There's room for the whole extended family (and the dog) at Harborside Beach House & Cottage, a huge peaceful, hidden gem of a home located in the waterfront district in West Yarmouth. This is an ideal Cape Cod vacation spot for large gatherings, and the beach is just a short 1-minute walk away.
The Atmosphere
Enjoy solitude, peace and quiet while staying steps away from several sandy ocean beaches. Here you will experience soft ocean breezes on your face and be treated to sparkling glimpses of the water. Just sit back and gaze at the boats cruising in and out of Hyannis Harbor. The neighborhood is beautifully serene, as it is far more residential and less touristy, but has all the advantages of being near all the activities Cape Cod is famous for: artisan shops, waterfront dining, coffee, boutique shopping, boating, whale watcher cruises, and ferries to the Islands.
About the Main House
Featuring multiple living areas on 2 floors makes this property very versatile for families of all ages. You’ll have plenty of room for everyone to spread out, find their own space, get cozy and relax.
Exuding the quintessential charm and character of old Cape Cod, the pine wood floors are original and the many windows create an airy light-filled space with harbor views.
The main kitchen and dining area are located on the 2nd floor with sliders leading outside to a spacious deck. On days where you prefer to relax at home, you can soak in the sunshine here, and enjoy cool southeasterly breezes, all while watching the boats glide to and from the Harbor. There is also a full bath, 2 bedrooms (each with Queen Beds), living room, and quaint sunroom for morning coffee.
On the lower level, you’ll find a spacious living room, 2 more bedrooms (one with a Queen Bed, one with 2 Twin Beds), full bath, and a room to get away and relax with a book or enjoy a little privacy, along with a butler’s pantry equipped with a refrigerator, microwave, coffee maker and more.
The additional cottage right next door adds another bedroom (Queen Bed) and bathroom! Delightfully cozy, it also has its own kitchen and living room, adding a touch of extra privacy from the main house.
The outdoor space is fabulous! With an upstairs deck, there is plenty of space for all to dine outdoors with wonderful views of the harbor. The front porch is great to escape direct sunlight, but still enjoy the outside air. Hang out and play games on the backyard picnic table. For BBQ’s on the days you want to stay home, simply prepare meals on the new gas grill. Just check our vacation guide for the best place to get your fresh seafood for those perfect grilling meals. Make smores and memories at the new gas fire pit, perfect for laughter and conversation. And of course, there is the must-have brand new outdoor shower!
About the Beach
This location is supreme with Bayview beach right around the corner, including a playground to keep the kids amused. Want privacy? Stroll up the road to find small, tucked away resident beaches. Want to charter a boat or go for a whale watch? Hyannis Marina is across the Harbor. The Bonus? Extra parking spaces – a very desirable and rare find in this part of West Yarmouth so close to the water.
