In a real estate Love Story of sorts, Taylor Swift’s former seaside estate at 27 Marchant Avenue in Hyannis Port, represented by Robert B. Kinlin of Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices Robert Paul Properties has officially sold, setting the record for the highest residential sale on Cape Cod so far this year.

The Sale: It’s Been a Long Time Coming

Swift reportedly purchased the property in 2012, during her high-profile summer romance with Conor Kennedy—yes, of that Kennedy family. Although she sold the property in 2013 for nearly $5.7 million, earning a tidy profit of around $870,000 after reportedly purchasing it for $4.8 million just a few months earlier, the house recently re-entered the market. Now, it’s been passed on to a new owner. According to local reports, the most recent sale was a swift one (pun fully intended), with buyers eager to snag a piece of pop culture history, with the property selling for an impressive $12,300,000. 

“This home was the perfect balance of refined architecture and seaside living—clean lines and a timeless sense of proportion that just made it feel effortless and inviting,” said Kinlin. “It was a privilege to market such a remarkable property and assist in bringing it to a successful close,” he added. The sale further solidifies Kinlin’s reputation in the industry. Recently named to the prestigious RealTrends America’s Best Real Estate Professionals list, Kinlin ranks in the top 1.5% of agents nationwide, underscoring his consistent excellence and leadership in the luxury sector.

“We take great pride in the level of service, market knowledge, and discretion our agents provide,” said Emily Clark, President of Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices Robert Paul Properties. “This sale is a reflection of our continued commitment to excellence in the luxury sector and the trust our clients place in us to represent some of the region’s most extraordinary homes.”

A House That Never Goes Out of Style

Perched elegantly above Nantucket Sound in one of Cape Cod’s most prestigious neighborhoods, the property captivated buyers with its breathtaking ocean views, and gained additional attention this summer when it was featured on WCVB’s Chronicle, highlighting its rich past.

The residence is perfectly positioned on an elevated 1.11-acre bluff, offering 200 feet of private sandy beach. With direct sightlines to the famed Kennedy Compound, this seven-bedroom home was a rare find. The property had been transformed into a modern coastal haven that is both sophisticated and relaxed—visitors instantly feel Enchanted by its elegant yet effortless atmosphere. Every room across the more than 5,000 square feet of living space was designed to capture natural light. Whitewashed plank walls, exposed beams, and wide windows create a breezy elegance, while refined finishes and rustic touches bring warmth and authenticity throughout. 

The home’s main living room offers an airy gathering space with oversized windows framing uninterrupted ocean views, anchored by a striking fireplace for cozy coastal nights. Adjacent is a gracious dining room ideal for hosting up to 12 guests with understated coastal sophistication. The chef’s kitchen is a showpiece in itself, featuring a large center island, top-tier appliances, and custom cabinetry that combines relaxed beach sensibility with refined elegance. For the new owners, it’s a place that will truly let them Shake It Off and unwind by the sea.
