OUR LOCATION:
Our Cape-Style home is on a quiet private road in an exclusive neighborhood. Our location is exceptional. Walk to Pleasant Bay at the end of the street via a private path. There, watch the sunrise or sunset over the Bay from the seating area (nicknamed “the sandbox”) on the rock embankment at end of the street. The view of the bay and North Beach with the Atlantic Ocean stretching to the horizon is beautiful.
We are close to almost everything Chatham Village has to offer - just a few minutes walk to Town, Beaches, the Chatham Fish Pier, the town tennis courts near the Railroad Museum, fine restaurants, shopping and historic sites.
It is an easy walk to the world-class Chatham Bars Inn, offering golf, spa, tennis facilities and fine dining. Take a bike ride on the dedicated bike paths running along the old railroad line. Bring your kayak to explore by water.
If you wish, leave the car in the driveway during your entire stay. You only need to decide: walk to one of Pleasant Bay's beautiful swimming beaches such as Chatham’s signature Lighthouse Beach, or, stroll into town.
In the evening, attend Chatham’s Friday night band concerts, go to the Eldridge Free Library, the Orpheum theater, or live theater at the Monomoy Playhouse.
RELAXING AT HOME
Eat or just relax on the outdoor deck. Rinse off from the beach in the enclosed outdoor shower - everyone’s favorite! There is a convenient half bath just as you enter by the kitchen door.
The renovated kitchen features a Thermidor gas stove. There is ample counter and sink space for those who enjoy cooking. Or, have a cook-out on the outdoor back yard gas grill.
The living room is large and comfortable. We have internet and cable TV.
Open the front door, with its old fashioned bulls-eye glass windows, latch the screen door; and, leave the the dining room french doors open to let the offshore breezes circulate throughout the house. If it is too hot, we have A/C.
If you stay over the Fourth of July, grab a beach chair for a front row seat to the town parade which, begins in our neighborhood. In season, pick blackberries from our yard.
ACCOMMODATIONS:
The master bedroom has a king size bed with a comfy Gardner organic mattress. There is an adjoining bathroom.
Upstairs, there is a full bathroom with a shower.
On the 2nd floor, the large green West bedroom has a wrought iron queen bed and a twin which can function as a day bed or sleep a child.
The blue North bedroom has a single twin bed. With its antique furniture and organic mattress, it exudes its own private quietude.
The turquoise South bedroom, with twin beds (yes, organic mattresses), is decorated in traditional Cape white.
You can see the ocean from these rooms. Open the windows, enjoy the fresh ocean air while you are lulled to sleep by the sound of the surf and the seals in the distance. As a child, I would count the seconds between the sweeping beam of Chatham Lighthouse before dropping off to sleep.
TOURING:
If you crave adventure, the National Seashore Park is 20 miles up the road; take a day trip to Provincetown or, Hyannis and the Island Ferries.
Activities include whale-watching, day visits to Nantucket and Martha's Vineyard via ferry and local fishing trips.
There are numerous historical sites in Chatham and all over Cape Cod. If you want to cross the bridge, visit Plymouth Plantation and Mayflower Museum (Plymouth), or the Whaling Museum in New Bedford,
