Property Description
The best architecture doesn't compete with nature... It embraces it. At 78 Gardiner Road, walls of glass, expansive decks, and clean modern lines place the ever-changing waters of Buzzards Bay at center stage. Presiding over a rugged shoreline in one of Cape Cod's most intellectually and culturally rich communities, this restored waterfront residence captures the spirit of a remarkable era in architecture while providing an extraordinary setting for life today. Walls of glass frame endless water views. Clean lines and soaring ceilings dissolve the boundaries between indoors and out. Sunlight dances across the bay from morning until evening when sunsets astound. The rhythms of tide, wind, and sea become part of everyday life. This is not a home that competes with its surroundings... It is at one with them. A broad sweep of lawn gives way to a seating area overlooking a dramatic natural shoreline where weathered boulders, native vegetation, and the waters of Buzzards Bay create a landscape that changes by the hour and by the season. Morning coffee on the deck. Afternoon swims. Sailboats crossing the horizon. Winter storms rolling in from the west. Every day offers a different perspective. Inside, this four bedroom 3,700+ square foot home has been carefully restored to its original coolness. There are huge ocean front family rooms on each level, multiple other gathering areas for both larger and intimate. Please verify all information contained herein.
