About This Home

As of January 2015

Rare opportunity to own a three-bedroom, two bath home with deeded rights to a private, sandy Pleasant Bay beach including a mooring. This solid home has been newly painted, bedrooms are newly carpeted, exterior shingles power washed, antique pine floors in living room have been uncovered and finished. The house is full of unique built-ins. Once home to the gardener for the Winslow estate, the yard has old established rhododendrons, holly tree, towering firs, hydrangea, rose bushes and more. A moss-covered, walled garden surrounds the rear patio. Deeded rights are also included for a private fresh water pond, perfect for kayaking. This is a quintessential Pleasant Bay area home on an exclusive South Orleans road, just waiting to be filled with summer memories. House is much larger than it appears from the road.
