The office/game room has a standing desk and a table for playing games/poker and doing puzzles, ideal for both kids and adults.

The fully stocked kitchen is perfect for cooking with family and friends, with a grill on the back deck and ample space on the large island.

The kitchen also has a new dry bar with a wine fridge for extra beverages, and a cozy coffee nook for morning conversations.

The 6 bedrooms are thoughtfully designed to blend historical elegance, Cape Cod charm and luxurious comfort. Many of the bedrooms have been newly renovated. Additionally, the home is equipped with split AC units to keep you cool throughout your stay.

The outdoor amenities are just as impressive. They include a refreshing pool, shaded pergola seating, an outdoor shower, a porch swing, a shed stocked with yard games, and a fire pit with Adirondack chairs—perfect for cool Cape evenings.

The home is ideally located near local Cape Cod restaurants, ice cream shops, bike paths and a mini-golf. Boaters will appreciate several marinas less than a mile away, and downtown Falmouth is just a 15-minute drive.

**SWIMMING POOL AND JACUZZI SAFETY ACKNOWLEDGEMENT AND RELEASE**
1. No lifeguards on duty.

2. Your own supervision is the key to prevent drowning: never leave children unsupervised in the pool, jacuzzi, pool area or jacuzzi area- not even for a second!

3. Make sure someone is always watching children around the pool. Do not rely on barriers to keep children from reaching the pool. No barrier is childproof. Barriers only slow a child's access to the pool.

4. In case of an emergency: act immediately -

5. Shout for help.

6. Pull the child out of the water.

7. Take the child to the phone and dial 911 (or the local emergency number) for help.

8. Check airway and breathing. If needed, start CPR immediately (if you are trained).

I’m a New Englander, originally from Connecticut, now living in Boston. Cape Cod is my happy place. For over 5 years, my husband, kids, dog, and I have explored its small towns and boated along its shores. This year, we’re thrilled to share our home on Airbnb! With expert guidance, we’re offering an elevated Cape Cod experience that everyone should enjoy—at least once!
