Perched above the Ospreys with views from the living room, kitchen, bedrooms, and outside patio of Nauset Beach and the Atlantic beyond, 12 Windswept Lane sits at the edge of the National Seashore. Located in the sought-after Countryside neighborhood and built in 1995, the 4,300-square-foot, 4-bedroom, 4.5-bath house is large enough to accommodate both family and friends. The open living space is bathed in light from ever-changing ocean and marsh views. A neighborhood path runs through the Orleans Conservation Trust and leads right to Nauset Beach. Around the corner, there is ORV North Beach private access exclusively for Orleans residents. Priscilla Beach is close by, lending itself to relaxing by the calm waters of Nauset Estuary, and is very popular for Kayaking and birdwatching in the sheltered marshes. This is beach living without the worry of storms and waves.
