A NAUSET HEIGHTS Icon! The Elizabeth Bennett house--one of the oldest extant cottages on fabled Nauset Heights--offers lovely ocean views, private association beach immediacy, and a generous slice of history! An archetypal Craftsman-style bungalow with expansive wraparound porch, the landmark home (c. 1914) is warm, well-built, and welcoming...as a year-round or summer residence. Impeccably maintained, the 5BR home and detached garage are set on a level, beautifully landscaped parcel running from Nauset Heights Road through to Nauset Road (the Heights' ''Gold Coast''). Verdant lawns, fruit trees, roses, and flower beds offer a virtual riot of color in high season and an idyllic setting for gatherings and games with family and friends. From the house, a couple-minute pad along Nauset Road leads to the ''Overlook'' and private association (Nauset) beach. The home itself retains original features including tongue and groove Douglas fir paneling, high beamed ceilings, beautifully burnished fir floors, and a massive stone fireplace; its many updates have been thoughtfully chosen to harmonize with period style and sensibility. An (unheated) ell off the kitchen is a superb multi-purpose room for pantry items, mudroom, workshop, and more. With gray shingle cladding and architectural shingled roof, the home is cooled in summer by ocean breezes and air conditioning, and warmed in winter by full-wrap insulation, new propane furnace, backup generator, and split units on the second floor. This legacy property awaits its next stewards....and summer! NOTE: As the home is occupied, kindly respect owner's privacy and do not enter the grounds. Interior photos and video coming soon.
