Memorable evening last week at the Woods Hole Film Festival! The documentary was about Sam Bush, a revered “newgrass” musician among those in the know. Great movie, and at the end, Sam Bush himself came bounding down the aisle for Q and A with the knowledgeable and wildly enthusiastic audience. Lots of love, and what the fest does best.
(I heard he jammed with the Old Silver Band at the after-party, and those who were there say it was “epochal”.)
There are some eye-popping, really expensive homes that have recently come on the market, and I’m including my top picks here.
But you know I like to address all price ranges, so from lowest to highest price range, here we go.
#21604707
49 Dove Hill Road, Falmouth
$550,000
There’s not much for sale currently in North/West Falmouth in the $500’s, a very popular price range. This one fits the bill. It’s a spacious (2,352 s.f.) Colonial with 3 bedrooms, 3 baths, and lots of upgrades on a nice side street. The unique feature is a main bedroom suite over the garage, which would work really well for some people and not at all for others.
#21604579
14 Hidden Village Road, Falmouth
$599,000
Also in West Falmouth, this is a good house that gets most of the job done. The first floor has been redone because of a broken water pipe last year. The limitations for some buyers are no first-floor bedroom suite and no garage, but because it’s on a half acre, both of these might be possible. The question is setbacks from a vernal pool and the septic system. Under the circumstances, the asking price seems a bit high.
This house has common ownership to five dappled acres right behind the house and a path to a simply beautiful, almost 500-foot-long sandy beach on Ashumet Pond. The house is just right at 1,778 s.f., and it does have a first-floor bedroom suite and an attached garage. But really, the best thing about it is that spectacular pond. I was there last week on a hot Saturday, and there were only two people on the beach and no one boating on the pond. A secluded, secret spot!
Lots of people raised their flag on the July 4th. These people brought a crane to their driveway, and hoisted a flag that made an emphatic, awesome statement! Kudos to these homeowners on Shore Rd in Pocasset.
Annual rite of summer, getting the beach sticker.
Heavy security this morning at The Island Queen dock on Falmouth Heights Rd. Wonder what it was about…
