From the street, this house is a pleasing, rambling Cape with a long farmer’s porch and a smattering of dormers. Yet at the rear of the house is a Victorian-like tower that has on each of its three levels an alcove with bay windows that look onto the peaceful North River. The master suite has a massive bedroom space, large closets, skylights, and a private deck with river views.
The house sits in the center of the 1.38 acre lot, with large flat lawn out front and a large backyard that slopes gently to the river. A path leads through towering trees to a long wooden dock floating in the river.
