Its iconic landmark the Highland Lighthouse is a local treasure that has been forever immortalized in one of Edward Hopper’s many paintings of the area. And nothing is more regal than the protected beaches of the Cape Cod National Seashore. It’s a stunning landscape that will never cease inspiring awe in the hearts of its lucky residents. Now lets take a look at three properties that could tempt you to live in Truro.
