The Big House for 12 with all linens included, WiFi!
Eastham Vacation Rental - ID 5487

Moving to the Cape in 1979 to manage and operate a cottage colony, I achieved my Junior High school commitment; ''Someday, I'm going to live here.'' However, I was overwhelmed with the workload, particulalry while raising 5 children aged 3 to 13. After 5 years, the business was sold and I pursued my college degree which involved 7 years at the Cape Cod Community College to earn an Associates degree, then commuting off-Cape for 3 years to earn a Bachelor's degree as a Psychology major and then 3 years to earn an MBA. After a 22 year career in the human services field, I retired in 2016.

During the past 19 summers, this house has been rented to many wonderful families, several of whom return each year. Knowing that they enjoy their visit to the Cape and my property is very satisfying.


What is special about this property?
Location, location, location! This property has privacy and amenities galore! First, there is the huge backyard providing entertainment for all ages; the little ones will love the swing set, older children (and adults) the badminton, croquet or basketball hoop. The best, however, is the expansive deck. Sitting there in the early morning while sipping your coffee, you'll enjoy the chirps of a myriad of bird varities. There is no street noise!! And later in the day, relaxing with a cocktail as the sunsets - fabulous.

This house is located in an upscale private neighborhood. Most houses are occupied by year round homeowners so there's no need to worry about them making too much noise.

The house itself is well maintained and upgraded annually. This year, the studio was the focus. There is a new ''oak'' floor which upgraded the outdated commercial carpet and linoleum. The bathroom boosts a pedestal sink, newly painted walls and trimmed shower.

The outside shower, however, is the treasure here. It is oversized, private and the place to enjoy your after the beach experience. With both hot and cold water you'll love the owner supplied products that are non-toxic and safe for the environment. We are, afterall on a septic system in Eastham.





What is special about your town?
Eastham is the best kept secret of Cape Cod. Still unspoiled with development, it is 3 miles wide from bayside to oceanside and there are ponds dotting the land in between. The bike path runs right through the middle so you're never far from enjoying a nice walk or bike ride (there are bikes and helmets for you to use at the house).

Monday nights, at Windmill Green, you can enjoy a free concert with great local talents. Should you have a rainy day (hope not) the NEW state of the art library is amazing. Stop for a visit - even if the sun is shining.

The National Seashore Visitor's Center is in Eastham!!! There are several attractions there, one not to miss is how the Cape was formed. A definite must from there is the walk out to Coast Guard Beach. A lovely paved path makes this an enjoyable stoll or bike ride even.

Fort Hill has two natural wonders; the outer most portion has benches to enjoy the ocean or the superb walk through the marsh with a boardwalk (spring of 2017 renovation). Lots of natural wildlife and quietness.

Eastham has the oldest windmill on Cape Cod! If you can return in September (8-10th), celebrate the 40th annual Eastham Windmill Weekend event. All free! includes a Friday night talent show, Saturday sandart at First Encounter Beach, Windmill Green performances and a food truck with a beer garden on Saturday night. The theme this year is ''Sands of Time'' and the parade on Sunday will indicate just how creative the local businesses are.
