A year-round escape in Sandwich

- By Miriam Schwartz

Right on (and we mean right on) Sagamore Beach and nearly abutting Scusset Beach State Reservatio­n, where the Cape Cod Canal spills into Cape Cod Bay, there’s a little slice of paradise by way of 349 Phillips Road in Sandwich. Unspoiled and uncrowded waters are just a traipse down the boardwalk away and you can keep a watch on the waves from nearly every room.

All dressed up in the quintessen­tial cedar shingle but built in 2015, the beach property is not only pristine, it also features high-end architectu­ral touches and interior design flourishes we don’t often see in your typical vacation home. On that note, we’d gladly live here year-round and let the gas fireplace in the living space keep us toasty.

The story’s in the details at 349 Phillips Road, and they elevate the home from nice to “wow” via decorative moulding, wide planks on the engineered wood floor, and expertly crafted Lewis & Weldon built-ins (they also did the kitchen cabinetry.) An open-concept kitchen, living, and dining area is ideally suited for what the home is meant for — togetherne­ss.

While each nook is lovely on its own, we’d be remiss to not fawn over the kitchen and butler pantry that were designed with the amateur home chef in mind, as well as with their hungry guests. For bonus hangout space, there’s also a family room, front porch, and ample decking facing the water to while the afternoon away over a grill.

Additional­ly, the home features two primary suites, one on each floor, and 3.5 luxe baths so there’s no jostling over a postbeach shower.

On the market for $2,995,000, the sale of the home is represente­d by Tori Harrison of Sotheby’s Internatio­nal Realty — Cape Cod, Sandwich Brokerage, 508-455-7288.
