2 Bedroom House in Adamsville, Westport
This cozy yet spectacular waterfront beach Cottage abuts and overlooks “the Let” – Bay of Westport River. The secluded house is built on a barrier beach and is surrounded by wooded preservation lands inside Horseneck Beach State Reservation, offering the freedom of roaming yet with maximum privacy.
