17 Church St, Yarmouth MA 02675,Yarmouth,Residential

Nestled in a magical cottage garden, this extraordinary property blends history, artistry, and architectural authenticity. Originally built in 1836 as a church, the structure is an exquisite example of Gothic Revival architecture. The addition of an ell in 1934 introduced a thoughtfully-designed kitchen where vintage features meet updated appliances. Also included in the ell are three beautifully-appointed bedrooms, each with its own private bath. The dining/sitting area, with its two-story exquisite window, serves as an awe-inspiring gathering space. Previous owners, the renowned set designers Herbert Senn and Helen Pond, infused the home with their remarkable trompe-l’oeil artistry. The current owners have been devoted custodians of this rare gem, carefully restoring its historical elements while thoughtfully incorporating modern amenities. A list of updates is available, showcasing the care taken to preserve the home’s legacy while enhancing its livability for today’s lifestyle.
