South Truro MA
8 Aunt Marys Rd South Truro MA 02666Property Description
A rare find on the outer Cape: pond property, with a classic Colonial house on a large parcel within The Cape Cod National Seashore. The house was built in 1790 by the Ryder family, ship builders who constructed many of the early fishing vessels. The master craftsmanship is evident in the exquisite paneling and mantel work; the original wide plank flooring is in place, along with 5 fireplaces and two Dutch Ovens. Outside, open fields are bordered by the Park's forest, insuring privacy. A garderner's delight - roses and trumpet vines trail along the split rail fences. Flower beds await the green-thumber's skill to lend color to outside activities. A low-lying strip of land was the swamp garden, so named because its summer moisture provided the food crops. The great swimming pond - Ryder Pond, of course - forms the Northern boundary.
