A rare opportunity to own an ocean view home in the exclusive Pochet Association.This quality-built post-and-beam home features soaring ceilings & expansive walls of glass that fill the home with natural light. Designed for comfortable coastal living, the spacious six-bedroom residence features an open floor plan, thoughtfully positioned decks, and views of the Atlantic. Private access to Nauset Beach (one of Cape Cod's finest ocean beaches) is a 10-minute walk from the property via the association bridge and boardwalk -- perfect for swimming, surfing, walking, surfcasting, or simply enjoying a day by the sea. A town landing on Pochet Inlet is located minutes away in the association for boating in Pleasant Bay. Situated on a large, private lot, the beautifully landscaped grounds are enhanced by specimen trees, shrubs, and gardens, creating a private and tranquil setting. A detached garage with ample bonus space & full bath above offers exceptional flexibility with overflow space for guests, home office, or creative pursuits. With some updates & town approvals, it could potentially become a rental or ADU. Ideally located near the charming village of East Orleans with its acclaimed restaurants, galleries, and shops, this exceptional property offers an opportunity to live the Cape Cod lifestyle at its very best.
