Description

Description

Our Cape house was renovated in 2021. We have received glowing comments from those guests who have been coming to our home for years indicating their appreciation for the upgrades and new amenities.
The most notable improvements include hardwood floors with new area rugs throughout first floor living area, stairway and second-floor hallway as well as new upgraded carpeting in all bedrooms. Mini-splits were installed in the bedrooms and first floor living area to provide relief during periods of extreme heat and humidity. The upgraded bathroom fixtures, accessories and vanity tops added a fresh new look with eco-friendly functionality. The various new furnishings and decor highlight the open and bright appearance throughout the home. Lastly, the new cedar outdoor shower ensures comfort and privacy while enjoying this unique Cape Cod experience.

Our guests overwhelmingly enjoy sunrise breakfasts through evening cocktails on the newly furnished screened porch overlooking the peaceful backyard. The open living, dining and kitchen area was designed to ensure togetherness during social time. The living and dining rooms comfortably accommodate all guests. Paddle fans, located in each bedroom, living room and porch, move the ocean air to provide gentle cooling. The master bedroom (queen) has a ''lock off'' shower/dressing room with access to the first floor half-bath. There is also a full bath on the second floor. Both bathrooms have linen closets. The second floor bedrooms (2 twins; 1 twin & bunks) provide various sleeping arrangements - great for multiple couples, children, grandparents, etc. There is plentiful closet space. Guests may conveniently store bikes and kayaks in the walk-out basement which also contains a ping-pong table for rainy day fun and a front-loading washer/dryer.

Our home is located in a quiet neighborhood within walking/biking distance to Forest Beach, Millcreek and Taylor Pond. Each body of water offers a unique and always-changing perspective of our local ecosystem. One of our favorite walks is to the Forest Beach Conservation area from where we have viewed many sunrises. Walking along Forest Beach, you can view Stage Harbor lighthouse to the east while photographing a beautiful sunset over Nantucket Sound to the west. The neighborhood also maintains a children’s play area, public tennis court and basketball hoop for those who want to sharpen their skills.

Along Route 28, just around either corner from the neighborhood, visitors can access the Cape Cod Rail Trail. The CCRT leads to downtown Chatham and provides miles of biking towards Middle and Lower Cape towns and destinations. In our area, along Route 28 there are also various eateries, shops and a small local library within walking distance or short drive.

Chatham is known for its quintessential Cape Cod charm, seacoast location, renowned points of interest, Chatham Orpheum movie theater and of course, shops of all types. Our home is conveniently located 3-5 miles from the downtown area, major grocery and shopping centers and the quaint town of Harwich.

There are numerous beaches within minutes (biking or driving) of our home. Nearby Harding’s Beach is spacious and family friendly with facilities. (Parking fee required). If you desire sights and sounds of the North Atlantic Ocean, the Cape Cod National Seashore is 20 minutes away.

You will also find some of the Cape's finest golf courses within a 10-minute drive. Museums, concerts, theaters, historical sights and summer activities including Cape Cod League baseball games, where future MLB players display their talents, can all be found in our area.

Finally, if you prefer the slower pace of fall and winter getaways, you can still enjoy cultural events, hiking and naturalist activities, specialty shops and fine cuisine at some of the best restaurants while staying in our home. Also, be sure to see at least one of the early evening sunsets visible from Forest Beach – they are often spectacular!

All the above and more awaits you...we hope you will be our guest!

    Wonderful Stay in Chatham

    Our stay at this Chatham rental was wonderful! The house was the perfect size for 5 adults and a baby. Everyone felt like they had enough room and the 2 bathrooms was a huge plus! We really enjoyed the screened in back porch and outdoor shower. The mini splits and ceiling fans were a nice touch as well! The house was a short walk to Forest beach and an easy drive to downtown Chatham.

    Comfortable South Chatham Beach Home

    My family and I rented this house in South Chatham the second week of August 2023. While not a huge home, it is very comfortable and met our needs. The screened porch is especially nice as it's the perfect place for the family to eat meals, play games and hang out regardless of the weather. The kitchen is very well equipped and great for cooking. The teenagers enjoyed the ping pong table in the basement. In the evenings it was fun to walk to Forest Beach.

    If I were to request one improvement, it would be a small TV in the downstairs master bedroom. I didn't enjoy the TV shows watched by my teenage grandkids. Watching TV after dinner was a favorite pass time of the grandkids and it kept them entertained. show more show less

    Great Vacation Rental for the Family

    My family had a wonderful stay at this vacation rental. While the weather threatened to confine us to mostly indoor activities, we enjoyed the comfortable accommodations. The first floor's open layout is nice; it enabled the family to be in different corners, kitchen, dining room or family room, yet still together. Loved that!
    Lynn and Rich made everything from check-in to check-out very easy.
    The house is as it appears in the listing. Yes, newly renovated, appliances are new. And there is plenty of space for a family of five or more.
    Great location, near several Chatham beaches, the Cape Cod Bike Trail, and a short drive to Chatham town center.
    Look forward to reserving this vacation rental again.

    Perfect house in great location

    From check in to check out everything was perfect. Great location. Some days we even walked to the beach because it was a nice walk. Loved the screened in porch for morning breakfast and late night drinks. Outdoor shower was new and everyone in the fam used it. Nice touch with the ping pong table in the basement. My kids loved that. Can't wait to stay there again

    Beautiful Cape Cottage

    We had a lovely stay at this cottage. The location was fantastic and the house is very clean and well kept. We especially enjoyed the new outdoor shower and relaxing on the screen porch. Super quick trip down to the beach with free parking! Short drive to the chatham shops and restaurants for a nice fun day too!

    Definitely will look to stay here again.

    Fun-tastic Family Getaway!

    We had a super terrific week here at this Cape home. The house made us feel at home. It is very spacious, comfortable, and nicely appointed. The yard and screened in porch allow for fun no matter the weather. The kitchen is fully stocked with cookware, table settings, glassware, and a dishwasher. We enjoyed so many things: beaches, walks, outings in the surrounding towns, visiting the wildlife refuge, mini golf, ice cream, and shopping. Quite an adventure as we visited P-Town where we enjoyed lobster rolls, lobster bisque, and some old fashioned candy. The weather was certainly on our side! We saw seals, people clamming, star fish, dolphins, and sharks. We finished our week with some kayaking, a stop at Devils Purse Brewery, and the Orpheum Theater for a screening of JAWS. This is our third or fourth year returning to this rental, and would recommend it for those who want to have fun and go on adventures all within the comfort of home. show more show less

    Vacation

    We love staying at this home, which is our 4th consecutive year. Our family of 7 enjoys the spacious interior, the bedroom layout with 1 master suite downstairs and 2 bedrooms with full bath upstairs, all the necessary amenities, and the lovely screened-in porch that everyone utilizes throughout the day. The location is close to the waterfront, quiet, and convenient to town shops, beaches and special events.

    Convenient Location

    We stayed here for a week. There were six adults and there was plenty of room for all. The house is exactly as pictured in the photos. We found it to be very convenient to everything. The house is clean and the enclosed porch in the back is lovely. We will definitely rent this house again.

    Good location

    Although the location is very good, we had some problems. Beds were quite uncomfortable, and most of the furnishings are past their expiration date. A few other problems were handled well by the rental agent.

    Cleanliness, comfort, amenities and service are our primary focus. We are pleased that Pine Acres Realty is available to readily assist with occasional appliance issues such as a disconnected DVD cable. Thank you for choosing our family home for your Cape Cod vacation. It is unfortunate that it did not meet your expectations.

    We are pleased to resume offering our upgraded Forest Beach home to vacationers. The neighborhood has been a special place in our family for many years as we enjoy all the easily accessible activities including walking to the beach, kayaking, playing tennis or bike riding throughout the interconnected quiet streets and nearby bike trail. We designed the home to provide open space for family time. Though we cannot see the beach, the location of our property allows us to enjoy ocean breezes and quiet walks day or night. Some of our favorite experiences have been paddling on Taylors Pond and Millcreek and observing varieties of ocean birds and sea life, watching sunrise from the Conservation area and sunset from Forest Beach. We treasure our home and hope others will as well.

    What is special about this property?
    We are thrilled to offer central air conditioning through the just completed installation of mini-splits in all bedrooms and the main floor living area. Our open and comfortable floor plan and the attached screen porch offer entire families / groups to be together yet experience individual activities and conversation. The outdoor shower is the perfect finish to an active day. We take advantage of the walkout basement to easily store and access our bikes and beach chairs, etc...and of course play ping pong while doing laundry. The MBR has access to a private shower / dressing area which also locks off from the attached upgraded 1/2 first floor bathroom.

    What is special about your town?
    Chatham is historical, picturesque and full of shops and various dining establishments. The ''elbow'' location on the Cape peninsula offers some of the most amazing coastal views and experiences including watersports, fishing, clamming and more. Harwich is also close by and has it's own atmosphere and collection of different shops and restaurants. Both towns and nearby Brewster have renowned golf courses. All three communities offer houses of worship that are welcoming and active throughout the entire year.
