Description

Description

The quiet lane, the light breeze, the water views...Located in the popular oceanside community of Pochet, this home has something for everyone.

Our home is set on a nicely landscaped 1.5 acres. It features central air conditioning, four bedrooms, three of which are en suite, fresh linens and towels, two decks and a third private deck off the second floor master, a brand new kitchen, a spacious living room, a family room with TV, a dining room table for eight, and ample parking.

The kitchen has granite countertops, a large breakfast island, two ovens, microwave, and warming drawer. It is well-equipped with spices and other staples.

The year-round sunroom is a popular spot for relaxing and enjoying the views. It features a heated tile floor, a sitting area, and a dining area, with access to the bay-facing deck.

Two of the bedrooms are on the main floor, one is en suite and has a king bed and the other has twin beds. The other two bedrooms are on the second floor. One is a master suite, complete with a king bed, a private bath, and a balcony with a wicker bistro set and a distant ocean view. The first bottle of wine is on us!

The second upstairs bedroom is a large room, also en suite, and has twin beds, which we can easily transition to a third king size bed. This room also has an oversized closet that some guests use as a nursery.

Our home is 4/10 mile from Nauset Beach, which The Boston Globe named the best beach for walking in all of New England. This private section of the beach is reserved for Pochet residents and their guests. We provide the beach chairs, towels, and beach toys, and there’s an outdoor shower to wash away the sand.

The house is at the end of a quiet, dead-end lane, so if young children are outside, there’s never any concern about traffic. Our guests love the sprawling lawn and the hammock under the pine trees.

Other amenities include high-speed internet access, cable television, DVD and CD players, and plenty of space to spread out.

    Perfect rental

    This was the perfect rental for our family of 7. The house is impeccably clean and perfectly appointed. Well-stocked kitchen, all of the beach chairs and goodies you could think of, and an absolutely spectacular location. Our family has been coming to the Cape for over 20 years and we are used to visiting multiple beaches...this year with COVID we stuck to the Pochet association access to Nauset and it was perfect. Would rent this home again in a heartbeat!

    Fabulous Rental

    Our family of five loved staying in this beautiful home a short walk to fantastic Nauset Beach. The home was spotless on arrival and is amazingly well equipped with all the requirements for a great vacation. The kitchen is well stocked, the appliances are top quality and the grill is perfectly positioned outside the eating area with the thoughtful detail of having a backup propane tank in the garage (we didn't need it).

    The home is beautiful, bright and airy with high ceilings and great views through huge windows. The deck out back has a fantastic view of the salt marsh. The landscaping is just beautiful. Ac works perfectly on multiple zones. All beach toys are available in the shed on property and the outdoor shower is fantastic. The owners are very responsive and provide great instructions for everything - how to use the AC, appliances and check in and check out. We miss the house already! show more show less

    Exquisite House

    I highly recommend this impeccably clean, and incredibly designed, home. The wood flooring is gorgeous, the sea themed, grey/green granite is beautiful, as are the cabinets, lighting, windows, and wonderful spa-like shower. There is nothing that has not been pre-thought of. There's even every cable channel you could want, with flat screen TV's in every room you would want them. Fabulous rental!!!!!

    (A Beautiful) Home Away From Home

    My family and I just got home from our Cape Cod vacation. This rental was absolutely perfect. The house was spotless and beautifully decorated and we had everything we could possibly need! Joan was available to answer questions, give recommendations, etc. It was simply a joy. We spent a lot of the time at the house relaxing in the yard, on the hammock, grilling, etc. We also went to Nauset Beach every day - it is so close and easy to get to (even on foot!) and we had everything we needed right there in the shed (boogie boards, beach umbrellas, chairs, towels, etc.). Truly, this was a perfect vacation in a magnificent home and setting. Thank you, Joan! show more show less

    Amazing House!!!

    We stayed for a week in July, and loved every minute of it! The house is beyond immaculate. Beautiful, completely updated, very spacious and great outdoor space. Anything you could think of that you need on vacation, it was there. I mean everything! It was a short, easy walk to the beach. One thing that the owner was completely up front with when we were booking was we were going during prime green-head season. I so much appreciated her honesty. If you end up going during this time, as long as you use bug spray it's not so bad. But they do swarm! My point is, you will be working with a very honest and up front owner. They were SO responsive too. In all the years we've rented a house, this has far surpassed any in the past. I would HIGHLY recommend if you are looking in the Orleans area! show more show less

    Wonderful East Orleans home

    My husband and I stayed at Joan and Jeff’s Cape Cod home with two other couples. Their house is spectacular with a beautiful setting. It is well stocked, comfortable, well appointed, and very clean. It is a lovely walk to the private ocean beach which is stunning. Joan was always available to answer any questions and helped to make the stay enjoyable. I highly recommend this beach home. We have rented very nice houses on the Cape for years but this was by far the best!

    Special Home for a Vacation

    We have stayed at this home for a few years and always feel like home when we are there. There are many personal touches that make you feel it is not a rental. The owner is responsive and the house is always in immaculate condition with lots of books and games.

    The location is great and the private beach is very accessible and secluded.

    Perfection - Look no further!

    Everything about our stay was fantastic. Not sure where to start but a couple of key things:
    Location - Perfect! Private, walking distance to beach with water views all around!
    Decor - Perfect! Beautifully decorated with big living and sleeping spaces.
    Amenities - Perfect! We brought our clothes and bought food/drinks - everything else is provided. GIven that we have to fly to get there, this was fantastic!
    Owners - Delightful! Very helpful and great communication every step of the way.

    Thank you for sharing your beautiful home, and we look are already looking forward to next year!

    Fourth of July vacation

    Our family fell in love with Orleans, and this home had a lot to do with it. Comfortable, spacious and beautifully decorated, it was the perfect backdrop for our Fourth of July vacation. I would recommend this rental for anyone looking for plenty of room to gather but also areas that are quiet and private. Everything was provided including sheets, towels and beach equipment, as well as plenty of cooking utensils and dinnerware. I would definitely consider renting this home in the future.

    When we first saw this home and its setting 20 years ago, my husband said his knees went weak. While we were simply looking for a small waterfront cottage for ourselves, we knew that this large home was for us, even if we would need to rent it. We have never regretted our decision. We've had 20 summers of wonderful tenants (one family has come all 20 summers!), and we ourselves have had numerous family get-togethers and reunions here. To us, it is paradise.



    What is special about this property?
    Although we have made many changes to our home over the years, including a huge renovation and addition in 2013, one thing remains the same – the water views, especially of Pleasant Bay from our back deck. Gazing over the marsh as the sun goes down is particularly magical.

    I love my daily early morning walks to Nauset Beach. It takes me seven minutes to walk to the boardwalk that crosses over the salt water river, the dunes, and to the ocean beyond.


    What is special about your town?
    The community of Pochet is comprised of homes nestled among trees and along mostly gravel, sandy roads (speed limit about 10 mph). It's a very quiet, peaceful seaside neighborhood.

    If you have a kayak or rent one, there is a launching place just down the lane about 2 minutes from the house, but you must watch the tides and launch only at high tide, or you'll be stuck in the mud. You can kayak in Pleasant Bay and even explore Pochet Island, which is privately owned but welcomes visitors. Alternatively, you can rent kayaks at Goose Hummock Shop in Orleans and launch from there into Orleans Harbor, which is also very beautiful.

    Our home is only about a mile or so from East Orleans Village, which has several wonderful restaurants, Barley Neck Inn and Nauset Beach Club; The Sundae School; a terrific market, Nauset Farms (everything from prepared foods to seafood to deli to baked goods and sandwiches); a pizza restaurant (Zia's); and a few charming shops.
