Beautiful setting: waterfront property with 160 feet of frontage on John's Pond, . Quiet street. Great spot to build either a vacation home or a primary home. A new construction pond side home nearby down the street sold last year for $2.7 million. Subject property previously held a cottage on it in 1950s and 1960s, but old structure was demolished 50+ years ago. According to the town website, "Johns Pond is a scenic freshwater lake...Covering approximately 317 acres, it is one of the largest ponds in the area and a popular spot for outdoor recreation. The pond features clear waters and a maximum depth of around 65 feet, making it ideal for swimming, boating, fishing, and kayaking.The surrounding landscape includes residential neighborhoods, conservation land, and wooded areas, giving the pond a peaceful, natural atmosphere. A public beach and boat ramp on the eastern shore offer easy access for visitors. Fishing enthusiasts frequent Johns Pond for species like largemouth bass, pickerel, perch, and sunfish.
Upper Cape, located between Buzzards Bay and Cape Cod Bay, is a coastal and village-centered Falmouth neighborhood with saltwater inlets and piney conservation land. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around Main Street in Woods Hole, where ferry docks, marine labs, and compact storefronts set a working-harbor rhythm. The Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution and the Woods Hole Science Aquarium act as cultural anchors, with The Knob adding a quiet shoreline counterpoint. Architecture leans toward shingled Cape cottages and weathered harbor-side buildings, with bikeable lanes linking beaches and ponds. Days track tides, ferry schedules, and the Shining Sea Bikeway’s steady flow. Small marinas and pocket parks keep the landscape open and maritime.
