Step back in time as you wind your way home along old Cape Cod roads, surrounded by ponds, marsh, and the quiet natural beauty of Eastham, to this rare marsh front Cape set above one of the Outer Cape's most captivating landscapes. Sweeping views toward Cape Cod Bay, shifting light across the marsh grasses, tidal movement through the natural channel, and wide coastal sky create a setting that feels peaceful, private, and unforgettable. Enjoy morning coffee, sunset drinks, and stargazing from the wraparound deck, with First Encounter Beach and the Cape Cod National Seashore nearby. Inside, light-filled spaces keep the landscape present in every season, with water views from every room. A first-floor bedroom opens directly to the deck, while the second-floor primary captures elevated marsh and bay views. Thoughtfully maintained and carefully updated over time, the home offers comfort, privacy, and a natural low-maintenance landscape that blends with its surroundings. Old Cape Cod at its best: salt air, open sky, changing tides, protected natural beauty, and a rare connection to nature. Large walk-out basement not counted in square footage. New Price-great weekend getaway or rental.
