Some info has been automatically translated.
The 200+ year old converted barn is on the ocean 5 minutes from the village of Chester. The Barn offers the perfect get away to recharge in peace and quiet or an easy launch pad for everything the South Shore has to offer. Wake up to views of the ocean. Enjoy your coffee on the deck. Walk down to the rocky beach and have a morning dip (if you dare!). Ideal for families with lots of space to explore. We live in a separate house on the property and are here to help make your stay enjoyable!

The space
Casual, comfortable and complete.

Please note that it is an old property - with steps from kitchen to living space, living space to bathroom, and stairs to the upper floor where the bedrooms are. Families with young children and the elderly should be vigilant.

Other things to note
The property has been in the family for nearly a century and is cherished by all who come here.
