Woods Hole Vacation Rental - ID 12249

Do you wish for simpler times? Reduced stress? A friendly, uncomplicated village life? This turn-of-the-20th century home, centrally located in a charming village, will bring simple pleasures.

Walk to all your errands and activities – P.O, library, market, gifts, tennis courts, bike path, playground, sailing, beach, science school, restaurants. In the evening, folk dance, visit ''open mike,'' occasional concerts or movies....or simply get an ice cream and watch the ferry unload. Take your bike to the Islands (Martha's Vineyard and Nantucket). All these simple pleasures within a 5-15 minute walk!!

This vintage home has a soul. All rooms have water views. The living room and the dining room are brightly furnished and lead to a side porch. Upstairs are three bedrooms and an old-fashioned bathroom with a claw tooth tub. Wake up to water views in all bedrooms! (The sunny yellow bedroom has a double plus a single bed. The sky blue bedroom has a double bed. A smaller sea green bedroom has a single bed. There is an outside shower -- take your shower under the stars, should you wish.

Share drinks on the side porch and watch the world go by...or contemplate the boats on Eel Pond. The kitchen has a gas stove and retains an old-fashioned antique feel. The pantry is well equipped. Wood trim throughout the house is rich and warm and the decor is colorful and amusing. (This is a house with a soul and spirit. As the owners renovate, every effort is made to retain the original architectural features.)

The house is amazingly accessible to Logan Airport: Catch the bus at your airport terminal and arrive in Woods Hole within 2 hours; walk 10 minutes and then you are ''home''! In the summer, a trolley bus takes you to Falmouth and other Cape destinations.
