The Hatch House - Cape Cod Modern House Tour

Join us for a Cape Cod Modern House Tour showcasing the iconic Hatch House and if time allows we will visit the Weidlinger House too. The Hatch House was designed by Jack Hall in 1960 for Robert Hatch, an editor of The Nation and his wife Ruth, a painter. The family occupied the cottage until 2008 when ownership reverted to the National Park Service. CCMHT received a lease in 2012 and finished restoration in spring 2013. All the original furniture and artwork has been re-installed by the Hatch family. It’s hard to describe the setting of the Hatch House, with its panoramic view of the bay, perched on the edge of a kettle hole, with a vernal pool below, and its untrammeled west-facing hillside which takes in the sunset over the water.
Registration with the Wellfleet Adult Community Center is required and priority will be given to Wellfleet residents/taxpayers first. Thank you for your understanding! Cost is $5.00.
Sponsored by the Friends of the Wellfleet Council on Aging. Please call 508-349-2800 to register.

The tour starts at the Wellfleet Adult Community Center, where we will board COA vans and travel as a group. It highlights the Trust’s mission to preserve these architectural gems while fostering creative and scholarly work, making it a must for architecture enthusiasts and Cape Cod lovers alike. Visit www.ccmht.org for more information about the CCMHT's mission to save these wonderful homes.

Please note, due to the long uphill walk to reach the Hatch House and the rustic nature of the CCMHT properties, we must let you know they are not handicapped accessible and can prove challenging for those with mobility restrictions.
