About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Historic colonial, a short walk to downtown and the beaches!

This historic home has modern amenities coupled with original flooring and exposed beams from the 1800s. The kitchen is fully equipped with all the gadgets you might need, and the rest of the house is furnished in a way that will make you feel right at home! The backyard features 2 decks and an outdoor shower, and is fully fenced in with latching gates, creating a private oasis. It is walking distance to downtown shopping, restaurants, and the beaches!

Be aware that the upstairs has low ceilings, just under 7 ft, with a vaulted ceiling in the master bedroom and bath. The basement is not finished but has an additional seating area with a smart TV, game area, and laundry station.

Seasonally, you can enjoy yard games such as cornhole and badmitton, or lay back in the hammock and relax. There are 2 kayaks available upon request, but you must have a way to transport them to the launch area (less than a mile away).

Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy
The home was exceedingly clean and comfortable, and had everything we needed. It was clear the owners have worked hard to create an atmosphere of welcome and a place where all can gather without difficlty. It was close to town and they left menus and other info on local eateries and amenities in the area.
