The Space:

Redesigned and recently rebuilt, the kitchen ticks all the boxes for home cooked meals. Bright & open it features: a stove with electric cooktop, dishwasher, garbage disposal, microwave and island with seating for two.
The kitchen is open to the dining nook which has seating for six.
The kitchen is stocked with all the cooking/serving necessities including: cookware, pots, pans, plates, cups, and silverware.
Comfy living room with multiple seating options. The TV, although it doesn’t have cable TV, it is a smart tv, connected to a RoKu so you can connect to your streaming apps.
There is a four season sunroom that is a perfect spot for reading or enjoying a cup of coffee. The sunroom opens to the deck and has peaks of the ocean.
Outdoors: Sit on the deck and enjoy ocean breezes, there is also a gas grill outside for cooking up dinner after a day at the beach.
Up one flight of stairs there are three bedrooms all furnished with comfy memory foam mattresses:
Bedroom 1 & 2: each have queen size beds
Bedroom 3: has a twin trundle, set up as one twin bed but can pull out to become two twins.
Hotel quality linens and towels, shampoo, conditioner, and Dove body wash provided for guests.
There are two bathrooms at the house:
-On the first level there is a full bathroom with shower
-On the second floor there is a full bathroom with a stunning clawfoot tub. The tub does not have a shower attachment so it is simply a tub to enjoy and relax.
Other amenities worth noting:
-The house has only been owned by two families and has been used by the current owners for generations. Beginning in mid 2020, they gutted the house to the studs, reconfigured and rebuilt it. Most of the furniture came back to the space to blend the new construction with their family history.
-The backyard overlooks the marsh which then overlooks Good Harbor Beach. There are so many colorful birds in the back yard that bird watchers may confuse the backyard with a bird sanctuary.
-Only two steps to the front door, 12 stairs to the 2nd floor
-Washer/dryer available for use
-Small parking area with space for two cars tandem
-Fast wifi throughout the house
-Gas heat to keep you warm in the winter.

The home was perfect! The communication was smooth, and we had a very easy check in process. The home was very clean and comfortable. We loved the deck and even though neighbors were close, it was quiet and felt like we were in a kind of tree house as it is nestled right up to the marsh. The birds chirping and sea breezes made lounging on the deck awesome!!! We had an excellent stay!!!

Nice location
Beach house with various beachy furniture. Main sofa torn ragged arms, ants on ktchen counter substandard sheets but nice birdhouse in back nice back addition house smelled but we were able to open lots of windows & improved dramatically. All in all we’d give it a 3 out of 5. We also booked a day too early, asked for adjustment & heard nothing back. We arrived lat on the 10 th.
Good location and view. Just fyi, the road it is on is a tight, bumpy gravel drive - but not hard to get to. Cute house with nice decor and cozy chairs and bedrooms. Close drive to the beach, Boston and Salem, Massachusetts.

Just what we needed
This was just what we needed. Thank you very much!
This property has been very recently updated with new kitchen and baths. The beds were very comfortable. We had a couple of very hot days and the AC worked perfectly. You can spot the ocean from the deck looking out across the salt marsh. We were very comfortable and the best part was being able to walk to both Good Harbor and Long beach. The most popular beaches now cost $30-$40/day to park, so being able to walk was great. The house is so conveniently located, 2 minutes from stores and 10 minutes from Rt 128 so we could get to other places easily. Definitely recommend!
Superbly renovated, spacious, very clean, full kitchen setup, laundry, private location yet 10 minute walk to beach & 5 minute drive to food & other stores. Communicative host, nice vacay amenities. Can’t wait to return!
