Did you spend too many precious weekend hours in traffic schlepping to the Cape only to have to turn around and go home?

What if, instead, you moved there permanently? Sitting pretty at the gateway to Cape Cod, Bourne borders Buzzards Bay and the Cape Cod Canal but it’s also an hour’s train ride from Boston, an easy commute.

What we’re getting at is that the condo-that-lives-like-a-single-family home at 15 Berrywood Court just makes sense. It’s practically the suburbs — plus sunny, warm, close to the beach, and abutting the Brookside Golf Club.

The 2004 residence occupies a coveted end-unit spot at the end of a cul-de-sac, giving you the peace and quiet you crave, plus privacy and a view of the lush perennial gardens. While it’s officially listed with two bedrooms, there is ample room to spread out — close to 2,800 square feet across three levels.

Best of all, you get the ease of first-floor living with a primary bedroom (and laundry) on the first floor. There is family and recreation space on the walk-out lower level that leads to a covered deck. Need more room for your summer lounging? The spacious upper deck and screened in porch off the living room and kitchen offer sun-drenched nooks for coffee, grilling, and devouring a beach read.

Boasting some serious updates, the kitchen is opened up with an oversized island with storage and seating, new cabinets and appliances, and easy flow to the living room and larger dining space. Hidden away but no less important: The primary HVAC system is brand-new.

Open house hours are Saturday, Sept. 14, from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m.

The sale of the property, on the market for $749,000, is represented by Susan Challenger and Margaret Gifford of Sotheby’s International Realty – Cape Cod, Falmouth Brokerage.
