Listing broker remarks

This rare opportunity in South Sandwich features a 1995 Cape-style home on 1.89 level acres with dual access from South Sandwich Rd and Cotuit Rd. The substantial lot offers unmatched potential for a pool, tennis court, or accessory dwelling unit (ADU), backed by a 5-bedroom septic system ready for possible expansion. Inside, enjoy a first-floor primary suite with an ensuite bath and new Whirlpool washer and dryer. The living room serves as a bright centerpiece with its gas fireplace and soaring cathedral ceilings. Upstairs holds the second bedroom alongside an open loft (3rd bedroom) filled with natural light from two skylights. Key updates completed within the past year offer peace of mind: Gas furnace, Rinnai tankless water heater, Bosch dishwasher, and Whirlpool refrigerator. Central AC, and a built-in generator ensures uninterrupted power when the weather turns, and the 2-car garage is EV-ready with 50-amp service. Outside, a great 22x17 deck, perfect for large gatherings.— William Raveis R.E. & Home Services
