Cape house dreams do come true in this magnificent water view home. Recently renovated by renowned architect Patrick Ahearn; this 7 bedroom home checks all the boxes, while retaining it's 1925 Cape Cod charm. Once upon a time this home was built as the original Pochet Association ''Exhibition House''. Through the years it has been lovingly cared for and then brilliantly renovated in 2018 to the present. The custom bespoke finishes are highlighted by the highest quality wood work while multiple fireplaces give each room it's own New England charm. The layout is open and yet offers some private spaces for work. The chefs kitchen is fully equipped to entertain a crowd with it's oversized island. Each bedroom boasts an ensuite bathroom; giving adults a choice of primary suites.The third floor bunk room has built in bunk beds and an amazing ocean view! The pool, patio and guest house are something to behold; and out the back door; Nauset beach beckons. The pool area is designed for entertaining and is a focal point of many of the interior living spaces. Across the street lies a private wooden footbridge onto Nauset beach. Let the sound of the waves lull you to sleep.
