Chatham Condos
Overview
With its striking Cape Cod scenery and charming downtown, this town is made up of a series of villages which are heavily residential. Accessible both by a small airport and several major transportation routes, the area has long been a recreational haven for out of towners. The town’s population tends to increase during the temperate months and decrease during the winter. This affects the design of many of the condos, which are frequently located near the coastline and usually feature ample amounts of outdoor space for entertaining and enjoyment of the environment. The average purchase price for a unit here is $400 a square foot, and monthly association fees typically range between $350 and $500. Most of the residences were built after 1980, although there are a substantial number of structures built before 1950 that have been beautifully renovated with luxurious, contemporary finishes. Listings tend to find buyers within only two weeks of being placed on the market.

Inside the Market
Because of the geography of this town, most of the residential units have an excellent view or are sited within close range of the seashore. Large banks of windows, often stretching from the floor to ceiling, are common in this town. Many units are oriented so that a balcony or exterior deck faces the ocean. A series of sliding glass doors function both as an access point to the exterior deck and as a way to let in more light to the unit. Depending on whether the unit is a stand alone dwelling on its own lot or is part of a much larger complex, shared spaces such as fitness centers, reading lounges, and courtyards may be located within the complex. These larger complexes tend to cluster the units around the shared spaces, taking care to orient individual units to look out on the surrounding scenery.
The interiors typically feature a white or beige decor scheme to compliment the silvery light reflected from the water. Recessed lighting is common, as are open floor plans that allow a resident to see the length of the unit without having their sightlines interuppted by walls. In some units, a balance between complete openness and enclosed rooms has been struck by artfully punching out spaces in intervening walls. A kitchen, for example, might have a large rectangular opening over the sink that looks out onto the living room, or the dining area might have a series of openings in the wall that can double as display spaces for plants or other art objects. Carpeting is often used in these residences, although hardwood floors frequently are underfoot, especially in the living area and kitchen. Some residences play up the nautical theme of the area by installing panel doors that can be opened by sliding them into the adjacent wall. These interiors resemble a picture that has been framed, with the frame being represented by the overlapping interior walls.
While it does not have any plans to transition into a full-blown metropolis any time soon, the town of Chatham does welcome steady growth, especially of projects that match the existing aesthetics of the city. With its multi-story brick buildings and pedestrian-friendly downtown, the city has a fairly thriving business district that is a draw for visitors and residents alike. Those who do purchase property in this region will likely see a significant appreciation in their dwellings within only a few years. This rapid appreciation is due both the slow growth policies of the city and the housing pressures of the larger geographical region. Additionally, the sheer desirability of Cape Cod virtually guarantees a constant interest in property in this area. The combination of luxury and easy access to nature makes this a particularly valuable area for investors.
