Delivery of new water filter to my porch, along with encouraging message from Kelley Colon at F.W. Webb. Just another day in fabulous Falmouth! Thank you, Kelley.
Vignettes of Water Street Kitchen, Woods Hole
Water Street Kitchen is a visual as well as culinary feast. Kudos to Chelsea, Molly, Chef John, and their crew. Here’s some of what I saw tonight.
Blazing Sunset
Summer evening at Old Silver Beach. Some people long for this, but we get to live it night after night, and experience the joy and wonder all over again. Grateful for sand in my shoes and sunsets at the beach!
High, Low, and In Between – Part 1
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!
