RIDING LIGHTS, named for the navigation lights used to illuminate anchored vessels at night, is a rare waterfront offering in North Truro. This iconic 6-bedroom, 4.5-bath home, originally built in the 1920s and thoughtfully expanded over the years, blends historic character with an extraordinary coastal setting. Its distinctive stucco exterior and conical architectural design captured the attention of renowned artist Edward Hopper, who painted the home in the 1930s. The heavily vegetated dune face provides natural stability while enhancing privacy, and a private walkway leads to a pristine sandy beach. Enjoy sweeping views of Provincetown, Cape Cod Bay, the Sagamore Bridge, and the mainland beyond. A truly exceptional legacy property, RIDING LIGHTS offers the rare opportunity to own an important piece of Truro history and create cherished memories for generations to come

Outer Cape, located between Cape Cod Bay and the Atlantic Ocean, is a coastal and conservation-minded Eastham neighborhood with dune-backed beaches and pine-scented trails. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Orleans–Eastham Rotary at US-6 and MA-6A, where roadside seafood shacks, bike-rental counters, and beach-day essentials set a salt-air tempo. Low-slung Cape cottages and shingled homes sit behind scrub oak, with long driveways and dark-sky nights. The Cape Cod National Seashore frames daily rhythms with Nauset Light Beach and Coast Guard Beach. The Cape Cod Rail Trail threads through town for car-free rides to ponds and bay flats. The Eastham Windmill and the Three Sisters Lighthouses keep local history in view.
