If these walls could talk, oh what stories they would tell! Formerly known as Pine Grove Cottage this home is a treasure. According to the Mass. Historical Commission, the building was probably built to house educators or visitors to the Pine Grove Seminary (now Brooks Academy Museum) located across the street. Over the years it has served as a guest house, real estate office, insurance office, and private home. When the current owner purchased the property in 2009 they did several renovations and then opened it as an Airbnb in the summer and welcomed nearly 300 guests over the years. The craftsmanship of the time is evident throughout with tall ceilings, built-ins, wood floors, and thoughtful details. Featuring a large den, living room, and dining room offering ample space to entertain. And there is a first-floor bedroom and bath, with three additional bedrooms and a full bath on the second floor. Wonderfully located in the heart of Harwich Center providing easy access to the bike path, shopping, restaurants, Brooks Library and Brooks Park for summer concerts. Not to mention Whitehouse Field for summer baseball games!
