Description
A Piece of Falmouth History with Timeless Character There is something special about a house that has been part of a community for generations. Built in 1840, this distinctive Falmouth property offers a rare glimpse into the character and charm of another era, while providing the flexibility and convenience of a legal two-family residence. At the heart of the property is the main house, filled with the wonderfully unexpected spaces that make an older home so memorable, nooks and crannies, intimate corners, and details that speak to its long history. A separate one-bedroom apartment adds an exceptional layer of versatility and has been successfully rented for several years, offering income potential as well as possibilities for guests, family, or extended stays. Major renovations in the 1990s and 2000s included new windows, two furnaces, two hot water tanks, and separate laundry rooms for the main house and apartment, thoughtfully updating the property while allowing its historic character to remain. With energy costs being at all time highs, you will benefit from the solar energy panels on the roof. And then there is the location. Just moments from Falmouth's lively village center, you can easily enjoy the shops, restaurants, cafés, and everyday pleasures that make this community so appealing. Surf Drive Beach is less than a mile away, putting the ocean and the quintessential Cape Cod beach experience within easy reach. A property with history, personality, flexibility, and an enviable location, this is a home that invites you to become part of its next chapter.
