Cape Porpoise Harbor House
Main deck along the back of the house with Adirondack chairs, a dining table, and a small upper balcony above.

The house

New construction on a family cove lot. Four bedrooms, three baths, room for eight. A first-floor suite with its own bath. Kitchen, living, and dining open to a deck that looks straight down the lawn to the harbor.

View from the deck table over the lawn to Cape Porpoise harbor, moored boats, and houses on the far shore.
From the deck table: the lawn, the cove, and the village across the water.

The deck

The kitchen, living room, and dining room all open onto it. Morning coffee faces the harbor; at night the moon comes up over the water. There is a table that seats the whole house and Adirondack chairs for relaxing.

White kitchen with a gas range, large refrigerator, farmhouse sink under the window, and a long stone counter.

A kitchen you can cook in

Gas range, a big refrigerator, a dishwasher, and a long counter with room for two cooks and a kid on a stool. The general market in the village is an easy walk for whatever you forgot.

Round wooden dining table beside a sofa and two blue armchairs, with the staircase to the upper floor at right.
The main room: dining table beside the sofas, stairs to the bedrooms.

Two living rooms

The main room holds the dining table and the sofas in one open space. A den with the TV, a desk, and a shelf of board games, is where the kids end up when the grown-ups keep talking.

First-floor bedroom with a white-covered bed, two lamps, a dresser, and a small window.
First-floor bedroom, own bath, no stairs.
First-floor bathroom with a glass-door shower, vanity, and white tile floor.
The suite's bath, with a walk-in shower.

The first-floor suite

A bedroom and full bath on the main floor, so grandparents, or anyone who would rather not do stairs, have a room of their own without going up.

This corner of the house was once Lee Hutchins’s radio and television repair shop, run between fishing trips. Today it has a quiet bed, a good shower, and a door to the rest of the house.

Bedroom with a wooden bunk bed, blue quilts, a braided rug, and a chair by the window.

The yard and the water's edge

A mown grass path runs from the lawn to the shore, where you can put in a kayak or a paddleboard. It is tidal: rocky and muddy at low water, best around high tide. Bring water shoes. There is no dock and no trailer access.

A gas grill, fire pit, and Adirondack chairs live under the deck. Beach towels, chairs, an umbrella, and a cooler are in the basement for guests.

A working-waterfront past

Dex and Josie Hutchins bought the property in 1906. It was part of a larger working waterfront, where Dex, several of his sons, and other fishermen based their operations.

Their great-grandchildren built the present house. The owners designed it to complement the style of the neighborhood, and it has stayed a place to settle in, head outside, and enjoy the village.
