A luxury home perched on the edge of a sandy bluff overlooking Cape Cod Bay has been successfully demolished after months of uncertainty. The 5,100-square-foot house was at risk of collapsing into the bay, posing a threat to nearby oyster beds in Wellfleet Harbor.
Local authorities had been in a dispute over the removal of the house, which had left it in a precarious position. However, heavy machinery was brought in on Monday to dismantle the structure piece by piece, with trucks transporting the debris away. By Tuesday, only the concrete slab, chimney, and a generator remained at the site.
