This is the view of Windswept from the entrance of a winding path that is carved thru our meadow of native grasses. The path leads to a dirt road that goes directly to a harbor beach in Monomoy. The lawn is perfect for soccer games or kite flying. A hammock is waiting under the pines trees for those afternoon siestas.
One set of sliding doors off the brick patio, leads into a comfy family room, centered around a brick fireplace with a T.V. and closets full of board games, lawn toys, videos and foul weather gear.
The other patio doors enter into Windswept's west wing which includes a more formal living room full of nautical antiques, the ''Meadow'' king ensuite bedroom, a wet bar and the dining area. The dining room has a large, hand decoupaged trestle table that seats 14. This is the spot to enjoy wonderful, lingering meals watching the bright red skies of a Nantucket sunset.
The eat-in kitchen is next to the family room and is totally equipped with essentials such as a microwave, ice machine, china service for 20(non breakable for children), lobster pots and vases. A large deck with tables, cushioned chairs and a BBQ, catches the sun all day and is off the kitchen and family room.
The ''Red, White and Blue'' bedroom (another ensuite king bedroom) has a sitting area overlooking the lawn, meadow and view of Nantucket. This bedroom's bathroom has a cool soaking tub and large glass-bricked shower.
The second floor deck is off the ''Shell'' bedroom and is THE place to enjoy cocktails after a busy day relaxing.
Another path leads away from Windswept to a cute, compact cottage called ''Whim''. For information on also renting Whim, please refer to listing #16440.
Here are some comments from past guests:
''Needless to say...We had a ball staying at your fabulous family compound. Our 4 boys(ages 2,3,4,5!)spent hours splashing in the pool while Grandmom and Grandpa watched. We are a tennis playing family and had so much fun @ Whimbleton''
the Leesons
''Sleeping until 8, playing spud in the yard, reading for 3 hours every afternoon-this week is crammed with relaxing yet entertaining activities. The pool and tennis court were additions that heightened our enjoyment of the week. With ages from 22 months to 68 years, all of us have certainly had a great time.
The Petersons
''In addition to the wonderful setting and the omplete and extensive facilities, we appreciated the thoughtful nuances: the names on the rooms, meaningful books, the jovial art, the picture gallery in the hall and the Nantucket nicknames. Our 4 families, including nine gradchildren, ages 9-16, had a truly terrific time.''
The Coldwells
''This was truly an escape to a little piece of Heaven.''
