About This Home

As of January 2025

Nestled in a prime outer Cape location, this stunning, fully turnkey year-round cottage is just a short stroll from a private association beach. Inside, the charm unfolds with warm southern pine floors and thoughtful details throughout. The living room invites you to unwind under vaulted ceilings, where you can spend a cozy evening. The kitchen is highlighted by wooden counters and open shelving, flowing into a sunlit dining room that overlooks the large backyard. The layout is ideal for family living and hosting guests, with the primary bedroom tucked away for privacy and direct access to the back porch. Outside, the expansive, fully-fenced backyard is perfect for nights by the fire pit or washing off a day of salt and sand in the outdoor shower. New roof in 2010; new windows in 2020. This home isn't just a seasonal getaway; it's a perfect year-round haven. With its successful vacation rental history, it also offers great potential as an investment property. Whether you're looking for a Cape Cod retreat or a rental opportunity, this property has everything you need to embrace the quintessential Cape Cod lifestyle. Don't miss the chance to make this turnkey Eastham gem your own! Some personal items are excluded. Seller will entertain buyer concessions.
