Nadine’s Nuggets, Part 2

March 20, 2017 by Nadine

Here are some pricier homes that are in highly sought-after neighborhoods:

#21701234
3 Indiana Avenue, Falmouth
$899,000

This house is so appealing, but look closely at the pictures. There’s nothing but the essential furniture in each room. This is the perfect example of why staging is so successful. There’s nothing to distract the eye from the space and how it functions.

I find that sellers are sometimes reluctant to let me help them refresh their home; and they even find it difficult to “pre-pack”, which can make a huge positive difference in how their home shows. My logic is that they’re going to be moving anyway, so pack the nonessentials, and free the spirit of the space. See what I mean – 3 Indiana Avenue is small (3 bedrooms, 2 baths, and only 1,248 s.f.). But it sings!

#21700733
31 Indian Ridge Road, Falmouth
$1,200,000

This home is only 2 bedrooms, and it needs everything, but it IS in Saconesset. It will be interesting to see if the location can overcome the challenges.

#21610191
59 Menauhant Road, Falmouth
$1,300,000

This one is a little scary. It’s on the water, almost literally, at Bristol Beach on the Maravista-Falmouth Heights line. There’s a concrete revetment to keep the ocean out of the living room, but I’m pretty sure that the next hurricane will wash right through, as past storms probably have. And the house needs everything, unless you just want to camp out, and/or rent it out, in which case it’s a slam dunk. But it’s withstood all the historic 20th-century storms…somehow… and it’s still standing. This home requires a buyer with intestinal fortitude, optimism, deep pockets, and a big dream!

Here are some other new listings that will make any buyer’s heart sing:

#21710137
24 Lake Shore Drive, East Falmouth
$235,000

Here’s your tiny jewel at the lake! With views of beautiful Jenkins Pond, this 700+ s.f. cottage is just finishing up its makeover. Charming!

#21700659
10 Sand Pointe Shores Drive, Falmouth
$285,000

Here’s a not tiny but small (under 800 s.f.) home that checks off all the boxes for charm, comfort, condition, and price! Add in that it’s around the corner from one of the Jenkins Pond beaches and tennis court, AND it’s on a half acre so there’s privacy and room for an addition, AND it has a new roof and septic, as well as a fabulous porch- well, there’s nothing not to love! I expect it will be under agreement in days, if not minutes.

One of a Kind!

Here’s your opportunity, from the comfort of wherever you’re reading this, to tour one of the most interesting, sophisticated, and publicized homes in Falmouth: the Hutker property.

#21700896
14 Sippewissett Road, Falmouth
$1,495,000

Designed for himself and his family by Mark Hutker, the local architect whose firm’s designs are regularly on the cover of Architectural Digest and are sought after by celebrity and other well-heeled Vineyarders, this home makes brilliant use of a narrow, hilly lot. The 2.5-acre property, which abuts conservation land, consists of the main house, guest house, and in-law apartment, all with bucolic views across fields and a horse farm into woods. Lots of garages, privacy, and indoor-outdoor living, including a hot tub high up on a deck, and an outdoor shower accessed from the indoor shower in the owners’ suite. Very cool!

Cape Cod Hygge, Part 2

February 10, 2017 by Nadine

I’ve read some great books lately. Have you? Please share! Here are my own idiosyncratic recommendations:

The Sympathizer, by Viet Thanh Nguyen – This won the Pulitzer for fiction, and although it’s sometimes hard to follow who’s doing what where, I found the milieu (post fall of Saigon) fascinating, and the uncertainty about levels of deception suspenseful. The writing was superlative. Not an easy read, but a rewarding one.

The House By the Lake, by Thomas Harding – A true account of a cottage on a lake about an hour from Berlin, from the 1920’s when the author’s great-grandparents built it, through 2014, when it was restored and placed on the Register of Historic Places. A microcosm of the history of Berlin during these years, the book brought to life all the changes during these decades in a very personal and compelling way, including the bike and running path in front of the house that used to be where the Berlin Wall was.

The Mothers, by Britt Bennett – This is for when you just want to speed read and not think too much. I thought this book was like a more current Jodi Picoult novel – lots of emotion, but with black characters and “the mothers”, the churchwomen who were like a Greek chorus to the events. A fun read!

The Widower’s Tale, by Julia Glass – I loved The Three Junes, Julia Glass’ first novel to gain recognition, and was eager to read this one. It didn’t disappoint. The characters and setting of The Widower’s Tale were oh-so-familiar to me, and probably will be to you, too. Set in Cambridge and suburbs, we know the thinly-disguised towns. Is Lincoln the once-bohemian, Maynard the gentrifying mill town? The characters could be us, could be people we know, could be composites of lots of people we know. Regardless, very familiar. But the arc of events is deliciously unpredictable, as cranky Percy Darling falls in love with an unconventional (and much younger) artist, his perfect grandson becomes victim to his own protected life, and his children – well, life happens. Everyone and everything changes. For all of us, family is everything. So, too, in this novel. I liked it!

The Daily Show, by Chris Smith – An in-depth history of the genesis, development and end of The Daily Show with Jon Stewart as host, this is the real deal. If you watched the show, you’ll like going behind the scenes.

The Trespassers, by Tana French – Ingenious plotting, where nothing and no one is what or whom they appear to be, and brisk, irreverent dialogue move this suspenseful crime novel quickly. Antoinette Conway and Stephen Moran are the good guy detectives, Breslin the overbearing detective who seems to have an agenda not justified by the circumstances. The plot twists and turns; people have secrets; the hypotheses fall apart. Nothing is predictable, the characters are vivid, and the writing just the way it should be. A really fun read!

An eclectic list, this, but there’s probably something in there for you. Turn on the fire, light the candles, make hot chocolate, and get lost in a good book!
