Ten years of “excellent “, one of the longest continuous renting property by owner in Barnstable.
Stylish, understated elegant and comfortable beach home (not just a house) in the heart of quaint, historic Cotuit village, on the warm waters of Nantucket Sound. Spend this vacation WALKING to the local market, restaurant, Rope and Loop beaches, the marina, to a Ketteleers baseball game. Be part of this unique intellectual summer community that Cotuit is famous for.
The main house, built in 1901, was renovated with sensibility and was furnished with understated elegance by a professional interior designer. Understated, elegant, classic home with European flair set for family vacation is how many of our guests describe it. You will feel welcome right away, the house is not just well furnished with mixtures of antique and modern pieces but it’s kitchen is designed and equipped for the joy of cooking. Many of our guests reported: the only downside of this place is once you are there you do not want to leave, not even for an evening drink! One can enjoy not just the house, but the garden as well. It is lovingly care for by the homeowner who is enthusiastic gardener. It had the honor to be included among the finest gardeners in the Cotuit during last year annual garden tour.
Residential beach pass is included (15 beaches in 15 miles radius for free) plus 4 kayaks.
If you need additional private space you should consider renting our adjacent one-bedroom cottage as well (accommodates max. 4). The cottage, magazine charming, has it own driveway and small private garden, so it provides additional comfort (Home Away # 3805103). The house and the cottage feature completely chic modern farmhouse kitchens with open dining areas. Enjoy the morning paper or an evening sundowner from the deck or the screened sun porch while your kids are playing or reading. We offer vacationers ample opportunity to get that rest they richly deserve; you will find all the bedrooms beckoning you to sink between the sheets. Younger kids will enjoy the bunk beds or the sleep loft in the main house, and don't forget there is a crib for the smallest ones ,with a convenient changing table, in the master suite separate room. Your children will find a variety of board games, Duplo and LEGO sets, books and classic kid movies. The basement has an additional private room ideal for telework, printer included. It goes without saying that a large assortment of beach gear, sports items, beach toys, bicycles, and even four kayaks are included. Finally, let's not forget Cotuit's uncrowded beaches (that convey that 'private' feel), nor should we overlook the shopping and dining opportunities at Mashpee Common or Osterville.

P.s. Celebrate with me 10 years anniversary of “excellent” and managing the unthinkable: renting by myself while living most of the time in Europe and raising 5kids. Huge THANK YOU to all of my guests, neighbors, friends, local businesses and especially my children who made this possible!
