WATCH: Demolition of Controversial Wellfleet Home Facing Erosion Threat

The Wellfleet luxury home that made national headlines as erosion brought it closer and closer to falling into the sea has been demolished. 

Experts said that it would likely have collapsed in the next 3 years, potentially damaging local oyster beds and nearby beaches with debris.

Dispute between the owner and the town over the home’s removal has been ongoing, but excavators arrived to demolish the house this week under the responsibility of the owner.
