Old Cape Cod at its best: 87 Seventh Ave. in Barnstable listed for $1.1 million
The home at 87 Seventh Ave. in Barnstable is old Cape Cod at its best, according to listing agent Sandra Milano.
“It’s a really special spot,” she said.
Built in 1951, this three-bedroom, two-bath house is listed for $1.1 million. It’s been in the same family since 1977, Milano said, and they have taken great care maintaining the home.
On the first floor, potential buyers will find a kitchen that opens up into a spacious four-season room with access to the deck, which then leads into a small library, complete with floor-to-ceiling shelves and a sliding ladder. Rounding out the first floor are two bedrooms, a laundry room and a full bathroom.
Upstairs is a large loft area that leads to the primary bedroom with a private bathroom and gorgeous water views.
The neighborhood is where this house really shines, according to Milano.
“The avenues are really special, and this is a neighborhood where homes have been in families for generations,” she said. “These homes don’t flip every five to seven years. People buy these houses and they stay there and make memories with their kids and grandkids, and then their grandkids will do the same with their kids.”

As a part of the Seaside Park Community, future owners will enjoy access to a nearby private beach as well, further adding to the neighborhood’s appeal.
“What buyers are looking for is something they can move into,” Milano said. “If someone bought this house this weekend, they could move in by the 4th of July. And they wouldn’t need to go anywhere, because it’s so well placed.”
