ELLERY HOUSE is a charming and beautifully maintained, 1700 sq-ft Summer Beach House. With 4 bedrooms and 2 baths, it sleeps 8-10 comfortably. Pets and children are always welcome.
In the heart of lovely Easton's Point, Ellery House is an easy 3-block walk to First(Eastons)& Second (Sachuest) beaches. Located in Middletown, on the Newport/Middletown line, this cozy home is about a half-mile to town and all the fun activities of Newport. Numerous excellent restaurants are within walking distance as well. Ask me for recommendations! Maps are provided to area attractions. Sachuest Point National Wildlife refuge is a mile from our home. The refuge supports over 200 bird species, and has over 2.5 miles of nature trails and viewing platforms, in order for guests to enjoy this beutiful ocean-side nature preserve.
This Cape-style home has been newly refurbished with fresh paint in many rooms, bathroom renovations, a brand new washer and dryer, and a new dishwasher. There is plenty of off-street parking, a private back yard with fenced patio (for people & your pet!), grille, and an outdoor hot & cold shower. Most rooms have cable television and air conditioning. The back yard/patio and a large play yard are securely fenced for the safety of your children or the family dog. A fully stocked playroom is available.
Ellery House is available for year-round monthly, weekly, or weekend rentals. During early June, there is usually at least a 3 day-weekend minimum rental, & during late June, & July and August, there is a weekly minimum rental. Discounts are available for full-month rentals. Please see the calendar for current availability. Vacation homes in our area rent quickly during the high season; I recommend you finalize your reservation no later than April.
We have had great success with wedding parties and family vacations. My guests have been very pleased; references are available upon request.
Property is sometimes owner occupied, in separate unit off back of house; but main house & main front entrance is completely private to guests. You may occasionally run into us or our (very freindly, quiet) Labs in the back yard/patio area, or in & out of the driveway, but overall, your stay in the main house is very private.
50% deposit due upon booking & contract signature. We take checks, cash or credit card/checking via PayPal. If you use PayPal, there is a 3% service charge added on.
No daily housekeeping provided. Once you are here, it's all yours. (lawn & garbage service is provided). Pillows, blankets, comforters & towels are supplied by owner, but sheets are to be supplied by tenants. There is an $125 optional linen fee if you would prefer us to provide the linen service. There is a mandatory $80 cleaning fee upon check-out. Pets welcome with prior permission & extra damage deposit & $125 rug cleaning fee. We are a NON-smoking property, but you may smoke outside. If interior of house smells of smoke, your damage deposit WILL be retained.
*Please note - There are 2 Labrador Retrievers (very people & dog friendly) on the property & an outdoor cat. Some guests do bring their pets, & although rugs are cleaned often & vaccumed between parties, if you have serious pet allergy issues, Ellery House may not be the best choice for you.
