Incredible oceanfront cottage overlooking Block Island Sound. This property is one of the very few cottages that are located in the "front row" at Roy Carpenter Beach. Escape to your own coastal haven with this delightful seasonal beach cottage nestled in the heart of Matunuck. This gated community is located just steps away from the stunning shoreline, offering beachside living on a private beach . You can enjoy endless summer days with sand between your toes and breathtaking ocean views. Relax and unwind on the front deck, ideal for summer barbecues, morning coffee, or simply enjoy the ocean breeze and catch the beautiful sunsets. Enjoy nearby shops, restaurants, and entertainment, including the iconic Theatre by the Sea and Ocean Mist. This Matunuck gem is a rare find and won’t last long. If you’re seeking the ultimate beach lifestyle, this cottage is your opportunity to own a piece of coastal paradise. Cottage is being sold "as is." Note: As of October 1, 2025, all cottages at Roy Carpenter Beach are being converted from land leases to cooperative ownership. This will require each owner to purchase their pro rata share of the property at a cost of approx $47,000.
