Hot Property: Salute this Orleans compound

Everything — and we mean everything — you could ever want in a Cape compound can be found on the sprawling, 10.1 acres of 87 Beach Road in Orleans.

The ultra-luxe retreat enjoys a prime location just moments from Nauset Beach and the town center while retaining a private, resort-like tranquility. The nearly 8,000-square-foot main house and its attendant guest house are completely turnkey, offered fully furnished, with a historic Americana decor scheme.

Imagine what Ralph Lauren’s Cape digs might look like and you’d come pretty close.

With significant acreage comes significant amenities, and the property doesn’t disappoint. In addition to the guest house, an artist’s studio, a four-stall barn and a greenhouse, the grounds are dotted with trails, an orchard, blooming English gardens and a serene pond.

Between them, courts for tennis and sand volleyball, a basketball hoop, a heated pool and, of course, a pool house.

Inside the main residence, it’s all about upscale ease that’s as comfortable for intimate family evenings as it is for entertaining a crowd. Soaring, double-height ceilings and oversized windows add dramatic scale to the living room, while the fireplace and built-ins keep things cozy. A library, wood-paneled with coffered ceilings, and a family room with its own wet bar are complemented by a massive gourmet kitchen and wine cellar.

Inclement weather? No problem. Hunker down in the property’s game room, kitted out with a home theater, bowling alley, gym, and sauna.

And, since you have to sleep sometime, seven bedrooms — including two primary suites — complete the main house, each with an en-suite bath.

The estate is on the market for $14,899,000, and is represented by Victoria Rong Kennedy of The Corcoran Group and Jennifer Holmes of Beach Road Properties.
