Named for the SS James Longstreet 'Target Ship' that graced our horizon starting in the 1940s, 'Longstreet Lane' still looks & feels like the Eastham of old, with its sand-covered surface and smattering of original cottages, many of which have been in the same families for generations. Perched on a knoll near the end of the lane?a mere 150-feet from the Bay?48 Longstreet Lane is a spacious 3BR/2.5BA contemporary saltbox that combines a love of place, with a place you're sure to love: just 20-years-old, its holistic design utilizes a reverse floor plan together with its topography to capture peeks of the Bay?south toward Brewster, where the curvature of the Cape is clearly seen, and west toward the setting sun. Its generous 1/2 acre lot offers a surprising degree of privacy in a home this close to water...Upon entering, guests are greeted by a tiled, 16x22 family/sunroom w/9.5-foot ceilings & adjacent full bath w/stall shower & granite vanity. This lovely, light-filled room offers great separation from the upstairs living areas and doubles as a 4th sleeping space, if needed.
