  • Painted a crisp white, with seafoam green painted entrance, roof, railings and shutters and black accents. 
  • Contains multiple rectangular windows with plastic panes as well as circular windows with plastic panes.
  • Each floor has black ladders leading to the upper floor.  

Most importantly, this is a working Lighthouse!  Includes   Lantern room with glass Lantern and a flashing lightbulb. 

The Keeper's Quarters:

  • A one-room building painted a deep red, with blue and black accents around windows and door frame.  The roof is black. 
  • 2 front rectangular windows with plastic panes.

The Perimeter features:

  • A real stone wall around the perimeter of the Light Station (Lighthouse and Keeper's Quarters).
  • Stone "beach" with textured sand in front of Keeper's Quarters.
  • Flexible white picket fencing around the Keeper's Quarters & Lighthouse. 
  • A brown "dirt" walkway from Keeper's Quarters to Lighthouse. 

This item is truly a work of art!  Give a very special child this wonderful, handcrafted toy as a gift or surprise.
