Description

Description

We think you’ll find this thoughtfully renovated house to be just about your most comfortable, stylish and peaceful Cape Cod option. You're well removed from Route 6 traffic. With windows on at least 2 sides of every room, it’s light, bright and airy. A spacious 12’x16’ screened porch and other sitting/lounging areas give guests room to enjoy each other’s company, yet also find their own space. The mix of vintage and modern furnishings lends charm without clutter.

A lot of care has gone into making your vacation comfortable. For example, all 4 bedrooms are well separated from each other, have en suite bathrooms, and also a generous amount of towel bars and counter space. The kitchen makes group cooking a pleasure: you’ll find 2 ovens, 2 cooktops (gas & induction), and 2 sink taps - not to mention tons of cutlery, utensils, baking pans, and appliances. The architect-owners aim to provide a premium rental, so linens and towels are provided, beds are made up in advance, and pre-/post-cleaning fees are included in the rental rate.

The house is at the end of a private pinewood drive, and kids have lots of space to run and play. There’s also a hot-and-cold outdoor shower. And just in case you end up with a rainy day, you have a piano, air hockey/pool table, and large selection of games and puzzles.

Although the house feels secluded, it’s only a 5-minute walk through some of the world’s most beautiful dune-scape to Fisher Beach on Cape Cod Bay. Fisher has so few people, it feels like your private beach! With only gentle waves, it’s also very swimmable. No wonder painter Edward Hopper chose this area for his own house. (You'll see his former studio on your way to the beach, but please note this house is NOT on the beach, and there is no sea view.)

One of the best things about this house is that you’re removed from the noise of Route 6 and dense new construction. Beyond the Bay, you also have easy access to three other types of water: Ocean, Tidal River, and Freshwater Ponds (Slough, Spectacle, etc). The nearest Atlantic beaches, Ballston and Longnook, besides being spectacular, are reachable by bike without getting onto Rte 6 - and yes, there are bikes and helmets available for your use.

You’re 5 mins. to Truro Center, the Truro General Store and a weekly farmers’ market; 4 miles from Wellfleet; and 12 miles from Provincetown.

    Absolute Bliss in Truro

    We had an amazing stay at Dede's house. It is clear the owners put so much thought into EVERYTHING down to the details that make this experience more like staying at your own home away from home.

    It is a beautiful house and the location is divine. Quiet, private, serene and the path to the bay is extraordinary.

    This is a very special place. We loved it.

    Architectural gem, wonderful Truro vacation house

    We keep returning to this wonderful rental house because it is beautiful and comfortable, situated in the woods, but filled with sunshine. The screened-in porch is utterly delightful; the living room is large, light, & airy; the bedrooms & beds are super comfortable; the kitchen is incredibly well stocked; and the owners have everything well marked for easy use & care.

    Wonderful house!!

    We are return renters at this spacious house. Although you might never want to leave the screened-in porch, there is a light-filled, comfortable, spacious living room with a card/puzzle table, plus a separate reading nook. The kitchen is really well-stocked, including fabulous spices. The bedrooms are all comfortable and lovely. There are window fans provided, which is great, even though there is central air-conditioning if needed. Thoughtful owners and lovely house! And we love that the setting is wonderfully quiet and we can walk to the beach in order to walk on the beach. You'll probably want to drive to one of the beaches if you are bringing chairs & umbrellas, but we love being able to take a long walk on the beach that starts and ends at the house, without having to get in the car. show more show less

    The house is unbelievably comfortable. We always look to see what else is for rent and no other house compares. We really feel like we're coming home when we arrive. It's clean, not cluttered and in an unbelievable location. Our son gets so excited and runs right up to "his" bedroom.

    Blissful escape

    What a joy to be at Toehold - everything was perfect, and it was a great gift for our family in these difficult times. The house is so thoughtfully & comfortably designed, & beautifully decorated -- everything from reading nooks to kitchen knives to good beds. The surroundings are peaceful and beautiful; you feel far from the crowds without feeling uncomfortably isolated; and the walk through the woods to the dunes and the sea was a daily joy. The beach, all but empty, was great for swimming. Reading on the screened porch, watching the afternoon light fall glimmering through the trees and listening to the whispering leaves was a particular joy. This is a very special place. Many thanks to our hosts for sharing it. show more show less

    Perfect escape

    Truro is our favorite town on the Cape, and the Toehold is our absolute favorite place to stay in Truro. The house is beautifully designed, perfectly situated (walk or bike to beaches and ponds, a quick drive to restaurants and food trucks we love in Wellfleet, Truro, and Ptown), and such a comfortable escape for a large family group, with space to come together and to seek out solitude. We love this house and always look forward to coming back. It"s really the perfect vacation spot.

    A gem!

    We loved our stay in this gorgeous, artistic home. It's unusual to be able to rent a property of this quality. Every detail from the beautiful furniture and comfortable beds to great pots in what is clearly a chef's kitchen...even a piano - it's a perfect home for relaxing after days enjoying the best part of Cape Cod. The home is in a super private, quiet location, walking distance to the bayside beach and an easy bike ride to the ocean. This place is a gem!

    Everything you'd want out of a Cape rental

    We have shared this rental two separate summers with another family and it has everything you need for a comfortable enjoyable stay in lovely Truro. The house has plenty of spaces to enjoy from the big living room to spacious screened in porch to the cozy tv room and a nice kitchen to hang out and enjoy preparing a big meal after a day at the beach. The outside also has everything you need with a great outdoor shower and bbq area. Not to mention its great location, walking distance to beautiful bayside beaches through the Truro dunes that Hopper made famous and only a short drive to the ocean. show more show less

    From September 16-23, 2017 four couples shared this house in Truro, MA. Each couple had their own bedroom and bathroom, making this house our first choice. The house is well-equipped. We can’t think of anything we’d suggest adding. Plenty of towels. Some staples, like condiments and spices in the big kitchen. Herb garden just outside the kitchen door. Games. There is ample space for this many guests to spread out. We liked that the TV did not dominate the huge living room. It is in a smaller room off the screened porch. One of us occasionally played the piano in the living room while others sang. We were disappointed that our trip coincided with Hurricane Jose stalling off the coast of MA! Couldn’t use the bikes provided, or walk to the beach. It rained 5 ½ days out of 7! Good thing we’ve known each other for over 50 years! show more show less

    We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this beautiful, well-equipped house. This was our first trip to Cape Cod. The house is strategically located, as everything you need to see and do is within a 30-min. drive.

    We're East-coasters who first visited the Cape in the '80s and have ourselves been regularly vacationing in the area since the early 2000s. Dad is an architect and the creative force behind this house's renovations. We hope renters will discover and enjoy many thoughtfully considered design features.

    What is special about this property?
    The house is located in a part of South Truro well removed from Route 6 traffic and noise. It offers private path access to spectacular bay-side Fisher Beach, which rarely has more than a handful of people on it.

    Originally built in the 1960s as a simple cabin, the house been thoroughly enlarged and updated by the architect-owners to combine the best features of homes they have experienced as renters themselves. Guests have room to enjoy each other's company, yet find their own space. There are ample towel racks and counter space in all 4 en-suite bathrooms. The well-equipped kitchen makes cooking fun and easy.

    For eco-warriors, there's solar heated hot water, an optional compost heap, green cleaning products, and lots of other ways to keep your Cape footprint light.

    What is special about your town?
    Truro is the town for people who want to enjoy the outdoors more than a town life - but you're still super close to all that Provincetown and Wellfleet have to offer.
