Listing broker remarks

From the road, you would never know what is waiting out back. Tucked privately toward the rear of the lot is the kind of backyard where Cape Cod summer memories are made: a large saltwater in-ground pool, hydrangeas in bloom, plenty of lawn, and just enough of a basketball court for spirited games between swims. This is the house that becomes the gathering place—the one where everyone arrives with towels over their shoulders, the grill is going, music drifts across the yard and children and grandchildren beg for just one more swim before dinner. There is room for a crowd, yet the setting feels wonderfully sheltered and private. Loved by one family for many years, this sunny East Dennis ranch was designed for exactly that kind of life. With 1,919 square feet of interior living space, plus a 352-square-foot screened porch/sunroom, its unusual floor plan provides room to be together without requiring everyone to be in the same place. The fireplaced family room opens to the porch and backyard, creating a natural path between the house and the pool. The cheerful eat-in kitchen includes a sunny breakfast nook overlooking the yard, along with a pantry and conveniently placed laundryFrom the road, you would never know what awaits out back: a private retreat with a large saltwater in-ground pool, hydrangeas, lawn and space for basketball between swims.
