Sitting up on a rise looking out over the water, this handsome Federal period cape has passed almost 2 centuries of Atlantic winds and weather but still sits strong. .. . with straight lines and chimneys that look like they have another couple of centuries in them. So many beautiful views from this solid old home. .. and , In addition, there is a 3-story barn with full foundation, offering lots of space for boats, cars, tools, equipment , etc. , and more lovely views. The 3.5 acres , sloping down to the shore, has some mature plantings giving such nice gifts in the spring, summer and fall. A new mooring awaits you just offshore. Some recent updates : new entryway and mudroom, 2 new bathrooms - new master bath and primary bath, master bedroom has a new walk -in closet, the fine old wood floors on the first floor have been sanded and beautifully refinished , also impressive insulation, painting . .. and more. The basement of this house is not your typical old rock foundation but poured concrete was done in maybe the 60's which gives fortress-like support to this fine old structure. The stonework supporting the 2 massive chimneys is a sight to behold. Altogether a truly fine property and . .. there aren't many left like this. one. Come see this gem and maybe you'll be there in time for the flowering of the magnolia !!--
