319 S Orleans Rd, Orleans, MA 02653

Nauset Village belongs to a quieter Cape Cod--a time of screen doors slapping shut, salt-crusted skin, and evenings measured by light turning amber over the pines. Arriving at Unit 2, affectionately known as ''East Watch,'' you sense an immediate shift in the air. Set where village life yields to the National Seashore, this 1935 cottage offers 588 square feet of remarkably finished space. The 3-bedroom layout is an uncommon find in Orleans, providing true flexibility and strong income potential. Full-size appliances--including an electric range, dishwasher, and stackable washer/dryer--add real-world comfort and value. Inside, cathedral ceilings and skylights flood the living space with light. 2023 windows protect from the elements while 2021 mini-splits keep summer nights cool. In the dining area, a fireplace was removed to make room for new sliders onto a private composite deck. Outside features include a paver patio, outdoor shower, new siding, shed, and a blue stone parking pad. Open April-October, come drop anchor where mornings bring first light over the ocean and evenings fade softly across the bay flats.
