Built in 1971 and completely reimagined for modern Cape living, this four-bedroom, two-and-a-half-bath Truro home has shed every trace of its heavy '70s origins and emerged as something wonderfully fresh: warm, natural, artistic and quietly sophisticated. Set on just over half an acre, the 2,316-square-foot home lives much larger than its numbers suggest, with an unusual abundance of spaces for creating, reading, working, entertaining or simply retreating. A generous west-facing living room is filled with afternoon light, while the formal dining room-currently transformed into a wonderfully atmospheric apothecary-offers a glimpse of the home's creative spirit. The fully renovated kitchen is handsome, functional and designed for the way we live today. Just beyond, a cozy den with wood-burning stove captures the morning light, with sliders opening directly to the backyard. Perhaps the soul of the property is the enormous artist's studio, a wonderfully flexible space where the current owner has successfully pursued her creative work. Downstairs, an expansive basement provides exceptional storage and workspace, with ample power and access to water-ideal for woodworking, projects... or a serious workshop. The house has been thoughtfully updated throughout: replacement windows, a modernized kitchen, completely renovated bathrooms and solar panels that cover owners electricity costs. Solar contract ($110.00 per month) can be assumed or canceled and solar panels removed. A welcoming front porch overlooks much of the property, while a long, seductive driveway creates a wonderful sense of arrival and separation from the world outside. And the location is quintessential Truro: beautifully positioned between Cape Cod Bay and the Atlantic Ocean, seconds from North Truro Village and approximately ten minutes from Provincetown. Comfortable rather than precious, sophisticated without being formal, this is a home with an organic, modern-farmhouse sensibility and an unmistakably artistic soul-a place with room to gather, room to retreat and, perhaps most importantly, room to create.
