In the heart of Cotuit, this historic home offers character, privacy, and thoughtful updates across a beautifully landscaped setting, close to the village center and just 0.6 miles from scenic Ropes Beach. Recognized by the local HistoricalCommission and featured in Cape Cod Magazine, the property pairs original details, including hardwood floors and staircase, with the ease of a full renovation that respects its character and later guest house addition. A shell driveway leads to a private backyard framed by hydrangeas, mature plantings, irrigation, an outdoor shower, and a stone patio with outdoor fireplace, perfect for summer or fall evenings with friends. Inside, the main house offers a living room with a gas fireplace, bay window dining room, kitchen with granite island, gas cooktop, wall oven, pantry, and custom cabinetry, plus a first-floor bedroom, full bath, laundry, family room, and screened sun porch overlooking the yard. Upstairs are the primary suite with walk-in closet, bath, and private terrace, plus an additional bedroom, a full bath, and a loft area that can be used as an office or an entertainment space. Detached guest quarters, known as The Roost, offer living space, kitchenette, bath, loft bedroom, storage, and full basement. Ideal as a year-round home, summer retreat, or income property. Passing Title V for 4 bedrooms in hand.
