About this property

Luxury Home for 1 or 2 Families-Safe and Secluded-AMAZING OUTDOOR LIVING

This spacious, upscale home is ideal for summer vacations, family reunions, anniversaries, golf outings, fall weekends, or special events. Nestled within a quaint village by the sea, our 3200 square foot ten room home (sleeps 10) is situated in a very private setting on three acres of beautifully landscaped grounds with no other houses in sight! A long driveway and three car garage provide plenty of room for boaters with a trailer. The property borders on conservation land with hiking trails. Within a mile of Barnstable Village and a mile and a half to the harbor, this secluded get away offers the best of indoor and outdoor living.

This fabulous location is convenient to all the Cape has to offer. Your beach pass sticker allows access and parking at 10 beaches, 4 ponds and 1 lake-all within 15 minutes. Walk to the Village for morning coffee at Nirvana, provisions at Barnstable Market, or breakfast at the Blue Plate Diner. Afterwards, its a short walk to Barnstable Harbor with boat launch and Millway Beach. Relax on the beach or choose between deep sea fishing or a Whale Watch. Several golf courses are nearby, and bike paths and hiking trails are right out your back door.

Our house features three different outdoor living areas including a deck with a dining table and gas grill, a stone patio with Adirondack chairs, and a unique must-see outdoor living room which has couches, a dining area and a brick fireplace — the perfect spot day and night for coffee, reading, conversation, browsing the web, cocktails and hors d'oeuvres.

The expansive back yard is great for outdoor family games and activities of all kinds: volleyball, croquet, corn hole, whiffle ball, badminton, etc. Or, just lie back and relax in the hammock or swing. And don’t forget about the outdoor shower… such a plus!

Inside, enjoy the sun splashed open floor plan. Prepare your meals in a true chef's kitchen with a Viking stove and oven, oversized refrigerator/freezer, granite countertops and lots of prep space. This special kitchen has brick floors, a wood beamed ceiling and bar seating for three.

The dining room also features brick floors, exposed wooden beams, a beautiful view of the property, skylights, gas fireplace, and a custom oak farmhouse table seating up to twelve for memorable family meals. A large living room offers a fantastic gathering place with two couches, chairs, huge flat screen TV with cable and DVD for movies. A great place for family board games, puzzles or just hanging out.

In the den, there is a large cathedral ceiling and exposed wooden beams with a comfy leather couch to enjoy reading, relaxing and conversation. A large Apple computer with high speed wireless internet access is available for your use.

A private hallway leads to a spacious first floor master suite with lavish bathroom containing two sinks, a shower, private toilet and state of the art walk in closet. The master also has TV with cable and sliders which open to a beautiful outdoor deck.

On the second floor are two large bedrooms with a Jack and Jill bathroom in between. One bedroom has a queen bed with skylights and large closet. The other bedroom has a double bed, bunk beds, skylights and closet. There is also a large loft with cable TV and queen pullout sofa--a great place for games and movies.

The house is equipped with Central AC, HE front loader washer and dryer, linens/beach towels and beach chairs are included.

Take a short drive to Hyannis for ''big city life,'' Historic Hyannis Waterfront, ferries to Martha's Vineyard and Nantucket Islands, top-name musical acts at the Melody Tent, Cape Cod League baseball games, the Kennedy Museum, tours and samplings at Cape Cod Beer Brewery, tours at the Cape Cod Potato Chip factory, or, just enjoy antiquing along historic Route 6A. At night, travel a short distance for outstanding casual or fine dining options in Barnstable, Osterville, Hyannis or Yarmouthport. The larger shops, movie theaters, food stores, and ships to Nantucket and Martha's Vineyard are all close by.

Loved the Outdoor Space!

This property sits on three acres in a quiet neighbor, just a short walk into the village of Barnstable. Never felt secluded but always private. The house is decorated in a combination of beach comfort, unique furniture, and playful artwork. The master is generous in size in a private wing on the first floor. Bedrooms upstairs are cozy and bright with a jack and jill bathroom. Den area upstairs provides additional space with games to play and a tv. Perfect for kids! Lots of gathering places on the first floor which was most welcome when we had two days of rain. The outdoor living room is my favorite; the fireplace and sofa make it a unique place to visit with friends and family. The kitchen is well stocked and the beautiful dining room encouraged us to eat at home. The best part of this house is that it welcomes guests and is set up to make one feel at home. Not overly personal as if you're in someone's actual year round house. A few plastic dishes in the kitchen would be welcome; easier to navigate all the outdoor spaces with! Also enjoyed Millway Beach on the bay not far from the house, and the small pond/lake nearby that offers a sand beach and easy entry into the water. Hoping to bring kayaks next year to enjoy!

Website DOES NOT Capture How Amazing This Home Actually Is!!!

My title says it all really.. I have rented homes through VBRO about a half dozen times now, and usually the houses are great, but never exactly what you think seeing their listings. However, this house was exponentially better then expected when we drove up the house first, and then continued when we entered the home. We were all blown away & extremely impressed! My kids are getting older, so getting the whole family away together may not happen as often, so I wanted to try and make this year special. This house DEFINITELY made that happen for us and we thoroughly enjoyed this beautiful home. The house was spotless & beautifully decorated. Its located in a very quite, picturesque neighborhood, and has a huge, perfectly maintained, AMAZING yard which added so much to the vacation. We played volleyball, badminton, and Corn hole Daily which added so much fun & family bonding. We had access to 11 different spectacular area beaches with the house as well, but we found our favorites before we even got 1/2 way through the list! The owners were easily accessible, extremely responsive and helpful through out the entire process. So I wanted to give A BIG THANK YOU to he owners, Karen & David, for the amazing home for our vacation. We hope to return to your beautiful home again in the near future! Thank you for making this vacation as special as I had hoped, and then some!!

The perfect getaway!

Wonderful property, and beautiful house in a great location. Spent a week here with our family of seven, and everything was amazing! It was so nice to come back and enjoy the seclusion of this beautiful property after a full day of exploring the Cape. Excellent and welcoming communication with the owners. Would highly recommend and would definitely come back!!

Great family vacation house!

Karen was great to work with and super responsive to our questions. The house is gorgeous and was a great place for our family to gather on the cape. The house has a great back yard and the best covered porch for bonfires. The house is close to downtown Barnstable and near many beaches!! We hope to be back again next year!!

Great place for a family vacation

The house was exactly as described. 3 bedrooms with lots of room. Master bedroom had a walk in closet. 3 bathrooms, washer, dryer, outdoor shower for getting sand off from the beach. Multiple TVs for the occasional rainy day. Outdoor sitting area with a couch and TV was a nice added feature. The property comes with a beach pass for access to multiple local beaches. Close proximity to multiple golf courses with driving ranges (closest 7 minutes away). Plenty of nearby restaurants to choose from. The full kitchen was great, allowing us to prepare several lunches and dinners when we wanted a breakk from dining out. The owners were very communicative during the entire process and were very accessible to any last minute questions. We would highly rate this property.

Beautiful home in Barnstable

We would recommend this home to anybody looking for a relaxing week in the cape. This home is beautiful and has many different areas for hanging out and relaxing. Great if you are traveling with a large group of people. All of the rooms are large and have seating to accommodate large numbers of people. Close enough to walk to the main street of Barnstable or just a short drive and plenty of available parking. We were able to use the beach pass to go to Craigville beach which was very nice. The home also provides plenty of beach towels and beach chairs which is very convenient! Karen was always very easy to get ahold of to answer any of our questions. We would definitely stay here again!

Beautiful Home, Peaceful Location

We had a great stay! The home is beautiful with lots of great spots for hanging out both inside and out. The property is secluded in a wooded area and you really feel like you’re away from it all. But it is also a short drive to beaches and restaurants. Karen was very helpful answering questions before and during our stay and the whole process was very seamless. We couldn’t have been happier with booking this house!

Excellent Getaway House !

This is a fantastic property! Very comfortable and perfect for family reunion or gathering. Tons of space for everyone. There is big yard to play football and frisbee or just relax on the hammock. The highlight of our stay was the outdoor fireplace with large sitting ares and table. The house is perfectly located in the middle of the Cape with an easy access to Hyannis downtown and Nantucket ferry. Karen and David were very welcoming to their house. Thank you :) Highly recommended this property!

Amazing house, great vacation

We have been renting houses at the Cape for many years and have found our favorite. The pictures don't do justice to this beautiful home that has something for everyone: a huge backyard space with a hammock and swing for the kids; multiple outdoor areas including a fire place for s'mores and an outdoor shower; a fully stocked kitchen; a work out area; and plenty of space for relaxing. The peace and quiet of backing up to conservation land cannot be beat and neither can the short walk into town. We can't wait for our next stay!

We have been vacationing on the Cape with our two daughters for over twenty years. We felt it was time to have a place to escape to as our family grows. We look forward to sharing our home with you and know you will have special vacation memories.

Why they chose this property

After a long search for the perfect Cape house, we fell in love with this property because of its privacy, beauty and incredible location. Its size and open floor plan allows family and friends so many options to enjoy the best in indoor and outdoor living without leaving home.

What makes this property unique

Our favorite place is the enclosed outdoor living room. Perfect for cocktails, meals, reading and relaxing. It's a must see!
