Modern Cape Cod Mansion on Its Own Peninsula Dazzles for $12.9M

Location, location, location!

A modern mansion on its own private peninsula in Cataumet, MA, has hit the market for $12,995,000.

The 9,553-square-foot estate sits on a 17.5-acre parcel that juts into Red Brook Harbor. The five-bedroom home offers some of Cape Cod’s most spectacular views.

“It is located on a point that is surrounded by water on three sides,” says listing agent Paul Grover, of Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices Robert Paul Properties. “It’s situated in Cataumet, which is really a waterfront area in the town of Bourne. It has this old Cape Cod feel to it, but what makes it really unusual is that it is a modern house located in an established area.”

Built in 2009, the main residence was designed by award-winning architect, Doreve Nicholaeff.

The property originally became available last September for $15,995,000 but was taken off the market early this year, before reappearing at its current price.

“The sellers have made some changes over the years; but it was a high-quality construction when it was built,” Grover says. “So there hasn’t really been a need to remodel, because of its timeless design.”

Designed for entertaining, the three-story dwelling features a sitting room surrounded by walls of windows that offer a spectacular view of the pool and waterfront setting.

The two-story kitchen is well-appointed with custom cabinets, high-end appliances, a butler’s pantry, and a built-in breakfast banquette that overlooks the harbor.

The spacious home also features double-height ceilings, two fireplaces, and many places to enjoy the beautiful views.

An upstairs primary suite boasts a sitting area, walls of glass that open to a wraparound terrace, two walk-in closets, and an en suite bath with a soaking tub and water views.

And if you want a better look at the surrounding area, head upstairs to the top-floor observatory/entertainment room, conveniently outfitted with a wet bar.

Other amenities include a tennis court, indoor and outdoor pools, a gym, sauna, steam shower, and locker room.

The property comes with a three-bedroom guesthouse, tennis court, and deep-water dock for boats.

“The 17.5-acre lot is almost unheard of, but what makes it so special is that it is located just 10 minutes from the Bourne Bridge, and you can get to Buzzards Bay in just a few minutes,” Grover notes. “It is also accessible to the ferries to go to Martha’s Vineyard and Nantucket. When you get here, though, you feel like you are a world away from everything.”
