Listing broker remarks

Beyond the Chatham Lighthouse, with over an acre on Morris Island, a five-bedroom estate of more than 5,000 square feet keeps its own quiet company. Deeded beach rights through the Quitnesset Association put the sand a short stroll away, while Main Street waits minutes behind you. A grand staircase rising from the foyer gives arrival a true sense of occasion. At the heart of the home, a vaulted living room gathers light through walls of windows, framing an expansive deck and serene, private grounds with room for a pool. To the left, a private wing pairs the primary suite with a dedicated office. Formal dining flows to a spacious kitchen with a large island, bar seating, and a breakfast nook with sliders to the yard, while a sunroom invites the seasons in. Upstairs, four generous, light-filled bedrooms, several en suite, welcome family and guests across generations. Above the two-car garage, a sprawling recreation room is poised to become a guest suite. A mudroom, first-floor laundry, and outdoor shower make easy work of long beach days. Morning on the sand, evening on Main Street, and every hour between on your own acre. A rare and prestigious Chatham estate, built for gathering.— Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices Robert Paul Properties
