Experience the best of Cape Porpoise from this beautifully designed 4-bedroom shingle-style home, privately sited on .55 acres just a short stroll from the village. Walk or bike for coffee, groceries and prepared foods, browse a local gallery, enjoy acclaimed restaurants, or continue to Cape Porpoise Harbor--an authentic working waterfront with memorable views, fresh seafood and dining from refined to picnic-table casual.

Thoughtful architecture and exceptional millwork distinguish this custom home. Flared rooflines, a substantial stone chimney, arched covered entry and built-in porch seating create a timeless exterior. Inside, cathedral wood ceilings bring volume and warmth to the living and dining areas, while an impressive stone wood-burning fireplace anchors the living room.

The library/office features painted box beams with natural fir beadboard ceiling, built-in bookcases beneath a wall of casement windows and a gas fireplace. An adjoining full bath with shower has direct and separate hall access, allowing it to also serve as the first-floor powder room.

The warm wood kitchen offers granite countertops, a large gathering island, pantry and walk-in butler's pantry with workspace. A window-wrapped breakfast nook invites casual meals and morning coffee. Built-in bench seating enhances the entry, mudroom and bedrooms.

The primary suite features a private balcony, dual closets, double vanity, soaking tub and separate shower. Mature trees create a private setting with a cobblestone fire pit, crushed-shell dining terrace, rear deck and welcoming front porch. Central A/C, monitored alarm, irrigation, custom closets, full basement and attached two-car garage add convenience.

An adjoining .51-acre buildable lot is also available, offering possibilities for another home or guest cottage, pool, tennis court, or added privacy. Goose Rocks Beach, Dock Square, marinas and golf are just minutes away.
