Taken from the south property line, it shows the Beach road looking east on the right and 
moves west as you look left. Plenty of room for an Accessory structure, Greenhouse and 
large garden, on the back third of The 300' lot. Having such a large lot is a rare feature for

The sandy area at the end of the walkway is large enough to construct an "Accessory Residence". which is listed as a potential Permitted Use the new C-5, Historic Character Commercial zoning district
