Map & Owner's Profile
Year Purchased: 2006
Why the Owner Chose Falmouth
My wife and I purchased the house in 2006. It had been my grandfather's house, and my brother and two sisters and I had all spent a lot of time here and had a lot of happy memories associated with the place, but it had been seriously neglected for many years. It was very satisfying for my wife and I to be able to heal and restore the place, and bring out the comfort and beauty that had always been its potential.
The Unique Benefits at this House
It is very peaceful and private, and lushly beautiful in any direction you care to look. Even in the dead of winter it is beautiful, and we can spend hours just watching the birds and other creatures that live around the property. In the summer the town can be overrun with tourists and summer residents, yet you would never know it sitting out on the back patio eating a relaxing breakfast next to the pool. The town and the local beaches are in easy walking distance, and with a bicycle you are free to go anywhere and do anything.
Unlike many towns on the Cape and Islands, Falmouth is truly a "year round" town, with a healthy local population of scientists, writers and artists of all kinds, so there is always a lot to do no matter what time of year we come here.
