Brewster home for sale: Lovely antique on 1.4 acres at $699K Eric Williams Cape Cod Times Published 4:53 a.m. ET Oct. 31, 2022 BREWSTER — A drive along Tubman Road is a pleasant journey back in time. Lovely old homes and stone walls dot the landscape and you find yourself slowing down and taking it all in. There's a pleasant historic vibe and you wouldn't be surprised to encounter a horse and wagon clip-clopping to market. That's where you'll find the Old Glory Homestead, a charming antique home, now on the market for $699,000. According to co-listing agent Jan Rodrigues of the Kinlin Grover Compass Cape Cod Retirement Realty team, the exact date the house was built is lost to history because of the infamous Barnstable Court fire of 1827 that destroyed 93 volumes of land records.

"It's very authentic," said Rodrigues. "The property is enchanting." The home features three bedrooms and one bathroom with a delightful clawfoot tub. On the first floor, a formal parlor and a large den are graced with wide pine plank flooring, original crown moldings, built-in cupboards, wood-paneled walls and 10/31/22, 10:54 PM Brewster antique home sits on 1.4 acres, has fireplaces, wood floors https://www.capecodtimes.com/story/business/2022/10/31/157-tubman-road-brewster-house-for-sale-cape-cod-real-estate/69593052007/ 2/3 fireplaces. The formal dining room has oak floors and an amazing fireplace with stove insert and the original beehive brick oven. The bedrooms are located upstairs and the historic charm continues, with painted wood floors and vaulted wood ceilings. There is also a large amount of storage space, which can sometimes be in short supply in antique homes. Outside the home, you'll be blown away by the 1.4-acre property, with a large level yard that features lots of perennial plantings and mature trees. You'll also find a splendid barn and another outbuilding that could be used as a workshop or potting shed.

Updates include a new three-bedroom septic system, whole house insulation and a double-walled oil tank. "Everything about the house is functional," Rodrigues said.
