HGTV’s 2019 Ultimate House Hunt highlights a few remarkable properties across the region, proving what locals and frequent visitors already know: the Cape with its arresting views, rich history and talented architects is simply one-of-a-kind. 

A restaurant turned waterfront home, a riverside retreat, a boathouse that sits out over the shoreline, and a colonial estate… There’s a reason these Cape homes were chosen by HGTV as some of the ultimate abodes across the nation.

Each year, HGTV selects spectacular home listings across the globe, separating them into eight notable categories. Then, it’s up to the audience to decide which spaces top the list. With such a spectacular coastline and unbelievable landscape and architecture across the region, it’s no wonder that the 2019 finalists included four Cape Cod homes—three in the “Waterfront Homes” category and one in the “Curb Appeal” category: featuring standout properties with front yards and entrances that make these residences show stopping even at a glance.

All four of these astonishing properties, each with their own striking settings, are available through local real estate companies, and, in a true mark of success, a few were even sold before the contest’s completion. Flip through these next few pages to choose your favorite and dive into exactly what makes these properties “ultimate” Cape Cod destinations!
