This stately waterfront home sits at the end of a private cul-de-sac on a secluded 1.89 acre wooded lot with stunning views of Little Pleasant Bay. The homeowners association privileges include: tennis, pickle ball, bocci, a landing on Pilgrim Lake, and a shared deep-water DOCK for boating access to Pleasant Bay and the Atlantic. Entering the central hall from the large covered entry porch reveals an excellent view of the bay through the living room's bank of windows. The breakfast table, adjoining the generous size kitchen, also offers water views, while the adjacent great room features a formal dinning area, radiant heated floors, a large fireplace, and French doors leading to a spacious deck with spectacular views. The home boasts two primary bedrooms with water views on both the first and second floors, the latter en-suite with walk-in closet. The upper floor has two more bedrooms, a large office, an exercise room, and a laundry room. The partially finished lower level has a second fireplace, a sleep-in bonus room, and a workshop. This is truly a distinctive Cape Cod retreat, situated in a special setting and lovingly cared for by these original owners.
