Offered as-is, this three-bedroom, two-bath home is an exceptional opportunity in a prime Lower Cape setting—anchored within the coveted triangle of Harwich Port, Chatham, and Brewster. Major work is already completed and permitted, including new siding, exterior paint, structural foundation improvements, a new gravel driveway, and a back patio. Inside, the open-concept floor plan is filled with natural light, with an oversized vaulted entryway and two first-floor bedrooms—one with sliders to the backyard. The kitchen plan includes an island and a sink beneath a window overlooking the expansive, cleared yard, where abundant sunlight makes it ideal for gardens or a future pool and patio. Upstairs, the penthouse-style primary suite offers privacy, while the basement provides extra square footage for expansion. Set on 1.2 acres near conservation land and walking trails, this is a standout platform for investors, builders, or anyone looking to add equity and craft a modern coastal retreat.
