Cool ocean breezes and the sound of the waves, a short walk from North Beach. This is summer at the coast without the work: a small seasonal cottage at Blue Spruce you open in spring, use all season, and lock up without a second thought. It's a true cottage, one bedroom and one bath, completely rebuilt in 1992, so it lives newer and tighter than its age suggests. Small and simple in the best way. The big wood deck with its awning is your second room, good for morning coffee and dinner after a day on the sand. It's a condo association, so a low annual fee takes care of the landscaping, water, and sewer. Nothing to fuss over. Seasonal occupancy runs April 15 to October 15, exactly when you want to be at the beach anyway. A simple place near the water for the summers you keep meaning to claim. Short walk to the sand at the quieter, more local end of Hampton Beach. Being sold furnished minus personal items.
