A quiet home base for enjoying Mashpee attractions

Surrounded on all sides by rivers, marshes and pine barrens, the Seabrook neighborhood of Mashpee is a peaceful setting for enjoying life on Cape Cod. Though the nearby conservation areas offer hiking trails where nature lovers can hope to spot rabbits and migratory birds, people also spend their days exploring other areas of Mashpee. “You’re smack dab in the middle of things,” says Connor Gillen, Realtor with Keller Williams Realty Boston Southwest, who has summered in the area since he was a child. “You’re not far from the beach and golf courses in New Seabury, and the family-friendly activities and shopping in Mashpee Commons are also nearby.” Along the curving residential streets of the community, tall pines and mature rhododendron bushes line the way to cul-de-sacs. Behind them, driveways lead to wood-sided Cape Cods and Colonial Revivals from the late 1900s and early 2000s.

Hiking through pine barrens and swimming in the Nantucket Sound

The town of Mashpee is home to more than 5,000 acres of conservation land, much of which borders Seabrook. Trail runners and birders can start their day on the Pine Barrens Trail, which begins just north of the community. The trail passes through white cedar swamps and is home to several bird species, as well as whitetail deer, red foxes and New England cottontail rabbits. The nearest beaches are Mashpee Town Beach and Callie’s Beach, both around 4 miles away. The town beach borders the Nantucket and Vineyard Sound, while Callie’s lies along the calmer waters of Waquoit Bay. Waquoit is also a popular destination for trying — or watching — windsurfing due to its steady winds. Kayakers can launch their boats from Callie’s Beach, or from the Mashpee Pond beach at Attaquin Park, around 6 miles north. “It’s a popular area for playing golf,” Gillen says. Golfers can opt for the waterfront courses at New Seabury Country Club, about 3 miles away, and the tree-lined 18-hole course at the Quashnet Valley Country Club, just under 5 miles north. The Mashpee Recreation Department also organizes outdoor recreation for all ages, including swimming and stand-up paddleboard lessons at Attaquin Park, clamming classes on Seconsett Island and pickleball competitions. On rainy days, parents can take their kids to the Cape Cod Children’s Museum, around 2 miles east, which has interactive cape-themed exhibits.

Traditional cape-style homes in Seabrook

The compact neighborhood is divided into three distinct sections: Seabrook Village, the southern portion, which borders Hamblin Pond, and a small enclave along Wintergreen Road. Development for all of them began back in the 1970s and though some original homes remain, many have been updated or added onto to suit modern-day tastes. Architectural styles are “fairly traditional — it’s a mix of cottages and Cape Cods that have been updated and some Colonial Revivals,” Gillen says. Two- and three-bedroom Cape Cod-style residences set back from the water list in the mid-to-upper $600,000s, while four-bedroom capes with views of the pond usually run from $1.1 million to $2.3 million. Owners are responsible for maintaining their own septic systems. With several marshes and bodies of water nearby, some of the properties lie in flood zones. Those who purchase homes in flood-prone areas may be required to adhere to stricter housing codes and purchase additional flood insurance.
