Route 6A, commonly known as the Old King’s Highway, has just been named as a National Scenic Byway by the US Department of Transportation. The 34-mile stretch of scenic beauty is one of just four roads to receive the scenic byway distinction in Massachusetts.

Meandering through nine Cape Cod towns, Route 6A offers access to many local shops, restaurants and historic homes. Here are a selection of homes on the market along Route 6A.
