About this home
Experience the quintessential Northside lifestyle, a custom-built retreat where the charm of Cape Cod meets modern luxury. Perched on two acres of scenic grounds, this is a waterfront masterpiece designed to bring the outdoors in, offering shimmering water views from nearly every room. Whether you're hosting dinner or enjoying a quiet morning coffee, the interior feels airy and expansive thanks to soaring ceilings and an abundance of natural light. Two wood-burning fireplaces add a layer of warmth and character, while the sunroom serves as the ultimate front-row seat for the area's vibrant sunsets. Beyond the bedrooms and baths, the home is packed with thoughtful updates & high-tech conveniences. A 2-car garage, solar panels and an automatic generator provide peace of mind, while the central alarm & irrigation system ensure the property is as functional as it is beautiful. Step outside to your own private oasis—a sprawling, tranquil landscape that feels worlds away from the hustle, yet keeps you perfectly positioned near everything the Northside has to offer. It's a rare opportunity to own a home that so effortlessly balances secluded waterfront living with everyday accessibility.
West Barnstable, located between Barnstable Village and Sandwich, is a rural and historic Barnstable neighborhood with salt-marsh edges and pine-oak conservation land. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the West Barnstable Village area near Route 6A and the Old King’s Highway, where antique stops, farm stands, and low-key local services set an unhurried pace. Community pillars include the West Barnstable Table, the West Barnstable Train Station, and the Cape Cod Conservatory. Architecture leans to classic Cape and Colonial forms on larger lots, with stone walls and long driveways. Sandy Neck Beach and the Great Marsh shape daily rhythms with trails, dunes, and wide skies. Small roads and conservation parcels keep the landscape feeling open and grounded.
