1 BAILEYS ISLAND ROAD, SCITUATE, MA
PRICE UPON REQUEST
PRIVATE WATERFRONT ESTATE
Tucked away at the tranquil edge of Cohasset Harbor, this exceptional shingle-style residence offers a rare blend of privacy, natural beauty, and refined coastal living. Set on elevated grounds and surrounded by 20 acres of salt marsh and woodland, the property captures sweeping harbor views while providing a true sense of seclusion. Meandering boardwalks wind through the landscape, leading to a collection of small islands, including one with a tidal dock for direct access to the water—an invitation to fully embrace the coastal lifestyle.
Originally designed by acclaimed architect Sally Weston and thoughtfully renovated, the home showcases timeless craftsmanship paired with modern comfort. A gracious two-story foyer introduces elegant living and dining rooms, each anchored by a fireplace and designed for both intimate gatherings and larger entertaining. The heart of the home is a beautifully appointed kitchen featuring a center island, dedicated baking room, and a charming banquette, all opening seamlessly to a warm family room and light-filled sunroom.
Upstairs, the primary suite serves as a private retreat, complete with a sitting room or office and a spa-like bath with soaking tub. Additional bedrooms, flexible living spaces, and a loft office with a deck overlooking the harbor provide both comfort and versatility. Complementing the main residence, a three-story barn offers endless possibilities—from storage to recreation or creative use—and includes a newly renovated one-bedroom apartment with its own amenities. Tennis and bocce courts further enhance this remarkable property, creating a lifestyle defined by space, serenity, and connection to the water.
