We are water activity people. We love North Chatham: It is like " Nantucket without the Ferry ride." Once here, you are by the sea and of the sea--the presence of the beach surrounds you. Water sports and family fun top it off-- a gathering place loved by all who come to this property. Amazing views all day long and stars bright at night. We have been improving this property since moving in in 1994 and just fully remodeled the whole house in 2020 . We long ago spent Summers at beaches from the Jersey Shore, CT, LI, to Adirondack lakes.... Chatham tops them all. The tides are a constant and changing feature. Three Tide clocks helps you plan the day by the sea. Book a seal tour or fishing charter or tennis clinics at the CBI tennis hut.
Gregory Johnson, Ellen Johnson purchased this House in 1994
Why Gregory Johnson, Ellen Johnson chose North Chatham
Unique views and beach with surf sounds and kid friendly warm salt creek. Upside down design affords long sea and harbor, and our salt pond views. A classic Cape Cat-walk takes you to our large beach, chairs, kayaks, SUP. New 2021: New full "second Master Bathroom ensuite" and new laundry room. Sorry, our strict limit is 5 guests max. 3 cars max. overnight. Strictly enforced. Blink security cameras monitor outside entrances only. Guest/ Car limits strictly enforced. Be sure 5 guest limit, 3 cars overbite is a "FIT" for you.
What makes this House unique
One of a kind! Stunning ocean, surf, harbor, seal views year round include outer beach incl. National Seashore, 2 precarious cottages remaining... So many fun activities on premises or just steps away... You can be on the beach, relaxing, reading, fishing, or swimming long before the island ferries depart..or before you would have unloaded your car at a public beach. We are a quiet family home with similar neighbors. Please respect their right to quiet enjoyments we expect and do. That is the reason for our policy and strict limit of 5 guests and 3 overnight cars.
