Description

Description

This extremely comfortable home works well for an extended family or group who enjoy cooking together and hanging out in its large ''kitchen/living/dining'' room right on Cape Cod Bay. The master bedroom with private bath is divided from this open space by double walls and the bricks of the living room fireplace, making it a peaceful retreat even when there is activity in the main room. Two other bedrooms, one larger, with 2 twin beds and its own sliding door to the outside, and one smaller ''childrens' room'' are on the opposite side of the house on the main level. There is a shared bathroom with shower between these two rooms.

A bridge, or catwalk, crosses over the kitchen/living/dining area on the 2nd floor. The stairs are half as deep as normal, and very steep. Rope and wood railings help you make the climb. The bedroom at the top of the stairs has a queen bed under windows that overlook the bay shoreline towards Truro and Wellfleet. A twin bed is tucked under the steeply slanted ceiling. Across the catwalk is a large bedroom full of light from windows on three sides, and a full bathroom. Sleeping under the double windows over the water, on the two extra long twin beds (that can be connected), feels like being on a ship. This bedroom also has a twin bed in the dormer area on the other side of the room, and a day bed/couch that can sleep one.

A separate ''bunk house'' is attached to the garage. It provides extra privacy for up to 6 people. It is divided into two rooms, with a bathroom and shower in between. One room has two twin beds that can be connected to make a king, and the other has a couch and coffee table and two trundle beds, each capable of sleeping two. A network of wooden walkways connects the bunk with the main house, and leads to the steps to the beach and the outdoor shower. One highlight of a swim in the bay is taking a shower under the open sky.

The stairs to the beach are the shortest in the area, so it's easy to run back and forth from the house. The beach is privately owned, and shared by several neighboring houses. The bay is always changing, beautiful for walking, kayaking, swimming and sunbathing. At low tide, huge flats with multiple sandbars and very shallow water open up a whole new world. It is ideal for children, who love to find hermit crabs, snails and tiny shrimp, and build sand castles far out in the bay. There are large sea clams to be found, and worms for fishermen who catch bluefish and striped bass.

After each day's sunset over the water, you can watch the lights of Provincetown start to appear around the final curve of the Cape, and on a clear night, unbelievable stars.

    Paradise!

    This place was paradise! The house and location are amazing - spacious, clean, private, and stunning views from every room! It was an absolutely perfect house for us - with a layout ideal for large families, and the extra bunk house for our teenagers! We so enjoyed the private beach, outdoor shower, and deck with 180 degree view of the bay - with the best sunsets we've ever seen. We were incredibly comfortable the entire time. Barbara was wonderful! After many years of searching for the "perfect" place, we finally found it!! show more show less

    Beautiful in North Truro

    We loved this house! Perfect for 2 families. Fantastic views from the terrace and great beach below. This part of the Cape was also our favorite, quiet and beautiful, but very near Provincetown.

    We would not hesitate to come back.

    Magnificent Sunsets

    The view from the deck and the sunsets were breathtaking and magnificent. We have been vacationing on the bayside of the cape for 20 years and this was truly the best beach as there were no rocks, beautiful sand and it was very quiet. We loved being close to Provincetown . The bunk house was great for our extended family. We also made us of the kayaks and paddle board that was available for guest use. We had an amazing week!

    Picture Perfect Family Vacation

    The location of this house is wonderful, right on the bay beach, close to Provincetown dining and entertainment, and in a quiet neighborhood for walks along the rural roads. The house is spotless and well appointed with plenty of space for everyone. The bunk house was great for our teenagers, bedrooms/baths lovely, and the kitchen common areas was spacious enough for many cooks and helpers. There were indoor (games, books, cable, Netflix) and outdoor (beach chairs, paddle board, kayak) diversions available to keep us occupied. The outdoor seating areas made for shade at any time and fabulous sunsets over the bay. We loved this week; the house was perfect for us. show more show less

    Magical place

    We stayed here with a couple other families, and it is a perfect location. The views are stunning just from the deck overlooking the bay. Our kids loved wading out to sand bars at low tide, swimming, and paddle boarding right behind the house. The interior is comfortable and has everything you need. Homeowners very accommodating. Highly recommend!

    Wonderful! Perfect for big group

    Our multi-family group stayed here in July 2016, this home was absolutely perfect for us. Plenty of space for everyone to tuck away into their own bedrooms (with amazing views and the sound of the ocean waves to lull you to sleep), plus the large common room with living, dining and kitchen space that was open so we could be all together, but large enough to have plenty of elbow room and several small groups doing different things in the space, and a dining table big enough to accommodate lots of diners. Spectacular sunset views on from the deck every night, and easy access to a short set of stairs to a beautiful beach.

    The owner is a pleasure to deal with and very responsive. Very nice to have plenty of linens and towels provided, and there are beach supplies (chairs, umbrellas, some beach toys, kayaks, boogie boards). There is a grassy area with sidewalks between the garage/bunk house with a second patio set, so lots of outside space to sit there or on the deck overlooking the ocean, but no real yard space.

    A pleasant walk or extremely short drive into town leads to a main intersection with a deli, restaurant and chocolate shop (with a Mexican food truck!), and Truro Vineyards is very close. The beach was lovely, but the seaweed got to the kids so we also drove the very short distance over to Head of the Meadow beach, extremely close and convenient.

    All in all a wonderful house in a fantastic location, you can't go wrong!

    Great family gathering!

    We had a wonderful week on the bay side beach with extended family in June! The location of the house was fantastic with beautiful ocean views, spectacular sunsets, and a quick easy drive to beautiful Highland Links golf course as well as National Seashore beaches! Provincetown was also easy to get to, and everyone enjoyed sightseeing, shopping, and renting bikes to ride on the Provincetown bike trail! The house has kayaks, corn hole game, plenty of outdoor chairs, tables and deck space enjoyed by all! Very comfortable for a large crowd! show more show less
