Modern, architect-designed home with water views

‘Hundred Mile House’, a recently completed modernist home in Wellfleet, MA is available for weekly rentals. The design was inspired by the nearby historic modernist homes and other buildings designed in the ‘40s and ‘50s by Breuer, Saltonstall, Thompson, and Gropius, and also by the common concrete sea walls that protect the fragile sandy shores of Cape Cod. This is a special place, designed to inspire. Go to www.hundredmile.house for details about the design and other projects by Duane Smith. The home is located on a quiet road in the Pleasant Point neighborhood of Wellfleet. Drummer Cove salt water marsh is directly across the road. It’s a five-minute walk to the beach and boat landing at Pleasant Point, and one mile to the National Seashore and LeCount Hollow beach on the Atlantic Ocean. Easily walk or bike to the convenience store, liquor store, bakery, post office, bike rental, sandwich shops, and more. It’s less than a 10 minute drive to fresh water ponds, the drive-in theater, cinemas, flea market, tennis courts, and Wellfleet town center.
