An iconic estate at 1005 Main St in Dennis Village, this lakefront sanctuary was the vision of Joseph Carr, founder of Josh Cellars Winery, and wife Deirdre. Inspired by classic Nantucket architecture with a Hudson River Valley/NYC flair, the home was designed by Mark Zibrat and built by Gable Bulding, both of Chatham. It offers universally functional interiors tailored just as well for grand galas as for intimate gatherings. The sprawling front lawn has hosted rousing white parties and lawn games, while a winding, wooded path leads to the shores of Scargo Lake, complete with a hidden lakeside living room. Inside, enjoy wide King Pine floors, a custom La Cornue range, Italian Carrara marble, and a secret wine tasting room. Featured across top publications, the property includes a new two-story, two-car garage withan executive office, plus a separate "salon" outbuilding that seats up to 14 for an al fresco dinner party. Built along historic Route 6A where early sea captains intentionally settled, this tranquil retreat offers private and warm freshwater swimming with the famous Dennis bayside beaches just around the corner.
