About this home
Welcome to the distinguished Old Manse Inn, a romantic and historic Sea Captain’s manor gracefully situated in the heart of Brewster, Massachusetts, one of Cape Cod’s most picturesque villages. A proud member of the Select Registry of Distinguished Inns, this exceptional Bed and Breakfast embodies the timeless spirit of coastal New England while offering the refined comforts of a modern luxury retreat. For those who have long dreamed of owning a piece of Cape Cod history, the Old Manse Inn presents a rare opportunity — a fully restored landmark property with a thriving hospitality business and impeccable reputation.
Steeped in maritime tradition, the inn was originally built for a 19th-century Sea Captain, and today its gracious architecture and warm ambiance reflect the elegance of that golden age. From its stately façade and meticulously maintained gardens to the soft glow of its interior woodwork, every element tells a story of heritage, care, and timeless charm. The inn has been lovingly preserved and thoughtfully enhanced, blending original period details with modern upgrades that meet the expectations of today’s discerning travelers.
The inn features twelve uniquely appointed guest rooms, each designed to offer a distinctive sense of place and intimate comfort. Rich with character, these rooms invite guests to relax amid antique furnishings, plush linens, and thoughtful amenities. Every room includes a private en-suite bath. Some accommodations feature reading nooks or romantic four-poster beds, while others showcase tranquil views of the manicured grounds or village beyond.
Three elegant common areas provide versatile gathering spaces. The grand parlor welcomes conversation and evening relaxation, the cozy library offers quiet moments by the fire, and the sunlit sitting room invites a morning cup of coffee overlooking the gardens. The formal dining room serves as the setting for the inn’s celebrated breakfasts, where guests enjoy locally inspired dishes crafted in the fully equipped commercial kitchen — a space also suited for private events.
Behind the scenes, the inn operates with efficiency and ease. The property includes generous owner’s quarters and dedicated employee housing, ensuring seamless year-round operation. Every aspect has been designed for both beauty and practicality, allowing new owners to continue its success confidently.
Financially, the Old Manse Inn is a turnkey business with steadily increasing revenues, a loyal clientele, and outstanding guest reviews. Inclusion in the Select Registry places it among the finest independent inns in North America, providing marketing advantages and brand recognition.
Ideally located minutes from Cape Cod Bay, the Cape Cod Rail Trail, and Brewster’s village center, the inn offers proximity to beaches, boutiques, art galleries, and fine dining — all while providing a tranquil escape from modern life. Guests return year after year, drawn by history, hospitality, and the authentic coastal beauty that defines Brewster and the broader Cape Cod experience.
More than a business, the Old Manse Inn represents a way of life — celebrating elegance, tradition, and the enduring allure of New England. To own this property is to become a steward of its story and a part of the legacy that continues to make Cape Cod one of America’s most enchanting destinations. With its timeless architecture, impeccable reputation, and ideal location, the Old Manse Inn stands as one of Cape Cod’s most extraordinary offerings — a property where history, heart, and hospitality meet in perfect harmony.
