The world is your oyster in this townhouse-style Hyannis condo – Cape Cod Times

By Marina Davalos| Contributing writer

HYANNIS If youve wondered what the condos at 615 Main St. are like you know, the site of the former West End Marketplace and the infamous Guido Murphys, now home of the Seaside Pub on Main and the Cape Cod Harley-Davidson retail store read on.

The front entrance on Main Street takes you into a secure lobby, from where youll be buzzed in via an intercom system. You go up a flight of stairs, and a long, hotel-like hallway leads past entrances to 12 units. This weeks House Hunt is number 11, doorway to the right, and thus all units on this side are, as an old radio commercial from the '80s used to jokingly say,overlooking the beautiful Dunkin Donuts parking lot.

That said, this is perhaps the most happening spot in Hyannis.

Spotlight on the condo: you step into a wonderfully open floor plan, bathroom and laundry to the left, kitchen to the right. The kitchen is done in granite countertops with a bar/breakfast nook. White Shaker cabinetry pops with brushed nickel hardware, and chic industrial-look pendant lights hang overhead. These touches create an instant upscale vibe when you walk in.

The living space is all open, with hardwood floors and lots of windows that bring in the light. A sliding glass door off the open dining arealeads to a huge deck. This is the end unit, so revel in the fact that it has perhaps the most space, as this deck stretches the length of the building, and each unit on this side boasts a shared portion of the deck. Theres lots of history here this is the same deck that was once the upstairs at Guidos, where after a day of sun at the beach, locals and visitors would come for happy hour, totally happening, with guys on guitar playing tunes like "Brown Eyed Girl" and "American Pie."

Did we mention the townhouse style of this condo? From the dining area, a flight of stairs leads you up to the two bedrooms, which share a bath. This condo is so surprisingly spacious, comfortable and well appointed, its no wonder the owner has loved living here. While youre right in the heart of downtown Hyannis, being in here makes you feel like youre away from it all the best of both worlds.
