Powder Point, Duxbury

Managing Real Estate Broker with Brad MacKenzie

82 Powder Point, DuxburyA peninsula ringed by King Caesar Road and Powder Point Road, with homes along the shoreline and the upland interior, Powder Point, Duxbury, presents an exquisite, classic, traditional New England waterfront on which to live the Duxbury lifestyle. Mature trees surround the majestic, genteel homes that inhabit the quiet nooks overlooking the water. Private docks extend into the bay from three sides of the headland. Even in the gray overcast of a rainy early spring day, the point displays its charm with dignity and grace.

 At the end lies the Gurnet Bridge, leading from Powder Point to the Duxbury Beach. Joggers, cyclists, walkers and strollers find their own pace down the tree-lined road to the wooden bridge.

The 4th of July brings a parade to the beach.

Beach stickers give families access to the seven-mile strand of sand that juts out into the Atlantic Ocean and forms a protective wall along the eastern edge of Duxbury Bay.

The view from King Caesar Road, across the Bluefish Inlet, is just as scenic, even in the misty gray light of an overcast spring day.

Many of the homes on Powder Point are barely visible, if at all, from the road. The ones that are stand as proud ambassadors of their provenance.

Hi Brad -- what a beautiful picture you paint of Powder Point, Duxbury -- almost like a travel advertisement enticing visitors to come and eventually stay.   Very nicely presented.

Hi Michael!  Yes, indeed, and many people do come and stay! 

Hey Renee.  It does, and they are spectacular. Of course, when we need a break from the New England weather, we fly out to your city in the desert!
