Our 3-4 bedroom, 3.5 bath custom-built home in Wellfleet was built in 2005, and mini-split AC units were added in 2021. Set on a lovely, one-acre wooded site, this pristine home with vaulted ceilings boasts a sparkling, light-filled interior. It is charmingly decorated, with bamboo hardwood floors throughout, custom tiled baths and hearth, a cute 'retro' kitchen with all amenities and a breakfast bar, plenty of windows and skylights, a generous deck with gas grill, and an outdoor shower. The expansive great room is composed of a dining area and 2 separate seating areas, and is equipped with large HDTV (with cable, VCR, DVD) and stereo system. Across the back of the house are 3 bedrooms: master with queen bed and private bath, 'kids' room with a full bed and sleeping loft equipped with beanbag sleeper, cushions and TV, and a 3rd bedroom with full bed. A shared full bath lies between latter 2 bedrooms. The light, walk-out basement/rec room has a full-sized futon and 73'' flatscreen TV, equipped with full cable and Wii. It's the perfect hangout spot for the teens and kids in your party. There are full laundry facilities and high speed wireless internet. It's a wonderful house for 2 families to enjoy--kids love the loft with its peekaboo 'spy' window. There's lots of room to relax indoors or sit on the deck, watch the hummingbirds at our feeders, and the foxes, turkeys and deer that visit.
Walk to Gull or Higgins Pond (at 'the Sluice')--great ponds for swimming and boating. It's a quick drive to Wellfleet Center or any of the ocean beaches--or bike if you prefer. Tired of the beach? Enjoy Wellfleet's great galleries, shops and restaurants. Take a leisurely stroll through the Audubon bird sanctuary, catch a fishing charter out of Wellfleet Harbor, or a whale watch from nearby Provincetown. In the evening, catch a movie at one of the country's few remaining drive-in theatres.
On the premises you will find beach towels, beach chairs, umbrellas and toys for your use, as well as books and videos, booster seats and Pack 'n Play, hair dryer, etc. We do not provide bed linens and towels.
Here's what some recent tenants had to say:
''The house was splendid. We have never stayed anywhere nearly as nice. We all enjoyed it, sometimes for different reasons, not least my 3 year old son, who loved the loft and the little window where he could spy on the rest of us.''
''We wanted to take a few minutes to heap praise and thanks upon you for providing us with the best vacation we've ever had.''
''Your home is charming and comfortable, and is an absolute pleasure to be in. The afternoons spent lazing on the sun-dappled deck, waking up in the airy master bedroom that seems to be suspended in the trees, just everything about the house is special.''
''Thanks for sharing your home with us last month. We really loved it.'
''We are about to leave, regretfully, as we have had one of the best vacations we've ever had on the Cape! Your home is lovely, comfortable, and located just where we are happiest. We had the best whale watch excursion ever, took wonderful bike rides and walks on the beach, and are leaving feeling rested, relaxed, and sad that our time is up. Thank you so much for renting us your home, and allowing us such a fabulous time together.''
