Home of the Week: Mattapoisett estate has it all... and what a view

Ever dreamed of owning your own estate with spectacular harbor views, lush sprawling lawns, and an indoor heated pool? If so, then take a look at this week’s Home of the Week, located near Ned’s Point in Mattapoisett.

Set on more than a acre and a half of prime real estate that stretches all the way to the waters of Mattapoisett Harbor, this spacious three-bedroom, Cape-style home was originally built in 1985 for businessman and philanthropist Dick Young, the CEO of the prestigious Titleist Golf Company — with leisure and comfort in mind.

The home packs an incredible amount of features you won’t find in many of homes of its ilk. Every window on the west side of the home offers grand views of the harbor, so no matter where you are inside, you can enjoy what nature has to offer outside.

As you make your way up the wide driveway leading to the attached two-car garage and enter the front door, you will at once notice the warmth and comfort the home exudes. The foyer features closets to your left and right, hardwood flooring, a half bath, and a stylish chandelier to illuminate your way inside.

The living room to your immediate right has the charm and feel of older homes with hardwood floors and a large fireplace to keep yourself warm during the harsh New England winters.

To compliment the living room, the family room creates a different type of atmosphere, reminiscent of studies from mansions. The hardwood floors and solid wood wainscot walls perfectly augments the second fireplace in the home. The room has large windows facing the harbor, warm-toned painted walls, and recessed bookcases and shelves.

During the holidays, you’ll be having family and friends over for merriment, and what a way to hold a feast than in the formal dining room. Designed with regality in mind, the room includes hardwood floors, stylish wall sconces, and windows that create a fantastic aura for your dining experience.

To whip up such feasts, the kitchen is equipped with modest amenities but doesn’t sacrifice space. The kitchen includes an area for a small dinette set and access to the garage, the attic, and a screened-in sun porch with great views of the water.

As day turns to night, you will be retreating to the spacious master bedroom suite. The bedroom features wall-to-wall carpeting and room for plenty of furniture and that king-sized bed. The bedroom also has a full bathroom with a double vanity sink with a shower-tub combination and ceramic tiled flooring.

The remaining two bedrooms also share the same qualities as the master bedroom with wall-to-wall carpeting, closets, and windows although one of the two bedrooms also includes a full bathroom as well.

If you are looking for more storage, or to increase your living space, both the attic and basement hold many possibilities. Both areas have tremendous amount of space to work with. The basement is an ideal area for a workshop.

For your recreational lifestyle, the property includes a shared 220-foot stone pier with deep-water access. So if you want to go sailing on a whim, you can with ease. There is also a tennis court and an indoor heated pool as well.

The home also includes central air conditioning, access to walking and jogging trails, a bike path, conservation area, and beaches.
