About this home
Rare opportunity - three separate parcels being sold together - on one of the most beloved scenic roads in the Historic Village of Sandwich is on the market for the first time in over 100 years. The historic farmhouse built approximately 1756 and one of the oldest homes - the three story barn built approximately 1894 for cranberry sorting and an undevelopable waterfront lot on Shawme Pond to protect the stunning views. The house features three bedrooms, two baths, exposed wood beams, claw foot tub, front porch overlooking the pond. The barn has potential to be converted to a single family home or build an additional new house - also with beautiful views. Grove Street is one of the most loved scenic roads in town and offers easy proximity to restaurants, shopping, museums, library, Boardwalk, Canal, beach and seasonal festivities.
Upper Cape, located between Buzzards Bay and Cape Cod Bay, is a coastal and village-centered Falmouth neighborhood with saltwater inlets and piney conservation land. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around Main Street in Woods Hole, where ferry docks, marine labs, and compact storefronts set a working-harbor rhythm. The Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution and the Woods Hole Science Aquarium act as cultural anchors, with The Knob adding a quiet shoreline counterpoint. Architecture leans toward shingled Cape cottages and weathered harbor-side buildings, with bikeable lanes linking beaches and ponds. Days track tides, ferry schedules, and the Shining Sea Bikeway’s steady flow. Small marinas and pocket parks keep the landscape open and maritime.

Step back in time and picture a Cape style home with covered front porch for relaxing on lazy afternoons, a three story carriage house, rolling lawn and water views of the wildlife activity on Shawme Pond. This property exists - in the heart of Historic Sandwich Village - and is on the market for the first time in over a hundred years. The house captures the period with exposed hand hewn beams, wide pine flooring, claw foot tub. The kitchen has been modified to open to the dining area for today's lifestyle. The living room faces the water - the dining room could function as a first floor bedroom - full bath - bonus room - two bedrooms and full bath upstairs. Old stone foundations can be found along the paths as well as a hitching post from days gone by. Three lots are being sold as a package - 24 Grove Street (house), 24A Grove Street (c. 1880 barn) and 23 Grove Street (unbuildable waterfront lot to protect unobstructed views). So much potential exists here with the ability to convert the carriage house or add another structure. Envision the possibilities on one of the most beloved scenic roads in Sandwich - near museums, shopping, restaurants, library and more.
