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 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.

Income Producers

September 16, 2016 by Nadine

Coincidentally, this week I’ve also seen a few homes that offer solid income potential.  Each is a little different, but here they are:

#21606888
25 Wohelo Drive, North Falmouth
$448,000

25-wohelo-drive-north-falmouth

This is a younger split entry in North Hill, a favorite family neighborhood.  The lower level is an illegal apartment currently lived in by an older parent.  It would probably rent for $1000-1200 a month.  The downside is that it is open to the rest of the house, and the house itself needs some sprucing up.  This would be ideal as an in-law, or separate quarters for someone connected with the owners.

#21606746
28 Heather Lane, North Falmouth
$459,900

28-heather-lane-north-falmouth

Also in North Hill, this is a 2,306 s.f. Colonial with a completely separate first-floor apartment, currently occupied by an active single woman in her 60’s who would like to stay.  She pays $1200 a month rent, so this house will appeal to anyone who wants to reduce living expenses substantially while still retaining privacy and having comfortable spaces of one’s own.  I picture this as a second-home owner, here on weekends.  What a great opportunity!

#21605156
49 Silver Beach Avenue, North Falmouth
$549,000

49-silver-beach-avenue-north-falmouth

Here’s your grandparents’ beach house, complete with natural wood beadboard, narrow staircase and hallways, vintage kitchen and baths, and entry through the sunporch that runs the length of the front of the house.  No central air, but New Silver Beach is a quick walk, and the house generated $20,000 from one July 1 – September 1 rental this summer.  That’s a pretty good return on investment, one that’s hard to match with most investments!

All In A Week’s Work

September 15, 2016 by Nadine

I spent a good part of this past week with a couple from Florida, here to buy a summer home.  Much to the woman’s surprise, they flew home today with the most charming house just off Sippewissett solidly under agreement to them, and with the inspection accomplished as well.

How’d we do this?  To begin with, they’ve been online for what seemed to be 18 hours a day for at least the last month.  After basic familiarization with neighborhoods and prices, it stopped being productive, because you really just have to put your feet on the ground and see the neighborhoods; assess your reaction; evaluate your priorities (in this case, kayaking vs. biking; away from town vs. being near downtown); and figure out what trade-offs you’re willing to make.  Because there are always trade-offs!

The first day, we looked at 20 homes, either by drive-bys or going inside.  It was an exhausting day, but by the next day, there were only a few homes that made the short list to see again.  Here are some:

#21606802
211 Great Bay Street, Falmouth
$975,000

211-great-bay-street-falmouth

What a sweet house, so “beachy” and with glorious views!  But on the second day, surrounding homes not consistent with the quality and value of this one took it off the list.

#21605741
55 Seashell Lane, Falmouth
$900,000

55-seashell-lane-falmouth

This house is so similar to mine that I’m positive it was designed by Walter Yarosh, the same Falmouth architect who designed my house.  (He was busy in the 90’s; I keep seeing variations on the theme.)  This one is still original, but because I’ve just done a major renovation that included reconfiguring some spaces, it was easy for me to help my buyers envision what the house could be.  The setting, directly on Great Pond and facing west; and with a neighborhood dock, is superb.  But in the end, the prospect of managing a project of this scope long distance also took this one off the list.

#21607478
11 Place Road, Falmouth
$650,000

11-place-road-falmouth

This is the one that rose to the top.  The location is superb in every way, with a neighborhood trail to the bike path; a short half mile to glorious Woodneck Beach; and less than a mile to the activities and pleasures of Main Street, Highfield Hall, and Beebe Woods.  The price was fair, and because the buyers had seen so many homes, they had a solid sense of value and understood that.  The space was just right, not too big but not too small.  The trade-off is that yes, it does need a new kitchen and the addition of central air.  The buyers would have loved to have found a house that had these already, but they have a contractor they trust, and once the work is done, they’ll have a wonderful Cape house (with a spectacular kitchen!) in exactly the spot they wanted.  A great week!
