Overview
Description
The Ebenezer Crocker Estate has proudly stood at the head of Cotuit Bay since at least 1793, commanding a stunning view of the Bay and serving variously as the seat of the local court, Post Office, Sea Captain's house, and first summer home in the Village of Cotuit. The entire property underwent a meticulous restoration concluding in 2003 resulting in an artful blend of the elegance of the 18th century with the comfort of the 21st. The main house features a wraparound covered porch with magnificent views over the grounds to Cotuit Bay. A parlor, living room, bedroom and formal dining room are arranged around a central grand foyer. The chef's kitchen occupies its own wing with intimate dining area, full bath, laundry/mud room, and second staircase. An inviting great room completes the first floor. Upstairs are 4 bedrooms, a private study with balcony overlooking the Bay, and sun-filled atrium. The historic Ice House now serves as a fully appointed private guest house. An inground pool with hot tub surrounded by mature plantings and blackberry-lined path to private sandy beach complete the grounds. Truly a magnificent estate.
