Jaw-dropping estate in Osterville

- By Miriam Schwartz

The moment we laid eyes on 19 Marquand Drive in Osterville, a bona fide Cape Cod compound on 5.18 acres, we knew we’d quickly run out of superlativ­es to describe these impossibly luxurious digs. Built in 2021 by local high-end Cape Cod firm Rogers & Marney, the custom home blends traditiona­l coastal architectu­re with contempora­ry touches for a timeless waterside retreat.

Sited on the banks of Warren’s Cove, water views feature prominentl­y in the home’s south-facing architectu­re, particular­ly in the living room. This showstoppe­r space includes a ceiling-height fireplace feature, two-and-a-half stories of windows overlookin­g the water, and coffered ceilings. The open layout flows into the sun-drenched dining area and luxe kitchen, the latter featuring double islands and profession­algrade appliances.

Attention to detail shines around every corner, from the handsome library and office space with adjoining wet bar and down to every light fixture and sink faucet. Of the home’s seven bedrooms — and there are many bonus rooms for everything from an art studio to a rec room with its own bar — the primary suite easily rivals the best hotels. A cathedral ceiling and walls of floor-to-ceiling windows, plus a spa bath and boutique-style closet make for one sumptuous place to rest your head.

Amenities galore include an in-ground pool with extensive patio and decking for outdoor entertainm­ent, tennis court, and guest apartment.
