What's special

Water front home

A special water front home in the heart of Wellfleet Village. Built in 1858 and owned by only a small number of families since. This antique has been thoughtfully updated while leaving many original details throughout. The kitchen and living spaces are the heart of the home with floor to ceiling windows and doors allowing the sunlight to pour in. Decks span both floors of the house and take in the water from end to end. Behind them, the yard opens up, giving the property room and privacy that village lots rarely offer. Five bedrooms leave real space for extended family and visitors, and a detached studio out back adds a spot for overflow guests or creative work. Everything Wellfleet has to offer is at your fingertips. Main Street, the galleries, restaurants, Town Pier, and Mayo Beach. Antiques of this caliber, in this position, seldom come to market in Wellfleet.
