Sometimes just the smell of the salt water brings a whole new level of calm, now imagine having that every day! Here's your chance for the water views you've always dreamt of. Tucked along Palmer Street, this home puts you close to Rock Island Cove and Town River Bay, with the kind of tight-knit, coastal character that's hard to find this close to the city. Fire Station Beach and Snug Harbor Playground are just around the corner for a swim, a stroll or an afternoon outside and the local bus connects you straight to Quincy Center Station and the Red Line for an easy commute into Boston. Inside, a flexible floor plan lets you make the most of 4 bedrooms however suits your life. Freshly painted, refinished floors, a new heating system, and a finished basement are just a few of the improvements already done for you. Turn the backyard into your own outdoor sanctuary, plenty of space to host or string up a hammock and settle in with your next favorite book. Either way, we know you'll put it to good use. Enjoy serene coastal living with access to the 124-acre Rock Island Cove salt marsh, offering peaceful nature walks, birdwatching, and scenic views. Nearby cove waters bring opportunities for kayaking and fishing, Nut Island Park, Quincy Riverwalk and miles of waterfront. Just minutes to waterfront restaurants, community concerts, and local farmers markets plus a straight shot to the T when the city calls. Water views, great sunsets and an easy ride to Boston. This is coastal Quincy living at its best. Stop by one of our Open Houses!
