About this home
Recently remodeled and set in a wooded Harwich setting, this home offers a bright, open feel with fresh finishes throughout. The updated kitchen features white cabinetry, granite countertops, stainless steel appliances and a breakfast bar, flowing into the living area with its brick fireplace, vaulted ceiling and ladder-accessed loft nook for tucked-away storage or display. Architectural hardwood floors and fresh paint create a clean, cohesive look through the main living spaces and bedrooms. The updated full bath features a modern vanity and tiled tub/shower. Outside, the patio and firepit create an inviting spot to enjoy the natural surroundings. A bright, refreshed laundry area adds everyday convenience, while the approximately 15,600-square-foot lot offers room to spread out. The thoughtful renovation, inviting interior and wooded setting make this a distinctive Harwich offering.
Lower Cape, located between Harwich Port and Chatham, is a coastal and village-centered Harwich neighborhood with salt-marsh inlets and bike-trail access. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Route 28 corridor near Harwich Port’s Main Street, where galleries, independent shops, and sidewalk cafés set a relaxed, walkable rhythm. Architecture leans toward classic Cape cottages, shingled beach houses, and low-slung ranches tucked behind pitch pines. Red River Beach and Bank Street Beach frame daily life with wide sand and calm water views. The Cape Cod Rail Trail threads nearby for car-free rides toward Nickerson State Park. Community touchstones include the Cape Cod Lavender Farm, the Cape Cod Baseball League’s Harwich Mariners at Whitehouse Field, and the Cape Cod Theatre Company/Harwich Junior Theatre.
