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.
$600,000
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!
