The
Sur Mer property, Chatham, Massachusetts is in for some
changes, since the current house is too small for the owner's needs. The property includes a windmill - one of a number on
Cape Cod which have been moved around, and this is notable both for its shoreline location, and also for the wildflower meadow
which was planted around 20 years ago leading up to the mill.
The outline plans are to move the current (historic) house off the property, and to replace it with a larger (better insulated) one
more suited to year round occupation on this exposed spot, but negotiations are ongoing with the towns Historical Commission who
would like to keep the existing house on the property.
