Luxury home in Cape Cod faces collapse due to severe erosion

A luxury home in Wellfleet, Cape Cod, is at risk of imminent collapse due to severe erosion. The house, built in 2010, is now just feet from the edge of a bluff, with a report predicting it could fall into the bay within three years. The previous owner attempted to build a seawall to protect the property, but local officials rejected the plan. The house was sold to a salvage company, which has stated it will not fund any removal efforts, leaving the town to monitor the situation. Erosion rates have increased significantly, with bluffs receding up to 5.6 feet annually. Concerns are growing that debris from a potential collapse could harm Wellfleet's oyster beds, a vital local industry.
