Stunning waterfront retreat on Swan River with private dock, hot tub & panoramic water views
Welcome to Swan River House — your perfect Cape Cod escape on the banks of Swan River in West Dennis. This spacious waterfront home offers stunning water views from every room and is just 1 mile from South Village Beach. Originally a duplex, the home was thoughtfully renovated and converted into a single-family retreat, giving you the perfect mix of shared spaces and private bedrooms.
Step outside to your private backyard oasis overlooking Swan River. The massive lower-level deck features a dining table with seating for 10, a gas grill, and generous lounge seating around a cozy propane fire pit. Unwind in the 5-person hot tub while taking in panoramic water views — or follow the private pathway down to your own kayak and SUP landing and float all the way to the ocean.
Inside, the chef's kitchen is fully stocked with stainless appliances and a large granite island with seating for four. The home features two separate living rooms — one open to the kitchen with a smart TV, and a second lounge with a fireplace, pool table, and foosball table. Whether you're planning a multi-family vacation or a group getaway, The Baxter House delivers the complete Cape Cod experience.
