Listing broker remarks

This elegant Cape-style residence offers a refined retreat on a sprawling, wooded lot near Osterville Village and Dowses Beach. Defined by bright, voluminous spaces, the home features a stately pillared portico, stone walkways, and classic shingle siding. Inside, the center hall layout leads to a grand living room with a two-story wall of windows and a Palladian arch. This flows into the dining room and a kitchen equipped with granite countertops, a cooktop island, and a sunny breakfast nook. The adjacent family room features custom built-ins and a brick fireplace. The first-flow primary suite serves as a sanctuary with a walk-in closet and en suite bathroom. Upstairs, a mezzanine gallery overlooks the living area, leading to two spacious guest bedrooms. Outside, an expansive rear deck with a vine-covered pergola overlooks the private lawn and an ornamental pond, creating the perfect setting for relaxation. Located minutes from everything Osterville has to offer!— Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices Robert Paul Properties
