This unparalleled waterfront estate is a piece of Cape Cod history. Once the summer getaway of a wealthy Boston family, it consists of a 12-bedroom residence, a pool house, a guesthouse, a carriage house, native flora threaded with trails, private shoreline, colorful landscaping, a pool and spa, a tennis court, and views of the Wings Neck Lighthouse and the waters of Buzzard’s Bay. The iconic Shingle-style main residence has been painstakingly rejuvenated, with particular attention paid to preserving the home’s irreplaceable vintage style. A sense of enduring grandeur is apparent in deeply hued wide-plank hardwoods, French doors admitting glorious natural light, and classical moldings, millwork, and trim. The kitchen, baths, windows, fixtures, and mechanical systems have been thoughtfully updated. The grounds are lush with grass, flowering plants, and mature trees. Paths link each residence and lead to a tennis court with a viewing pavilion. Careful planning has rendered the estate self-sufficient, with three wells, underground propane tanks, and an estate-wide backup generator. The Wings Neck Trust community offers 2 beaches, a dock, a sailing club, and acres of conservation land.
