Before the words “amazing potential” frighten off anyone, 99 Uncle Albert’s Road in Chatham is a perfectly lovely property as is. Encompassing a main house built in 2004 and a separate barn with a garage and workshop space, the 1.44 acre parcel is ready to become an indelible part of your summertime memories.

In its former incarnation, the land was used as the working farm of the legendary Chatham Bars Inn. Held by the same family for 70 years, the property is ready for its next life — as is or expanded to accommodate a second home or a swimming pool. Let your imagination run wild along this stretch of Oyster Pond and the Oyster River.

Abundant windows and an expansive wraparound porch gaze out over tranquil water views. Grab your morning beverage and spend a few choice hours watching boats and wildlife glide in and out of view. Seeking your own time on the water? Nantucket Sound is easily accessible via the river.

The two-bed, 2.5-bath main house includes a primary suite on the open concept main level, a bedroom and sitting room upstairs, and a finished lower-level with a sunny, walk-out recreation room.

The property is on the market for $9,995,000. The sale is represented by Rick Smith of Gibson Sotheby’s International Realty, 508-237-0945.
