Property Description for 647 Blue Rocks Road

This beautiful home boasts a rare combination of historic features and modern amenities. Preserved features include random width, wide plank hardwood floors and exposed beams. A painstaking 5-year top-to-bottom restoration was completed in 2012. Features of modern living include 400 amp electric, a multi-zoned, hot water radiant heating system with thermostats in all rooms, all new plumbing, new windows and insulation, metal roof, and full walkout basement with concrete floors and radiant heat. All appliances were purchased in 2021. Beautiful property with a professionally landscaped array of wildflowers, assorted shrubs, grasses and trees. The exterior was repainted in June 2025. The side deck was completely rebuilt in 2024, and the main deck was updated with new front and side steps in 2025. The interior of this 260-year-old farmhouse is flooded with brilliant natural light thanks to its perfect southerly aspect elevated above the road and facing the Atlantic Ocean across tidal marshes. Windows on all sides ensure summer breezes and plenty of sunshine. Enjoy the main living area with primary bedroom and recently renovated ensuite tucked privately into the back corner of the house. Next to the primary bedroom, there is a large room with French doors opening to a side deck and gardens, currently used as a music room, but with endless possibilities. The main floor also boasts a pretty country kitchen open to a large dining area with wood-burning fireplace. Adjoining is a sunny living room and a handy main floor laundry room with half bath and closet. Two sets of staircases lead to the spacious upper floor, where you will find four rooms, a "Lunenburg Bump" sitting area overlooking the ocean, and a large full bathroom complete with a luxurious claw-foot soaking tub. A unique feature about this great home is the "Heritage Wall", an exposed section of the original exterior wall in the living room showing builder's markings and a shadow box with information.
