Chatham House | Ocean views, path to beach, short walk to lighthouse and town, sleeps 12

6 Bedroom House in Chatham

This listing combines a large house having a deck with a beautiful view of the ocean and an adjacent cottage allowing for peace and quiet. Perfect for an extended family, or for family and friends where some privacy is desired. Great for working at home, or long walks on the beach.
Watch the ocean from the main house deck. or from the couch in the living room, or up in the second floor bedroom, as the boats go through the cut between the beach and the outer barrier sandbar. A quick walk down the path to the beach, and choose between Lighthouse beach on the left or right towards Monomoy (shells always, see seals swimming often). There are several beach chairs provided.
The main house has 3 floors, cable (2 TVs, Comcast wifi), great mini-split AC, a large kitchen, and a gas grill on the deck. It sleeps 8 - with up to 4 kids in 2 bunkbeds in one large kid-friendly room, or up to 6 adults in queen beds in 3 comfortable rooms, with a tub or shower on each floor). There It is a pleasant walk up to Chatham light or on to the town center.
The cottage sleeps 4, with a queen bed in the bedroom and a sofa bed in the livingroom. The cottage kitchen is fully equipped with a stove, dishwasher. refrigerator, and microwave. The cottage has its own Comcast wifi/cable, with a smart TV. The bathroom includes a tub/shower. Summer breezes often provide effective cooling, with window air conditioners available if needed.
Like many Cape Summer rentals, linens (sheets, towels, pillowcases) are not provided. There are a number of firms that deliver and pickup linens in Chatham, and we'd be happy to provide a partial list.
Every year we get questions about our no pets policy. Between May 1st and September 15th dogs aren't allowed on Chatham beaches, except one, and that one is a bit of a drive. And a pet left inside a strange house while its owners are at the beach may decide to take revenge, and that's not something that I or my cleaning team have time to wrestle with during the transition between guests.
We want to mention a minor parking inconvenience, so as to avoid surprises. Around Labor Day 2023 a fence was erected blocking our cottage parking. All of our renters in 2023 and 2024 were successfully able to make use of our main house parking (including the front lawn in some cases), but it isn't as convenient and we are working with skilled attorneys to correct that situation.
The main house has been in my family for over 60 years, and was built in the early 1800s. While it was upgraded in the 1980s to better support year-round living it still retains it's authentic Cape Cod charm. With a large deck and several large ocean-facing windows added, and the old Cape Cod basement a distant memory. It is not a recently built suburban-style building, and if recent is your desire then another property may suit you better. It is, as shown in the pictures, a comfortable and well-equipped Cape Cod home, with the ocean a quick walk down a path and the center of town, with shops and restaurants, a pleasant walk through historical Chatham.

Summary: The location of this house is amazing. It was a 5-10 minute walk across dunes to the beach — which was virtually empty, as it’s not a public beach — and a 15 minute walk to downtown. We made use of both nearly every day. We enjoyed watching seals, walking out on the sandbar, and seeing the airplanes, helicopters, and boats pass by. The house itself is well equipped but a little funky. A few of the appliances don’t work like they should (mini split AC remotes don’t work, dishwasher required repair mid-stay). As the property is managed by the owner and not a management company, we had a couple of hiccups along the way regarding communication.
