I could happily live in the guesthouse.
I just need a room in a tower - one in the guest house will do....
The view sells it. Gorgeous!
