You wake to the smell of sea air. Stroll the 0.4 miles to a gentle ocean beach, coffee in hand, sand between your toes by 9am, where you'll take in a vista of boats sailing by. Midday it's a paperback that doesn't get read much from your lawn chair in the backyard, maybe a nap that wasn't planned, and a late afternoon swim to cool off. For some, this is how you spend your summer weekends. If you're lucky, this is your everyday all summer. This property is the epitome of a classic Cape Cod cottage in West Yarmouth, where you can walk to Bayview Beach, Tugboats, Cape Cod Hospital, Hyannis Marina & Harbor. This light, bright home features a new kitchen, newer windows, mini-splits, first-floor laundry, all hardwood floors, a fenced-in yard, a brand new storage shed, gas heat, and an outdoor shower to rinse your sandy toes off after your stroll home from the beach. The oversized backyard leaves plenty of room for lawn games and gatherings, and the low-traffic side street means you'll enjoy that nap undisturbed. With 3 bedrooms, 2 baths, and recently updated, this level of turnkey, walk-to-beach living rarely lasts on the market.
