Nunes, Frank and Angelina House

A contributing property in the Waquoit Historic District, listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2004. Settled from about 1700, this semi-rural village at the head of Waquoit Bay in Falmouth developed as a self-sufficient community that combined farming, seafaring, and small-scale manufacturing along a linear corridor centered on Main Street. Its surviving houses, church, and landscapes trace patterns of local and regional coastal settlement, including early Native American associations and, later, ties to Falmouth's Portuguese community. Significant for agriculture, architecture, community planning, and maritime enterprise, the district spans a period of roughly 1700 to 1950, before modern development transformed the town and region.
