Listed: For $3,895,000, a Cohasset contemporary with a must-see deck
At 68 Nichols Road in Cohasset, there’s plenty of space to bask in the sun and drink in the waterfront views.
Patio season is officially upon us, and outdoor spaces are becoming a hotter commodity and a warmer welcome as the spring weather blossoms. At 68 Nichols Road in Cohasset, there’s plenty of space to bask in the sun and drink in the waterfront views, thanks to a stone patio out front and an impressive back deck that extends almost the entire length of the home.
The 1.37-acre property is on the market for $3,895,000. The 6,234-square-foot home offers five bedrooms, five full bathrooms, one half bathroom, and stunning views of Little Harbor Reservoir and the Atlantic. Frank Neer of Coldwell Banker Realty has the listing.
The driveway leads up to the three-car garage and porte cochère, and dark double doors open into the foyer.
The first floor shares a mostly open floor plan, with the living room partially separated from the rest of the space by a stairwell. Thanks to the wall of picture windows along the back of the home, the new owners will be able to savor views of the water even on those spring days where the weather is more reminiscent of winter.
Sunlight and recessed lighting illuminate the space, brightened by the white coffered ceiling and light-colored wood floors. A gas fireplace in the living room and a wood-burning fireplace in the sitting room are ideal for keeping things warm in the colder months.
The kitchen, which was remodeled in 2013, has stone countertops, sleek white cabinets that match the paneled refrigerator, and an island with a cooktop and seating.
A half bath and two bedrooms with wood floors and en-suite bathrooms round out this level.
Upstairs, the primary suite has vaulted ceilings, a walk-in closet, and a private balcony that faces the water. The en-suite bathroom features a tub, shower, and double-sink vanity. There is another bedroom suite on this level as well. There’s also a guest suite with a private entrance, as well as a full bathroom, sauna, and a sizable sitting room with a wood-burning fireplace.
For those hoping to enjoy more than just a view of the outdoors, the lush and slightly rocky grounds offer plenty to explore, and a small dock provides a spot to launch kayaks or paddle boards.
