Description

Description

Felix Domus ( Happy Home in Latin ) 72 Pine Street, Edgartown proper starts at the top of the Pine Street.

I do offer off day rentals to accommodate a guest if possible. Wednesday to Wednesday, etc.

RE Covid 19- accommodations and cleaning

Although it comes turnkey I would suggest:
Using paper products and plastic utensils- the house comes with dish, pots, pans and silverware
Bring your own towels and linens- the house comes with bed linens, beach and bath towels

The house will be deep cleaned every turn over, all cabinets outside and in. All towels and linens washed as
usual.

I talk to each and every guest to ensure a great stay. JTTopham

You see the pictures of the house , no need to go into that. It's a family home with character, Housekeeping comes every turnover-it's clean, I leave it turnkey- bed linens, beach ann bath towels, cooolers, beach chairs and A/C.

First, so close to town you can hear the bells of the Edgartown Whaling Church chiming on the hour. Take a chill and coffee, get up early to listen to the chimes and birds, its worth it because when you leave it's over.

Second, its very private yard, sunbath on the deck for your summer tan in complete privacy, you can hear the neighbors, kids laughing and playing, but you can't see them, and they can't see you.

At the Top of Pine Street

Turn left – and you will see:

Restaurants, Edgartown Old Whaling Museum, Shops:, convenience store, bike rental, jewelry, movie theatre, fashion, ice cream- coffee shops, library, banking, art galleries, beaches, book stores, night clubs, fine dining, and star gazing, at the end get on the Ferry to Chappy- “The One Time”

Turn right- you will see:

Bike lanes to Edgartown School, South Beach, State Beach, and OB.

Cannon Ball Park-, Edgartown Fresh Fish Market, bike rental, convenience store, restaurants, Dairy Queen (yum), Stop & Shop, sub/pizza shops, banking, hardware store,

Sleeps 6 with-2 bedroom with a double bed in each,sleeping loft with 2 twins and a pull out couch

Beaches: 0.5 mile to Light House Beach, 0.8 mile to Fuller Street Beach, 1 1/2 miles to Bend in Road (State) Beach, and 3 1/4 miles to South Beach.

    Great Place to Stay in Edgartown

    The house is well maintained, and stocked with everything you need to have a great vacation. It is set back from a side street, and the neighborhood is quiet. The yard is large and we made use of both the deck overlooking the back yard, and the swing in the front yard.

    It is an easy walk to several close by restaurants (Atria, Town, Sharky's and Bad Martha's), and the walk into Edgartown is short enough to walk easily as well.

    The owner was very attentive, and helpful. We enjoyed staying and look forward to returning in 2023. show more show less

    The house is in a quiet neighborhood with a beautiful private yard. The home was clean, comfortable and well situated for our stay. It is located within walking distance to Stop & Shop and all downtown Edgartown has to offer! The owner John is kind, attentive and helped to make our stay great. We hope to return next summer!!

    Wonderful experience!

    We've stayed at this perfectly situated and well cared for home for several years and as soon as we leave we set dates to come back. In a quiet neighborhood, everything you need is within, the owner is extremely responsive, and all in all it's a home away from home.

    What a gem!

    We were fortunate enough to win the Marshfield High's School Touch Down Club raffle.

    Go Rams-super bowl champs and perennial Massachusetts state power football program. I'm a football mom and my husband a Rams coach.

    One of the coaches volunteered his home for the fundraising.

    We booked a prime June week below market (no one was paying attentions at the raffle).

    Great location, clean, friendly neighborhood. Our first time visit to the island as a family and we were thrilled with the spot and accommodations.

    The coach gave us a list of activities to enjoy with our 6 year-old.

    Spot on for our 6 year old.
    · Crab Creek-catching live crabs, catch and release
    · Harvesting Mussels on Chappy
    · South Beach big waves (with a life preserver of course- our son is fearless).
    · Sunset at Menemsha Beach.

    We'll bid more next year for the value. We're hoping it will be annual event for our family. And watch our son grow bigger on the "growing wall" over the years to come.

    Highly recommended.

    GO RAMS AND THANKS JOHN!

    Comfy Cottage Perfect for Fun

    What an adorable home. Very comfortable with all the amenities one could need. A full kitchen with all the utensils I needed to cook, washer/dryer, and plenty of sheets and towels for my use. It's literally walkable to downtown Edgartown, but with a super spacious lawn I was very comfortable hanging out on the deck and enjoy the sun and my book. The owner was super easy to talk to and helped make my stay perfect. Oh and the place was immaculate when I got there. Francine, the cleaning lady, is a gem! show more show less

    Great little getaway

    This was a great time to visit the island, not too busy, and perfect weather. Staying at this house is always a treat and will continue to be a repeat visit. Walking distance to downtown Edgartown to have a romantic picnic at the lighthouse or make a dinner in with the full kitchen and grill.

    Such a cozy place on the island on a quiet street allowing you to truly unwind and enjoy some relaxation. Thank you for letting us stay here!

    Great location, quiet street

    We loved the location of the house! Walking distance to town and to Stop & Shop. We used the new beach chairs and paddle game at the beach most days. The A/Cs worked well on the few hot days. We appreciated John's tips and he called when we were arriving on the ferry to let us know we could check in early. He is a very attentive and proud homeowner, if we don't find our own house to buy we will be back!

    Great location

    I stayed in the house for two months during the shoulder season. It is in a great location in Edgartown. I walked to get coffee and breakfast at nearby coffee shops every morning. The house has a pretty large yard and there's plenty of privacy.

    John was very attentive during my stay; he had a neighbor install an AC unit when the summer weather hit and the lawn was mowed and watered often.

    A pleasure having you and Willow (she's a sweetie) at the house. First dog on the growing wall. Hope the Island got into your blood and I can have you back as a guest. If not you, maybe one of your buds and they invite you.

    Enjoy the rest of your summer.

    Lovely cottage, perfect location, wonderful host

    John's cottage is not only cute, cozy, functional, and well situated, it has heart. You can feel the vibes of guests on vacation over time, or John's own family over the years, and you feel at ease and welcome - like it's your long-lost home - the moment you walk in.

    I stayed during the offseason for several months, and at times was solo ("working from home"), and at times had friends and kids visiting. The cottage was perfectly suited for each scenario.

    Pro's: open plan, outdoor shower, lovely yard, lots of beds, close to Edgartown, walking distance to everything in town (no car needed); bikes on property, high/cute curb appeal.

    Con's: only one power outlets in each bedroom, bring a power strip!

    Matt,
    So glad to have you as a guest.

    Great tip for the Guests regarding the wall outlets. Yes "Bring a Power Strip".

    Family house. Boys in the swing set, Jack and me with the 26 pound lobster and the 10 pound puppy, Uncle Joe talking to JFK in Hyannis port with Gramma on the left, Durgin Park menus for my Great Uncle Jim the owner.

    You're a photographer and you owe me a great Island picture for the wall.

    Me Casa- Su Casa. Hope to have you back next year.

    And thank you for leaving the house so clean and tidy.

    Cheers JT

    Cozy house with everything you need

    We enjoyed staying at Felix Domus. House was very clean, and had everything we needed for our stay, including an outdoor shower, plenty of towels and linens. The location was perfect for us, close to stores, restaurants (take out and outdoor dining), and close to the bike paths. (we are definitely bringing our bikes next time.) State beach and Lighthouse beach is just 10 minutes away, and also close to the Chappy Ferry. The neighborhood is very quiet and private. We are planning to come back next year. show more show less

    My brother put up a house in Edgartown on 1980, been going there ever since- gets in your blood. I've owned the cottage since 2004. My boys, their friends and I spent every April vacation there playing wiffle ball, cribbage, all the boys leraning to drive at 14, jumping off Jaws Bridge and working on the cottage I'm honest, and I don't oversell it. It's your vacation, I want to make sure it meets your needs and expectations.

    What is special about this property?
    It's the location. No need for a car. The downtown of Edgartown starts at Pine Street. 1//2 mile and you're in the water at Edgartown Harbor. 1/4 mile to Stop & Shop, 1/4 mile to Edgartown School for tennis, basketball, baseball and street hockey. The Island bike paths converge at the end of the street, from there it's to 3.5 miles to South Beach, 1 mile to Town Beach and 6 miles to OB. It's a friendly mix use neighborhood of year round islanders and seasonal residence that are friendly. The back yard is very private with a large deck area for sunbathing. It's a family home with personality. I try to leave it turnkey with coolers, linens and towels, wiffleball, fishing rods, and a basketball hoop at the end of the driveway.

    What is special about your town?
    It's Edgartown. Shops and shopping, movie theater, local restaurants that can be upscale or family style, historical buildings, library and the ferry to Chappy.
