'House by the Sea' is a rare 1915 oceanfront home with incomparable Hawaii-like views, and a sugar-sand beach. There are stairs from our land to the beach. This wonderful home has been carefully and captivatingly renovated in a yesteryear charm enhanced by the surroundings of a neighborhood of vintage and antique homes with verdant lawns and gardens.
House by the Sea offers luxury amenities while preserving the "Old Cape Cod" ambiance so appreciated by our guests. Modern amenities like the Sub Zero refrigerator, 6-burner 4-oven English Aga cooker, and central air conditioning and so much more all make this home idyllic, comfortable, and ideal for unforgettable family vacations. Screened oceanfront dining porch, plus an expansive seaside porch wrapping around two more sides of the home with rocking chairs looking out to sea. Soothing sounds of the surf while you check email w Wi-Fi on the lawn, looking over colorful Adirondack chairs on the lawn. arranged around the oceanfront fire pit.
This amazing house has 5 bedrooms (all with ocean views) 3 bathrooms. House by the Sea is decorated in restrained Nantucket style. Its oceanfront living room has a gas fireplace, wainscotting, beams, paintings, and books. The living room opens to the beamed dining room with ocean views and charming Oceanview bay window seats. There is something special about seeing the ocean surf, bluffs, and beach through 100-year-old wavy glass.
Wine/coffee pantry has wine glasses, Keurig coffee maker +automatic drip (Mr Coffee)+ French Press, stainless-steel 2-drawer drinks refrigerator. The well-equipped kitchen has the iconic Aga cooker (4 ovens, 6 burners, custom paneled exhaust hood), 36" stainless steel Sub Zero refrigerator, and honed granite countertops. Ample quality cookware, dishes, flatware, small appliances, glassware, table linens, kitchen linens, spices, condiments, paper goods, and laundry supplies.
There is a gravel patio with a Weber gas grill and teak English patio benches umbrella and chairs. Adirondack chairs line up on the lawn, where you can watch a sunrise over coffee or catch a glimpse of the big dipper on a mild summer night. You would think that all East Coast oceanfront homes have dramatic moon rises and sun rises, but not so… you have to be in the right spot, facing the right way, to get these glorious spectacles of nature. This is the spot.
You'll enjoy four private couples bedrooms 1) a queen, 2) another queen, 3) a full/double, 4) a king made of 2 singles (we can't get a king mattress up the stairs), and 5) a loft with a bunkbed.
The first-floor full shower-bathroom has a step-up (it's an antique house) and contains a 4-foot shower plus the laundry stacking washer dryer. The second floor has two bathrooms. One has a subway tile shower with octagon tile floor and replica antique plumbing with Antique-style exposed thermostatic valve. The other bathroom, newly renovated, has a shower, and pedestal sink.
From the vantage of House by the Sea, the arc of beach and bluff looks like a scene from Hawaii. There are 100 steps down to the beach, two landings with catch-your-breath built-in benches. On July 3, with magnificent fireworks rising from the beach, this is possibly the most spectacular place to be within 2,000 miles.
32+ nights are completely TAX EXEMPT. We welcome the 32 night rentals to lock in those valuable dates first, and then welcome the shorter stays to dovetail around the longer. We continue to allow a minimum of 2 days between families to high level cleaning, sanitizing, staging and provisioning for the comfort and safety of our guests and helpers. (This means your week/weeks might not begin on a weekend.)
