Folly Cove is an extraordinary place. Known for its spectacular sunsets, walking paths to Dogtown and a natural cove with views to the open ocean, coastal NH and beyond, it has long been home to writers and artists.

The adorable attached apartment has in-unit laundry, 1 bed, 1 full bath, its own private deck. An oversized 1 car granite garage has space for workshop.
