TAKE OUR VIRTUAL TOUR! Spectacular, freshly renovated, the Samuel Payne House is a Classic Full Cape with Greek Revival influence on a large wooded, fenced lot.

The Ground floor contains a master bedroom with ensuite and fireplace, an additional bedroom/sitting room as you please with a fireplace, a cozy study, a spacious living room. Brand new addition contains a stunning garden-view dining room, efficient, stainlesss steel Bosch applianced kitchen, laundry room and half bath. Multiple entrances to a meditation garden, backyard patios, front lawn and a service areas create delightful flow & efficiency. All bathrooms have been completely refurbished with marble tile, glass showers, chrome fixtures. Upstairs, under the eaves are 3 fully air-conditioned bedrooms, 2 full baths, plentiful storage and views of gardens and woods.
A re-envisioned driveway with newly landscaped grounds (and buried utility connections) create a new perspective on this estate.
All new systems installed throughout the house:propane boiler, hot water radiators, mulltizone airconditioning, new full house capable generator, new outdoor shower/room, newly overhauled garage.
However- the house still displays many of its original features - four light transom over the front door, tapered wood moulding on flanking pilasters support an entablature, original brick fireplaces, vitrine cupboards, wainscoting, and wide, wide pumpkin pine floors. Nauset Light fixtures. All original windows have paned glass, protected by new addition storm windows and screens. New sliders access a huge picket fenced, child and pet safe yard ready for cookouts, entertaining and gardening (without invading deer!) Large portion of the lot remains in original state with a songbird natural preserve taking up the western portion of the acreage.
This house sets a new standard in the Longnook area's Writer's Corner and is a must see!
