Ask a questionAbout Brian Swanton
Brian & Leah met in the early 1990's at Arizona State University and reside in Phoenix, Arizona where they raised their 3 children. Leah was born and raised near Des Moines, Iowa, and Brian grew up in a large family in Quincy, MA. They often travel back to Massachusetts to visit Brian's family, which led them to purchase their dream vacation home at the gateway to Cape Cod on Buzzard's Bay.
Why Brian Swanton chose Wareham
We are excited to share this beautiful home with you and your family and friends. Each time we come back to New England, we are always searching for the perfect vacation rental property to host our family reunions. After many years of renting vacation properties ourselves, we finally found the perfect home… so we decided to buy it. Since we cannot be here as often as we would like, we decided to share it with you. We know you will love it as much as we do.
What makes this House unique
This home is called 'The Osprey Nest' because of the giant osprey nest sitting atop a pole in the conservation area in the backyard. A family of ospreys reside in that nest from March through September each year. This home is truly one of a kind. Nowhere else can you find this level of seclusion while being surrounded by so many nearby activities such as shopping centers, water sports, golf courses, water parks, etc. It's truly the best of both worlds. With stunning views of the famous Cape Cod Canal Railroad Bridge, this home will make you want to sip your wine on one of the three back porches and take in the sights and sounds of Buzzards Bay. Just minutes to the Bourne Bridge, the beauty of this home is that you do not have to cross the busy bridge to get to the home. During the summer months, the harbormaster's launch service will pick you up from your dock and take you to Onset Beach to dine during sunset, and then take you back to your dock after dinner. The private beach is soft and sandy and the water is so clear that you can see the ocean floor from 8 feet above. The only thing between you and the private beach is 15 acres of protected conservation lands. With dedicated paths throughout the conservation area, you can pull out the golf cart from the golf cart garage in the backyard (included with the home) and drive down to the beach with your coolers and chairs, or simply stroll 300 yards to the beach on foot. Take full advantage of the special events offered all summer long by the Onset Bay Association, as well as recreational activities offered by the Buzards Bay Coalition... right in your own backyard. You can also have bikes, kayaks or stand-up paddle boards delivered right to the home! You can drive the golf cart to Little Harbor Country Club to play golf, take a narrated cruise from Onset Beach down the Cape Cod Canal, or walk from the house to the Mass. Audubon Society's Great Neck Wildlife Sanctuary. It's your own Kennedy compound.
