On the Market: Upscale bohemian colonial Cape Cod in Easton

By Meg Barone

  • In the dining room there is a hand-painted ceiling and sliding doors to the covered porch.
It is the home of people who understand and appreciate high fashion and interior design. Perhaps not everyone would share that appreciation. If this home is purchased by someone who does not share the current owners’ taste they could simply paint the walls in neutral tones.
And even if the next owners decided to keep this impeccable home’s décor and color scheme exactly as is, they could still infuse their own personality, furniture and furnishings, building on the existing decor to make it uniquely their own.

  • The formal living room has a wood-burning fireplace.
According to the listing agent, this 2,028-square-foot home “lives large and exudes charm,” and lots of it. Each of its 10 rooms is adorned in a different color and type of wall covering, much of it fabric rather than paper, and textured at that. The artistry continues in the dining room where the ceiling is hand-painted depicting a motif reminiscent of designs found in Tibetan sand mandalas. Yes, this house is not only aesthetically pleasing, it is quite calming as well, and so is the 1.72-acre level property on which this house sits.
The house is hidden from view of passing motorists, sitting behind a scrim of mature trees, and the entire property is bordered by woodlands that create a cocoon of privacy.

  • The light gray colonial Cape Cod at 428 Westport Road in Easton sits on a 1.72-acre level property.
“You feel a million tranquil miles away, but shopping and restaurants are within 10 miles and less,” according to the agent, who underscores the point by providing prospective buyers with a list of local assets and the distance from the house for each. Greiser’s Coffee & Market and the U.S. Post Office are within walking distance only a half mile away. Easton Town Hall, the public library, and Samuel P. Senior Memorial Park is only eight-tenths of a mile away. Just a bit further away are several local farms including Sport Hill, Silverman’s and Sherwood farms.
