“In its proper season, every door is unlocked, every window wide open. People, too, are more open in summer, moving through the house and each other’s lives as freely as the wind. Their schools and offices are distant, their guard is down, their feet are bare,” writes George Howe Colt. A more lovely door to be unlocked is nearly impossible to find. Open to the shores of Nantucket Sound in Wianno on Cape Cod this this shingled masterpiece offers a magnificent view splayed before you from over 200 feet of shoreline. With shoes a distant memory, step off the covered porch and, feel the lawn, the salt-smoothed seaside deck and finally, the sand. Look back at this 4,028 square foot home framed against an impossibly blue sky with seven bedrooms, multiple gathering areas and a kitchen perfect for cooking up memories as cuisine, and know all is well in your world. There are memories to be made, milestones to celebrate and feelings to restore. Please verify all information contained herein.
