Both Ends of the Price Spectrum

October 19, 2016 by Nadine

Recently I spent some time with prospects who live in a spectacular reproduction Cape directly on the ocean in East Sandwich. Their home is on the market, and they’ve been looking for their next nest in Harwichport and Barnstable Village, places they’re familiar with.

They like the idea of being able to walk to village amenities, and approached me because of my Westwind Cottages listings in West Falmouth Village. They also want to downsize somewhat.

There aren’t many homes currently for sale that are close to a village. After looking at the two for sale in Westwind, we looked at what’s available within a mile of Main Street. There are four between $600,000 and $1,100,000: 373 Walker, 166 Siders Pond, 102 Fresh River Lane, and 19 Clinton. Each one comes with some important trade-off, whether it’s a large flood insurance premium (Walker and Fresh River), or needing a lot of work (Siders Pond), or on a busy street (Clinton).

They were enthusiastic about Westwind because of the charm, detail, quality of construction, and proximity to the market, cafe, bike path, and beach. They just need that buyer for their Sandwich home!

At the other end of the price spectrum, I was out with a young couple and their three kids looking for their first home. Their decision will be based on price – what’s the most spacious home in a good neighborhood setting for under $350? This is what we saw:

#21608129
280 Riverbay Way, Falmouthport
$350,000

280-riverbay-way-falmouthport

This 1,950 s.f., 3-bedroom, 3-bath condo in Falmouthport offers a lot of comfortable space on 3 levels and is directly on the river. No garage, and a smallish kitchen, but the pool might be a more than acceptable trade-off. It’s in good condition, too.

#21608120
17 Weatherglass Lane, Falmouth
$369,000

17-weatherglass-lane-falmouth

In Davisville, and with access to Green Pond at the end of the street, this is a pretty cute house in great condition. But small – only 1,080 s.f., with 3 bedrooms and 2 baths. The lot is good-sized, if the buyer wanted to build an addition, and the woods behind the house are appealing for a family with kids.

#21608947
27 Candace Way, Falmouth
$339,000

27-candace-way-falmouth

Another very cute house, this one also smallish, with 1,112 s.f., 3 bedrooms, and 2 baths. But it’s been renovated, so it’s fresh, bright, and very attractive. In a tucked-away neighborhood off Brick Kiln, this is either a plus or a minus, depending on the buyer.

Trade-Offs, Part 2

September 22, 2016 by Nadine

#21606308
581 Locustfield Road, East Falmouth
$569,000

581-locustfield-road-east-falmouth

This is a charming home, one I describe as a “sophisticated farmhouse”. What’s that? A simple home, with exposed beams and nice detail; an updated kitchen and bathrooms; an unusual floor plan that includes entry through a screened porch; and orientation to the 2 acres of grounds with heated pool and hot tub. What’s not to like? Probably the sound of traffic going by, which included the rumble of lots of construction trucks the day I was there. But also, there’s no garage or central air, and the house is set sideways on the lot, without much curb appeal. This all would be an acceptable trade-off at a lower price, but I feel there are better choices in this price range.

#21605527
80 Eel River Road, Falmouth
$2,595,000

80-eel-river-road-falmouth

Going to the other end of the price spectrum, here’s a good example of an expensive house that still has trade-offs. The good: It’s young, built in 2011, so has a super floor plan, nice detail, fabulous kitchen and baths, and lovely expansive views of the water from the living spaces and the decks and patio that run the entire length of the house. The trade-offs: The next-door house is really close. In addition, the bedrooms are, well let’s just say, not large. Not small, but smaller than what we usually see in this price range. Also, there are three bedrooms in the main house, and the other two are part of a suite over the (3-car) garage. This could be good, or not, depending on the buyer.

#21605646
223-217 Meadow Neck Road, East Falmouth
$5,295,000

223-217-meadow-neck-road-east-falmouth

This is among the most expensive homes currently on the market, and the reason is obvious: It’s two homes, on two separate waterfront lots. One home is young, large, gracious, on two acres and with a lovely sandy beach on Waquoit Bay. The day I visited, there were a couple of clamdiggers in front. The other home is a small guest house, very cute, clean and comfortable on its own acre and with an in-ground pool. This smaller home would probably sell in the million-dollar range (although the listing agent estimated $1,800,000). Either way, is the other home and property then in the $4,000,000 range? We’ll see, but seems high to me. There is no dock and Waquoit Bay is shallow. In my experience, it’s the boaters who spend the bucks on expensive waterfront properties, and this one wouldn’t be conducive to keeping the boat at home. At least, if the boat is bigger than a kayak or a dinghy!

Trade-Offs, Part 1

September 21, 2016 by Nadine

I often say that every home – even the most expensive – comes with trade-offs. Here are some current examples:

#21606219
32 Jeffrey Lane, Falmouth
$279,000

32-jeffrey-lane-falmouth

Not a tiny house, but a small house – 908 s.f. The bedrooms are decent-sized, the closets are good, the house is younger (1994) and nicely built and maintained, the lot is 12,000 s.f., and there’s a good buffer of trees in back. The street is a nice cul-de-sac of similar homes. For under $300K, it’s probably the nicest house in town. Trade-off? No garage.

#21605721
5 Roberta Jean Circle, Falmouth
$369,900

5-roberta-jean-circle-falmouth

Here’s a cute, 1,296 s.f. ranch with 3 bedrooms, 2 full baths, a one-car garage, central air, hardwood floors, gas heat, irrigation, and a private yard that’s just the right size. And it’s in great condition! The trade-off? It’s a corner lot, and one of the streets is Old Meetinghouse, which gets quite a bit of traffic. But this is on the garage side of the house, so it’s invisible, and even the sound is buffered by the garage. I was not aware of the traffic when I was inside the home. So maybe this is an easy trade-off. The home is certainly well-priced, and offers good value.

#21606539
21 Pine Street, Falmouth
$539,900

21-pine-street-falmouth

This is a young, 3-bedroom, 3-bath, 1,799 s.f. condo that’s nicely built and in a nice location. It has that much-wanted first-floor bedroom suite, as well as 2 bedrooms and a loft upstairs. The living-dining area is a little tight as a result of the first-floor garage. The trade-off for this unit is that the location within the complex is such that views are of the street or the house to the rear.

High, Low, and In Between – Part 2

July 15, 2016 by Nadine

This is Part 2 of my top picks of some great homes that have recently come on the market.

#21605000
124 Silver Beach Avenue, Falmouth
$695,000

 

This New Silver Beach gem has bedrooms and bathrooms on all three floors, making it super comfortable for family and friends. There are second-floor views, it’s only a block to the beach, and it has a huge double lot – rare in this neighborhood. This hits all the buttons. 

#21604430
161 Alder Lane, Falmouth
$695,000

 

An interesting comp for Silver Beach Ave. above because it’s the same price and the same general area of town, this home is in Wild Harbor Estates. Like New Silver Beach, there’s a lovely sandy private beach, place for your kayaks and canoes, and tennis. This house is quite dated, however, and has a floor plan that had me wondering how I would make it work better. If you want to have some fun, click on the house and look at the pink bathroom.

#21604514
70 Birch Lane, Falmouth
$759,000
 

 

This is a great comp for Alder Lane (above) because they’re both in Wild Harbor Estates, and this house is priced only a small amount higher. This definitely has a better floor plan and an additional 500 s.f. It’s decorated with that “Florida” flavor, so that will either appeal or not. The other limitation is there’s no garage, and probably not anyplace to add one.

Really Cold Outside!

February 19, 2016 by Nadine

I was trying to capture a picture that would convey “really really cold outside”, and this was the best I could do, West Falmouth Harbor across from Chappy Beach frozen over. I saw mist rising from Buzzards Bay where the ocean was warmer than the air, but I couldn’t get close enough for a good picture. It was awesome to see!
