Description

Recently back for rental - What a gorgeous get-away! By the water in historic Barnstable Village, our remodelled, 5-bedroom family home offers the natural, un-spoiled beauty of Cape Cod with all of the comforts of home. No need to drive to the beach! Right across the quiet street is beautiful, sandy Millway Beach, overlooking Barnstable Harbor and Sandy Neck Lighthouse. Featuring views of the water from the upstairs rooms, the house feels like a beachside Bed & Breakfast, with bright, sunny decor, comfortable new beds, high quality linens, sparkling custom kitchen, and central AC. The 5 bedrooms include a convenient downstairs bedroom with adjoining full bath, 3 more bedrooms with queen-size beds, and a spacious upstairs bunk room that can sleep three, doubling as a separate kids' play area. Your family will enjoy the home's 3 indoor common areas to gather and relax together: a downstairs living/dining area, a great screened-in breezeway, and an upstairs family room with TV. On a beach you will never forget! Just steps from our front door, is private Millway Beach. This is a spectacular, pristine tidal beach on a wonderful protected bay -- your own bit of heaven! Perfect for children and adults alike. Swim in the clean salt water at high or low tide. Fly a kite, build a sandcastle, or walk the magnificent stretch of tidal flats and search for sea shells as the tide receeds. In the evenings, kick back, put up your feet, and watch the breathtaking sunsets over the water.

Back at the house, take a warm outdoor shower, and relax on the wonderful, enclosed, and totally private, back deck. Prepare dinner together in the beautiful kitchen, or grill some fresh fish for dinner on the outdoor barbecue. Feel the ocean air while you dine or relax on the breezeway. You will see why we lovingly call our home ''Casa Contenta''


The house is well laid out with 5 bedrooms to accomodate a group. There are 4 bedrooms and two bathrooms upstairs. There is a fifth, newly appointed bedroom downstairs, conveniently located on the ground level, with its own new, full bathroom. We have plenty of beach towels, chairs and toys, and a fully equipped, kitchen with custom white cabinetry and granite countertops. The house is perfect for a family, or for 2 or 3 couples traveling together. Everything you need -- in a gracious, comfortable setting.

You might want to bring your sneakers and bikes - the neighborhood has quiet little streets that are flat and perfect for walking or bike riding. We have left three bikes for you to use and enjoy.

And there's lots more fun nearby -- sports, adventures, dining & shopping! Take a 5-minute stroll over to the Marina to watch the boats and fishermen coming into the harbor. Or book an excursion of your own on the famous Whale Watch or with one of the many sport fishing boats. An easy 10-minute walk takes you to the historic Barnstable Village center on lovely Rt. 6-A with its many antique shops, art galleries, restaurants and ice cream shops. Delicious seafood, mini golf, public tennis and golf are all nearby too. We love our ''Casa Contenta'' in this quiet corner of the Cape, and we invite you to come make some memories of your own here.

    Outstanding Experience

    Excellent stay at this beautiful home steps from a gorgeous private beach! Our teenagers were in heaven with the upstairs set up (bunks and hang out space ) . Easy walk to town for shops. Whale watching boat leaves from nearby dock. Ice cream and food shack was a favorite. Well stocked house makes the stay very easy. We needed something replaced midweek and Prudence (owner) made it happen in a matter of minutes. Would return again in a heartbeat.

    My family, 12 in all, spent a wonderful week at 64 Sunset Lane last August. Without being on direct waterfront, the location of the house couldn’t be better. All that separates it from a nice beach and Barnstable Harbor is a quiet lane, and access to the water is literally only seconds away. Everything was very clean and the place had a real sense of “home.” There are four bedrooms which can accommodate couples or older children, and a “bunkroom” complete with toys for the younger set. Extras such as a breakfast room, upstairs TV room, and spacious enclosed deck in back help spread out a large group. The owner was very cooperative and accommodating. We had fun. - Bill, from up-state New York show more show less

    We had a fabulous vacation at this home in Barnstable. The house was so spacious, with built-ins everywhere. All needs that any family could possibly require for a week or longer stay were covered. The private beach was beautiful and the view of the Barnstable Harbor was very nice. My wife, myself, our children and 4 grandchildren spent most of the week at the house and on the beach, only venturing out for the Barnstable Whale Watch and taking in a Cape Cod Baseball League game in Harwich. We ate at the Dolphin and Mackateese restaurants and Captain Frosty's. The rest of the time, the family ate at the house or on the beach. During the rental process, the owner of this house was extremely helpful in answering all questions about the property and Barnstable area activities. She got back to us very quickly by email and provided useful responses. I would not hesitate to recommend this house to anyone interested in renting a great home for a vacation on Cape Cod.

    Great Vacation in Cape Cod

    My family stayed here for a week in August of 2008. We had a great time, and I was so impressed with the house and the wonderful upkeep the family had put into it. The difference was this is obviously a family summer home with lots of care and a family that does use it. Our family can truly appreciate that! It was great walking distance to grab a lobster roll and a dinner. The kids loved watching the boats come into the harbor!

    The original foundation of this beautiful home has been in my family for several decades. I grew up coming to Sunset Lane and the gorgeous Millway Beach overlooking Sandy Neck lighthouse.
    Renovated and made larger over the years, this fully equipped home with air conditioning has hosted many happy family memories. Come make some of your own.

    What is special about this property?
    I love the house because it is new and clean but still has lots of authentic Cape charm. The back deck is private for sunbathing, kids play or family dinners. The breezeway is screened but great for feeling the ocean breezes.
    The house can fit a lot of people comfortably. Probably the best part is the location - just steps to one of the most beautiful beaches on Cape Cod.

    What is special about your town?
    Barbstable dates back to the 1600's. It boasts the oldest courthouse in the United States. Located on Historic Old King's Highway (Rt 6-A)
    Barnstable Village is thoroughly charming - with its own post office, coffee shop, art galleries, antique shopping, ice cream shop and restaraunts.
