Land with Home for Sale in Dennis, Massachusetts
48 Black Flats Rd, Dennis, MA 02638
The drone nearly missed it. Tucked so deeply beneath a mature canopy that it barely registers from above, 48 Black Flats Road reveals itself only after a long, private journey down a winding dirt drive. Then the trees part and nearly two acres open around you. From that same aerial vantage, Cape Cod Bay glimmers beyond the marsh, with Mayflower and Bay View Beaches stretching across the frame. The water is close. The world is not. Set approximately 956 feet back from Black Flats Road, this substantial 1972 Garrison Colonial offers approximately 2,100 square feet with four bedrooms, generous room sizes, a traditional floor plan, fireplace, mudroom and laundry. The house is largely original and ready for significant updating-an opportunity to take a large home in an exceptional setting and make it your own. But what may be hardest to duplicate is what surrounds it. The property consists of two parcels creating nearly two acres, with the long driveway corridor providing a natural buffer from the road. There is a large clearing around the house, plenty of parking and space to imagine gardens, outdoor entertaining and other thoughtful improvements, subject to required approvals Bring your vision and create your own private Cape Cod compound. The combination of acreage, seclusion and a substantial four-bedroom home offers tremendous flexibility for someone ready to rethink the property and unlock its potential. Multigenerational living or a future ADU may also be worth exploring, subject to all applicable approvals. Mayflower and Bay View Beaches are approximately 0.6 mile away as the crow flies. The actual walking route is longer, following the private drive out to Black Flats Road, while a bike ride to the beach is very realistic. Town water. R-60 zoning. Portions of the property are identified within FEMA Zone AE. Buyers and buyer agents to perform their own due diligence regarding flood zone, insurance, septic, zoning and any proposed improvements. The house needs some work. The setting doesn't.
