About this home

Bucolic living at its finest and close to Sandwich center this stunning antique home, built in 1790, is set on 2.7 acres of park-like grounds. With 4 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms, much of the home has been updated for modern living and yet many of the original details have been preserved. Other highlights include two classic wood-burning fireplaces, a country-kitchen with Dutch door, a large 3-season room, a barn/garage that can fit 2 cars, and a backup generator that can power the entire house. Surrounded by mature hedges and lush gardens, this property is a nature lover's dream. The property is also adjacent to cranberry bogs and numerous walking trails. Historians take note, author Thornton Burgess used to work the land when it was a farm and is where he got much of his inspiration to write his books. Showings by appointment.
