About this home
There are still a few places on Cape Cod that feel exactly the way you remember them--quiet little lanes where the river glimmers through the trees, where gracious homes have settled gently into the landscape over time, and where the breeze off the water carries the unmistakable feeling of summer. These are the kinds of places that feel quietly tucked away from the world, little riverfront neighborhoods where life moves to the rhythm of the tides. Captain Nickerson Road is one of those rare places.Framed by a charming arbor at the entrance and a cobbled driveway, this storybook two-bedroom bungalow appears from the outside as a classic tiny Cape. Step inside, however, and the house reveals its personality--gingerbread trim, sweet built-ins, and gleaming pine floors that give the home a warmth and charm that immediately draws you in.The living space is open between the living room, dining area, and kitchen, allowing the home to live far larger than its footprint while keeping the breathtaking view of Bass River front and center from nearly every vantage point. A magnificent picture window captures the gentle water views, with a large quarterboard sign above it that simply reads "Location, Location, Location." It's a fitting tribute to a setting that truly speaks for itself.
A lovely fireplace--never used--adds another touch of Cape Cod charm to the main living space.
The generous primary bedroom feels like a peaceful retreat after a day spent on the water, while the second bedroom and updated full bath offer comfortable accommodations for family and guests.
But the space that truly defines the lifestyle here is the enormous screened porch at the rear of the home. This is where summer happens--where you'll dine, read, nap, entertain friends, or simply sit quietly while the river breeze drifts through.
Set on a sunny .39-acre lot that slopes gently to the rear, the property offers exciting possibilities for future renovation or expansion, with the natural grade lending itself well to a walk-out design that could further take advantage of the setting. The property also enjoys deeded access to Bass River, offering the opportunity to easily enjoy boating, kayaking, or simply spending time along the water.
Surrounded by gracious homes thoughtfully positioned to capture the river views, this neighborhood is one of the Cape's most beautiful hidden locations--places often only fully discovered and appreciated from the water.
And yet, despite the feeling of stepping back to a quieter time, you are moments from marinas, beaches, golf, restaurants, and everything that makes Cape Cod so special.
A charming river-view cottage in a location where homes are treasured--and rarely available....
