Exceptional Orleans opportunity for builders, developers or buyers seeking a property with significant potential. Set on a private, beautifully wooded 1.28-acre parcel, this property offers an existing 3-bedroom, 2-bath residence of approximately 2,005 square feet, a two-car garage and a spacious, level setting with mature trees. The existing Cape-style home offers considerable character, including wood floors throughout, exposed beams, a brick-surround wood-burning fireplace, soapstone kitchen sink and built-in shelving in the primary bedroom. A deck, fenced-in backyard and existing outdoor structure further enhance the property. The existing residence could be renovated, expanded or replaced, subject to Town of Orleans approvals, with potential for a 5-bedroom residence. The property's generous acreage, privacy and favorable setting provide an excellent foundation for creating a substantial new Cape Cod home or thoughtfully reimagining the existing property. Conveniently located near Nauset Beach, Crystal Lake, Kenrick Woods conservation trails and Arey's Pond, with the shops and restaurants of downtown Orleans nearby!
