Privately set on 2.44 beautifully landscaped acres, 6 Kerna Drive is a distinguished Buzzards Bay estate where grand scale, graceful design, and exceptional versatility come together. A sweeping drive and manicured grounds create a memorable arrival, introducing an approximately 5,054-square-foot residence designed for both elegant entertaining and relaxed coastal living. Inside, soaring cathedral ceilings, skylights, rich hardwood and stone finishes, French doors, crown molding, and abundant natural light lend warmth and drama to the expansive interiors. The custom kitchen is both refined and welcoming, with granite counters, generous cabinetry, a center island, breakfast bar, wet bar, and an easy connection to the home’s open gathering spaces. The fireplaced living/family rooms flow naturally to, porches, patios, and decks, extending everyday life into the surrounding landscape. Four bedrooms and four-and-one-half baths provide impressive comfort and privacy. The spacious primary suite feels like a true retreat, complete with cathedral ceiling, skylights, balcony access, and a beautifully appointed bath. Thoughtful amenities—including a jacuzzi/hot tub, central air, a security system, and a finished walk-out lower level—enhance the home’s resort-like appeal. Outdoors, mature trees frame sweeping lawns, flowering gardens, a gazebo, greenhouse, fenced areas, and professional landscaping illuminated by decorative lighting. Multiple covered and open-air spaces invite summer dining, quiet mornings, and evenings beneath the stars. A separate guest house expands the possibilities for extended stays, a private studio, or work-from-home use, while the heated, three-car garage and abundant parking offer uncommon convenience. Close to public beaches, marinas, golf, conservation trails, shopping, and highway access, this remarkable property offers privacy without isolation. Rare in its combination of acreage, architectural presence, flexible living space, and proximity to the Cape’s coastal pleasures, 6 Kerna Drive represents an outstanding opportunity to enjoy an estate-caliber lifestyle and exceptional value in Buzzards Bay.

Estimates — not financial advice
These figures are illustrative estimates for informational purposes only — not an appraisal, valuation, or guarantee of rent, income, or returns, and not financial, tax, or investment advice. Rent is either the figure reported on the MLS listing — in-place rent that may differ from market and is not verified against the actual leases — or, where the listing reports none, an estimate from HUD Small Area Fair Market Rents, a government benchmark that may differ from actual market rent. Each figure is labelled with its source. Cap rate, NOI, and returns depend on the assumptions shown, which you can change. MLS and other third-party data may be inaccurate or out of date. Verify all figures independently and consult your own financial, tax, and legal advisors before making any investment decision.
