Beach lovers, this might be as close as you can get to the water without needing to board a seaworthy vessel.

Sitting pretty on the shores of Cape Cod Bay, 5 Bay Beach Lane in Sandwich enjoys a distinctive sprinkling of sand, salt, and summer magic. While the proximity to water is its primary calling card, this lovely beach house has a little something for everyone — making it a crowd pleaser in case you’re in a hosting mood and a perfectly snug family retreat.

A generous 1.28-acre lot that includes a flat lawn and two-car garage practically kisses the waters. The home’s location is just as convenient to Sandwich’s creature comforts, namely the historic Sandwich Village and the new boardwalk. And there’s no better place to take in the waterside vibes than from the living, dining, and kitchen area. Set front-to-back, the space feels expansive thanks to soaring beamed, cathedral ceilings and huge windows overlooking the bay.

You don’t even have to wait for summer to shine down on us. In fact, fire up the massive brick wood burning fireplace and cozy up for a Cape winter. Cooking up a holiday feast is easy in the upgraded kitchen complete with wall oven, large island with seating, and of course, water views to keep you company as you’re chopping up a storm.

There are three bedrooms and two baths, with just over 2,000 square feet — a just-right sprawl for comfort and warmth.

On the market for $1,349,000, the sale of the property is represented by Jane Bodrie with Sotheby’s International Realty – Cape Cod – Sandwich Brokerage., 508-737-4915.
