Property Description
Nestled in South Truro, this lovely two-bedroom Cape is a treasure trove of artistic heritage. Originally built by the renowned painter, photographer, and Social Realist movement spearhead Ben Shahn, this residence is imbued with a rich artistic legacy. Captured through the lens of Walker Evans, a close friend of Ben, the house exudes an air of artistic importance. It later served as the home of Judith Shahn, a painter and lithographer, and her spouse, Pulitzer Prize-winning poet Alan Dugan. Upon entering, you're greeted by a cozy living room, complete with a welcoming wood-burning fireplace. The adjacent dining room, also featuring a fireplace, seamlessly connects to a bright, well-appointed kitchen and an inviting screened-in porch. The property holds the potential of water views, achievable with the addition of a second-story deck. Adding to the allure of this property is an art studio, a space that resonates with the history and creative spirit of the illustrious artists who have lived in or visited this charming home.
