The 9,553 square foot property sits on a 17.5 acre parcel bordering Red Creek Harbor. This five-bedroom home offers some of the most spectacular views on Cape Cod.
"It sits on a point surrounded by water on three sides," said Paul Grover, listing agent for Robert Paul Properties, a Berkshire Hathaway home improvement company." It is located in Cataumet, which really is a waterfront area of the town of Bourne. It has this old Cape Cod feel to it, but what makes it really unusual is that it's a modern house in an established area."
The main house was built in 2009 and designed by award-winning architects Doreve Nicholaeff.
The property was originally sold last September for $15.995 million, but was taken off the market earlier this year before reappearing at its current price.
"The seller has made some changes over the years; but it was a quality building when it was built," Grover said." So there hasn't really been a need for renovation because it's designed to be timeless."
Designed for entertaining, the three-storey home has a living room surrounded by a wall of windows offering spectacular views of the pool and waterfront setting.
The two-storey kitchen features bespoke cabinetry, high-end appliances, butler's pantry and a built-in breakfast bench overlooking the harbour.
The spacious home also features double height ceilings, two fireplaces, and many areas to enjoy the beautiful views.
Upstairs, the main suite has a sitting area, a glass wall leading to a wrap-around terrace, two walk-in wardrobes and an en-suite bathroom with a soaking tub and water feature.
If you want to better appreciate the surrounding views, head upstairs to the top floor viewing deck/recreation room, which has a convenient wet bar.
Other facilities include a tennis court, indoor and outdoor swimming pools, gym, sauna, steam room and changing rooms.
The property has a three bedroom guesthouse, tennis courts and a deep water marina for boats to dock.
"This 17.5 acre site is almost unheard of, but what makes it special is that it is only 10 minutes from the Bourne Bridge and you can be in Buzzards Bay in just a few minutes," notes Grover." It is also possible to take the ferry to Martha's Vineyard and Nantucket. When you get here, though, you feel like you're a world away from everything."
