I have been renting my home out to Cape vacationers for 18 years now. I love knowing my house will provide a happy, comfortable environment for families who are drawn to and love the Cape. Being a dog owner and lover myself, I know that the option I provide in allowing man's best friend to accompany families on vacations (which should be the happiest and most stress free of times. Not being able to bring your dog with you creates stress and anxiety) is a meaningful bonus to many of those who have stayed in my home.
This house is indeed my home though and is very special to me. Sharing my home has been a mutual blessing (for the most part!). I moved back to the States and into this house in 2001 when I retired from dancing with both the Stuttgart Ballet and The Birmingham Royal Ballet.

What is special about this property?
I feel like my house is filled with light and sense of open space. The outdoors is brought in through multiple windows and the landscaping that surrounds the house. There is feeling of calm and comfort, and for the eyes, soothing colors throughout the house. Friends, family and renters alike have remarked on this special feel this house provides over the past 2 decades.
The backyard is spacious and very private. The patio makes a nice spot to sit outside in the morning with coffee or grill in the evening.
Its location is also often commented on. It is in a quiet, low key neighborhood yet is so close to town, beaches and the Eldridge Field where the Chatham A's lay in the summer. The Chatham Village Market is less than a mile away.

What is special about your town?
Chatham is a jewel. The zoning laws are very strict so all commercial properties and signs must be approved in design which in turn preserves the quaintness and aesthetic of the town. It is very appealing to the eyes and to the heart! Multiple shops, restaurants, ice cream stands and hotels, complete with even a park in the center upon which sits a band stand. And every Friday night there is a band concert where the surrounding lawns will be covered in colorful blankets and littered with happy families, holding balloons and glow sticks and smiling and rocking in rhythm as the songs are played.
Water surrounds us on every side and there are freshwater lakes that are not only swimmable but warmer than the Atlantic ocean for those whose swimming tastes are not as bold! I think our beaches are some of the most beautiful and walkable on the Cape. The seals are an amusing sight to look for as well.
