Your private retreat is nestled among the oaks and pines, just a five-minute walk to Nantucket Sound and a life-guarded beach. Renovated annually since 2004, this charming home includes an attached guest suite with private bathroom that is perfect for grandparents, au pair, or a second couple.

Renovations have included new interior paint and wallpaper, refinished hardwood floors, an outdoor shower and ''cottage-chic'' decor throughout, two mahogany decks, a stone terrace, perennial garden, a Nantucket wall, arbor, trellises, picket fence, brick walk, landscaping, automated sprinkler system, and new parking area. In 2007 and 2008, the kitchen, guest bath, laundry and sun room were completely renovated, including tile floors, french doors, skylights, new bathroom fixtures, and a gourmet kitchen with custom butternut cabinets, Corian counters, Jenn-Air appliances, and a dining bar. In 2010, the master bath was torn down to the studs and completely rebuilt including a 3' x 5' multi-head shower, tile floor, Corian counters and shower walls, towel heater and new fixtures.

Ideally located in South Harwich, this adorable beach cottage is within 700 yards of Red River Beach and less than one mile to bike path, ice cream, pizza, restaurants, marina and the Nantucket Ferry.

The quaint village of Chatham, with its renowned restaurants and shopping, is only 4 miles away.
