Weekly Broker's Tour April 16

It's time for the weekly broker's tour, your inside track to the latest and greatest homes for sale in Harwich on the Cape.  Let's begin with new construction in a long-standing neighborhood one block from the sea.  Come inside 43 Ocean Avenue, Unit 3. 

The architecture says it's been here forever, but this free-standing condo is one of several brand new homes with gorgeous amenities and a super short stroll to the beach.

Look at this incredible floor tile. It's tiny and glass, perhaps 1/2". Doesn't it look like the ocean floor sparkling on a sunny day?

Ceilings are high and this contemporary chandelier tells you this seaside escape is serious about elegance.

Sunny patio offers privacy in this in-town location.  I mean it when I tell you you are steps to the shops of Harwich Port and steps to the beach. 

One last look at the neighborhood.  That's the sea at the end of the street.  43 Ocean avenue has two bedrooms and two bathrooms and is offered at $529,000.

OK, onto a 1955 ranch where the yard is king.  Welcome to 165 Belmont Road.

This 1,264 square foot classic has a spacious living room, eat in kitchen, two beds, two baths and a deck facing east and south. But agents were blown away by this half acre yard in a neighborhood of somewhat smaller lots.  It's treed and level.  It has a shell driveway and fencing for privacy.  This property at $299,165 is worth it just to get the lot.   

Next up is a cutie right from the pages of Pottery Barn.  Come inside 6 Robert Lane.

Isn't it stylish?  Cabbage roses  in the upholstery fabric aren't exactly of the moment but they seem so at home in this light and sensible cottage.  And don't you love that there is a window beside the fireplace in addition to the sprawling one behind the sofa?

The owners carried the soft creamy gold color into the enormous kitchen because the two rooms are open to one another.  I'm seeing lobsters cooking in a pot on the stove.  You too?

You can serve those lobsters on this elegant and sunny patio.

This home boasts 3 bedrooms and two bathrooms and is offered at $339,900.   The exterior is real cape styling, right down to the ocean blue in the siding. 

Let's travel to Wychmere Harbor now and tour a Victorian with fabulous harbor and ocean view.  Come inside 68 Snow Inn Road.

What a coastal classic.  Look at the heft of the trim.  And see the little arbor running up the addition at right?  That thing will explode with climbing roses all summer long.  Gorgeous.  

The homeowners opened up the first floor to create a light-filled floor plan.

Good move, don't you think?

But admit it.  You came for the view.  OK, let's get to it and go upstairs.  Prepare to be wowed.

All that water in the harbor will be dotted with white boats all summer long.  You can sit indoors or out on the deck and watch harbor"rush hour" every morning and evening.  Beyond the harbor, yup, that's the ocean.    Merkle Beach is at the end of the road, about eight houses away, but you can access the village by foot or wheel of any type too.  

Locations like this don't come cheap.  You'd better sit down, preferably in front of this view. This 4 bedroom, 3 bath home built in 1875 is listed at $1,145,000.  Start saving.

From vintage to brand new.  Let's travel inland to East Harwich where the golf courses are.  Let me take you inside brand spanking new 1 Crocker Rise.  

This model home in the new Hidden Cove development of 15 homes hits all the right notes with today's buyers.

Look at the size of the patio.  And the woods beyond.  This is for serious relaxation and space.  

---

My favorite part of this bathroom?  The duck hanging out in the shower.  Funny.

The prestigious Eastward Companies built this beautiful home.  

---

This is some bonus room.  Do you think you could find some use for this space?  

This 3 bedroom, 3 bath stunner with every amenity you could ask for is listed at $749,900.  Or, if you would like to buy a lot and build from scratch, lots in Hidden Cove begin at $250,000.

As always, if you would like to tour any of these homes yourself just let me know and I'll get you in.

Sounds Good.  Let's go!
