Isaiah Jones Homestead

Cape Cod


There's primo main-street appeal to this Victorian house, with pretty gardens and a fish pond. Inside are five period rooms in the main house, and two in the carriage house. Luxury linens, porch rockers, evening port by the fireplace – this is Sandwich at its cushiest.
