Homes on the Cape are, of course, available to buy year-round, but if you snag 8 Burgess Street in Falmouth now, there’s still time to squeeze a few more beach weekends into summer 2023.

A timeless treasure along the picturesque edge of Snug Harbor in West Falmouth – 8 Burgess Street is where history, charm, and waterfront living intertwine. The Swift lots, laid out in 1881 by Meltiah Gifford, offer a glimpse into a bygone era that still resonates today having been cherished by generations of sun-chasers.

As you step onto the property, it’s as if time stands still. The classic Queen Anne shingle style architecture is a testament to the turn of the century, offering both vintage elegance and cozy comfort. It also features a prized deep water dock, a true gem in West Falmouth Harbor, beckoning boating enthusiasts.

Made for casual summer living, the home’s expansive porches invite you to unwind and savor the ocean breeze, while the rolling lawn leads you to the tranquil water’s edge. Inside, five bedrooms provide space for family and friends. From the kitchen with its practical pantry and mudroom area to the inviting dining room, living room, and the restful porch, the first floor seamlessly merges indoor and outdoor living.

Whether you’re within its walls or gazing out from the shore, you’re treated to the daily masterpiece of the Cape Cod sunset from the perfect vantage point.

The sale of the home, on the market for $2,995,000, is represented by Kerrie Marzot of Sotheby’s International Realty – Cape Cod – Falmouth Brokerage, 508-274-2236.
