About this house rental

Located on the eastern end of Beach Avenue just one mile south of quaint downtown Kennebunkport, this high-end oceanfront property sits in an upscale neighborhood with an oceanfront location on Gooch's Beach.
Built in 1911, this well-appointed home has been beautifully renovated with the vacationing family in mind, offering an abundance of New England charm with the convenience of modern amenities.

With hardwood floors, classic and refined furnishings, and large windows that frame the ocean, the central living space is bright and welcoming. Gather for pleasant conversation in the two sitting rooms, both with expansive windows and comfortable furniture. A beautiful wet bar with granite countertops and a wine fridge.

Move into the spacious, gourmet-inspired kitchen to find additional granite counterspace, a collection of modern appliances, and a beautiful wall of exposed brick. Wake up each morning to freshly ground and brewed coffee, and make fresh lobster in the all-important lobster pot. The formal dining area offers seating for 10, while the spacious front porch equipped with rocking chairs is perfect for coffee, dessert, cocktails or just relaxing to the sound of the waves.

After long days of sunbathing, kayaking, and combing the nearby beaches for sand dollars, head downstairs to the media room. Roku equipped so you can watch all the movie channels you have at home: Netflix, HBOgo, Showtime, and many others. Put the big game on the widescreen TV. And there's no need to compromise your cable preferences - there are four more TVs, as well as WiFi, to enjoy!

With five bedrooms, four full bathrooms, and one half-bath, the Beach House at Kennebunk can sleep up to 14 people. There is a large bedroom in the lower level, with 4 twin beds. There is also a queen sleeper sofa and a full bathroom, perfect for kids or young adults to share.

There are three bedrooms on the second floor: A master suite with a king bed, a private TV, amazing views through grand Palladian windows with a gorgeous private bath. The second and third bedrooms share a full bathroom. One has two twin beds and the other has a queen bed. The third floor has a large au pair suite with a Queen and a Twin bed, a TV, and a full bathroom.

Other amenities include a full laundry room, spacious private parking for up to 8 cars plus a two car garage, a half-bathroom on the main floor and a private outdoor shower for rinsing off after a day at the beach..

Beloved in Maine and beyond for its historic architecture, beautiful country roads, and stunning sandy beaches, Kennebunk is an ideal destination for families in search of a quaint New England experience. Build sandcastles at Gooch's Beach just across the street, or simply walk a few blocks on Beach Avenue to reach the playground and tide pools at Mother's Beach.

The KBIA (Kennebunk Beach Improvement Association) is just a short walk away and offers family-friendly recreation for all ages, such as movie nights, family sailing and kayaking, and Wednesday night beach barbecues (membership is required and open to the public). During the summer, guests can also curl up in the sitting area to watch fireworks light up the water!

Get out on the water for a day of deep-sea fishing, wander through the shops of nearby Kennebunkport, or visit one of the historic lighthouses.

Visited Kennebunk with immediate family and in-laws. House was great with ample space / room for everyone, and location was ideal for beach access. Also very close to town, roughly 1 mile to get to shops & restaurants.

The owner, Brian, was very polite and fast to reply. The house is very nice and the location is perfect. We enjoyed the beach and all the shops and restaurants in Kennebunkport. I rated the cleanliness of the house low and talked to Brian about this problem. He informed me that he was also very disappointed with his current cleaning service and was getting a new service as of the next week. I hope the new service pays more attention to this beautiful house. The one inaccuracy of the property description was the whirlpool tub. The tub is in the third floor bathroom and it is extremely small. Otherwise, we really enjoyed our 50th wedding anniversary family vacation in Kennebunk!

This house met or exceeded all of our expectations! Plenty of room for a group of nine adults. The porch is awesome. While we were a bit concerned about being close to a road, it was never an issue. We came to think about it as a source of free entertainment, especially the parallel parking attempts. We wondered how much beach was left after the storm. At high tide, maybe 20 yards. At low tide, quite a lot, more than 100 yards. It was also nice to be so close to town, just a bit more than a mile. And there are sidewalks all the way to town, so it is easily walkable.

Our weeklong stay at the house couldn’t have been better. The location is fantastic and the amenities were great. We enjoyed the proximity to the beach and convenient location. We will definitely consider booking the house again in the future.

We stayed over the holidays while joining family in the area to celebrate Christmas. The house is open, inviting, and stocked with all the essentials for a lovely stay and even for hosting others. In fact, we chose to have a few meals here as opposed to local family’s home given how spacious and well equipped the kitchen and dining options are! Obviously the beachfront location is a huge draw also! Would definitely recommend for any occasion and I hope to be able to enjoy the hosts’ home again!

We throughly enjoyed our stay in Kennebunk/Gooch Beach. We walked daily on the beach and the family that are unable to walk down to the beach enjoyed watching the beach from the massive well equipped front porch. The home has all the amenities imaginable. We had an incredible time there! Thank you for sharing your lovely home
