Waterview Homes, Part 1

by

#21500920
$579,900

 

 

Wow, talk about views! This small (1,200 sf, 3 bedrooms, 2 baths) ranch is ON Little Pond, with unobstructed views not only up and down the pond, but across it to Vineyard Sound. With its south and west orientation, the light in the house is irresistible. And those sunsets – man, they don’t disappoint! In addition, there’s now an oyster farm at the town end of the pond. I lived on Little Pond for many years, and there were few pleasures as delightful as paddling the pond, seeing what there was to see.

 

This house is pleasant, and in good shape, but an energetic buyer with some vision could make it dramatic. If the buyer has a mortgage, flood insurance will be required. Currently, it’s about $3,500 a year, not horrible. The bonus? Sewer connection has been approved, and will be happening in a couple of years. The cost to the new owner will be about $500 a year for 20 years. Not a high price to pay for a great benefit.

This one kind of stole my heart. A sweet ranch, in wonderful condition, with generous open living, dining, and kitchen spaces, and with a cathedral ceiling in the living room. There’s wonderful indoor space that opens through two sets of triple sliders to a large mahogany deck, small yard, and Fresh River right outside your door. Put in your kayak, or sit on the deck and be delighted with the antics of the birds and ducks. And if you want the beach, Surf Drive is only 2/10 of a mile away. This is the epitome of “beach house”! A little pricey, but I’d encourage a lower offer.

This has been on for a while, and I don’t know why I haven’t shown it before. I was very taken with it when I showed it yesterday. The setting is among tall pines, and it’s directly on Mares Pond. The kayak was still at the shoreline, waiting to take some lucky person fishing. The house is unconventional, and as welcoming as any home I’ve ever seen. Every room has direct views of the pond. The living room, dining room, and kitchen are open to one another, so there’s light, views, and cross ventilation throughout. The neighborhood is diverse, with some smaller homes. Some buyers might not like that. But once you arrive, this house is in a world of its own. Captivating!

Waterview Condos, Part 2

The Boatyard is directly on Falmouth Harbor, so the vibe is much buzzier than either Treetops or Falmouthport. Lots of boats going in and out, including The Island Queen, and only a few minutes to downtown or Falmouth Heights Beach. This is an efficient full-time home, or a good part-time home, with just enough space (1,768 sf, 2 bedrooms, 2 baths) for everything you need, but not any extra. The waterview in this unit is narrow, between buildings, and the second bedroom is in the lower level. Higher price, downtown, less square footage, and lesser view. Trade-offs! These units also are a flight of stairs up from the garage.

We were the first ones to see this young condo. It came on the market in the morning, and we saw it just hours later. One block from Falmouth Heights Beach, and only 13 years young, the floor plan (1,886 sf, 3 bedrooms, 3 baths) and finishes will appeal to those who want something newer. Like The Boatyard, these units have a central location that is very appealing. Without a first-floor main bedroom suite, however, and with a flight of stairs to enter, this unit will probably not appeal to the empty-nester coddling knees.

182 Bayfront Way, Unit 31-3, East Falmouth
$449,000

 

Falmouthport was built in the 1970’s and is a good-sized complex, with 210 units. The surroundings are woodsy, and there’s a lovely salt water inlet that goes out to the ocean – and also a pool, tennis courts, and a clubhouse. This particular unit is on three levels, all with wide water views. It’s been tastefully renovated, and so will be a pleasure for a new owner to move into. With 1,343 sf (which does not include the finished lower level), the asking price of $449,000 is just about right for a waterfront unit. Condo fees are reasonable and stable here; for this unit, it’s $431 a month. But the buyer has to be okay with not having a garage, as there are no garages in Falmouthport.

$535,000

24 Landfall, Unit 34, Quissett (Falmouth)
$539,000

Treetops is a late 1970’s condo complex just off Woods Hole Road. Sited at the top of Oyster Pond, and facing south down the length of the pond to Vineyard Sound, or west across the pond, the views are particularly lovely. The units are three floors, and all have sliders or large windows showcasing these views.

With only 62 units in total, this is an intimate neighborhood, but it still offers the pool, clubhouse, and tennis courts that are desired by many condo owners. In addition, Treetops has a private beach on Vineyard Sound, and although it’s not on the property, it’s only about a 10-minute walk, 5-minute bike ride, or 2-minute drive.

During the height of the market, Treetops units were sought after, and sold for more than the current prices. With the downturn and the passing of time (so that original units began to look dated); and with a new small private wind turbine across the street at the Woods Hole Research Center, values declined a bit. Some homes still sell in the $600’s, but the two I’m featuring today are in the low 500’s, a very good value. These two units show well, are immaculate, well-maintained, and even though not spiffily HGTV-worthy, are neutral and easy to move into as is. But they are on three levels, too much for some potential Buyers.

fireworksSo you’d think that the real estate market would take a little vacation, wouldn’t you? And maybe it did, for a few weeks. But the most extraordinary thing is, the market’s hot!

Once the road crews got through the first couple of storms this winter, they got the routine down, and our roads and even sidewalks were navigable. I stayed home only two days during the entire snow blitz, and my clients were tooling around with me, making offers.

But so were everyone else’s clients, it seems! I really didn’t expect that every house my buyers made offers on would have other offers as well. Every time I showed a house, there were other showings just before or after mine, on a Monday afternoon at 4:30 or a Thursday morning at 10:00. I was in disbelief. What, there are other buyers out there, during the week, during or just after another snowstorm? But this happened all winter.

So – you’re hearing it here first – our market turned from a Buyer’s to a Seller’s during our recent winter of weather to remember. Totally unpredictable!
