Short 1/2 mile walk to the beach! Located in beautiful Harwich. This cozy home set off the main road on a private lane offers 4 bedrooms which can be difficult to find on Cape Cod. Formerly a two bedroom cottage, the home footprint was expanded to include 4 bedrooms and would be perfect for a large family or a few friends traveling together. For those new to this area, the downstairs is part of the original 1940s cottage and does have shorter ceilings around 7 1/2 feet (real cozy!). The upstairs, added in the 80s has a more traditional ceiling height. The home is centrally located between Dennis Port and Harwich Port and it is a short 800 yard walk to the beach. With multiple shops and restaurants within a 10 minute drive in either direction, finding a meal or some new Cape Cod gear is just around the corner. Much like this home, Harwich Port is going through an upgrade over the last 5 years and has many new shops and eateries. The backyard oasis has a brand new ground level deck, brand new grass (artificial, shhh! don't tell anyone), and a seating area with fire pit for the off season guests looking for a getaway. While cornhole is one of our favorite pastimes out here, the "Olympic field", as we call it, can be used for a handful of different games or Cape Cod's best activity, relaxing.Recently updated den is a perfect hideaway for kids (or adults) of all ages. With a pop out sofa, it is perfect for movie nights or video game marathons. The rooms comes with a Nintendo Switch docking station as well as a 3n1 HDMI outlet that is easily accessible in the media center. The downstairs bathroom, formerly labeled the 'cruise ship bathroom', just completed a down to the studs renovation (May 2022). She is small but mighty now!Seasonally, each bedroom window will have an AC unit as well as the living room in the summer. A gas insert was installed in March of 2023 for any fall guests that may want to enjoy a fire at the push of a button. Baseboard heaters are available to warm up whatever rooms you are using throughout the home. This home is less than two years off of an ownership change and we are constantly making improvements that may not be updated in all the photos!Please reach out with any questions about your stay!
