The pumpkin spice lattes are out. The Halloween commercials are coming. But you don’t really want to let go of beach days just yet, do you? Fear not: There’s still a chance to buy your dream beach house in the form of this Brewster home right on the water. A long private staircase leads you right down to the shores of Brewster Flat Beach, where you can enjoy the lapping of the waves and gorgeous sunsets, but you can also enjoy the beauty of the water as it gets cold right from the warm comfort of this luxury house.

While this home was originally built in 1958, the structure was moved to a neighboring lot and completely renovated only last year. Both the interior and exterior of this shingled single-family have been totally refreshed, from the crushed stone driveway to the light-washed woods and blue and white kitchen cabinets, which bring an elevated feel to this beachside escape. This feeling of luxury is also evident in the amenities found throughout the home. A large living room has its own gas fireplace to keep you warm on a chilly fall evening. The primary bedroom suite boasts the same gas fireplace, perfect for a cozy, intimate evening inside.

This home has also been updated to include a top-of-the-line kitchen outfitted with granite countertops, sustainable CORETec flooring, stainless steel appliances, and a gas range. In addition to the primary bedroom suite, the second story of this home has a second bedroom and full bathroom, perfect for guests or office space. Of course, you could also work downstairs—the first floor office nook has built-in shelves.

But lest you forget you’re right on the water, this home’s decks will remind you otherwise. And in addition to these private outdoor living spaces, you’ll also have an abundance of oceanfront views thanks to a wall of windows on the first floor. It’ll be hard to work at your desk or watch a movie in the living room with the views of Cape Cod Bay right outside your door. While sunsets may be getting earlier and earlier, you won’t dread the encroaching winter: You can take it all in (without being subjected to the chilly winds) right from the comfort of your own home.
