Property Description
Every home tells a story--this one tells many. Built in 1876, as the summer residence of Massachusetts Governor and industrialist William Lewis Douglas, this remarkable estate is a true piece of Cape Cod history. Blending Queen Anne & Colonial Revival architecture, it captures the elegance of its era with soaring ceilings, gleaming hardwood floors, intricate woodwork, bay windows, custom made gas fireplace, columns, and a striking wraparound porch perfect for sea breezes and gatherings. Set on just over an acre above Monument Beach and Buzzards Bay, the property offers privacy, mature trees, and the possibility of enhanced views. The spacious 3,467 sq. ft. residence features 6 bedrooms, 2.5 baths, & expansive entertaining rooms where generations have hosted family celebrations, weddings, and clambakes. Easy access to the beach & convenient to Boston and Providence, the home offers both retreat & connection. Whether preserved in its historic grandeur or reimagined with modern luxuries, it remains what it has always been--a place to gather, celebrate, and dream. Rare offering to own an exceptional property!
