KPort Concierge is honored to share with you the opportunity to vacation in the iconic Play House on Parsons Beach. Now enjoyed by descendants of the Parsons family and fortunate guests, the home has an incredible story and also an extraordinary location that is not to be missed. The Play House is a fully equipped 3,000 square foot home on Parsons Beach, a private, gently sloping sandy beach just 40 yards from the front door. Built in 1909, the Play House has seen generations of Parsons family members in addition to their honored guests, including Cole Porter, who happened to be a fellow glee club member and roommate of Humphrey Parsons at Yale University. Rightfully named the Play House with a stage in the living room, a game of charades or a small family production seems a bit more spectacular knowing those who previously performed on that very stage. The spacious living room also features a fireplace, a long dining table, and cable TV. With luscious green grass and the ocean out front, this is the perfect place to begin or end your day. Another favorite hangout spot is the large, well-equipped kitchen. Lounge on comfy chairs, bar stools, and a kitchen table or step out to the deck. Additionally, there are plenty of games in the game closet for you to enjoy during your stay. Upstairs, three large bedrooms overlook the front lawn and ocean, and two smaller bedrooms overlook the private rear yard.
While the interior of the home offers history, comfort, and spaciousness, the eye catching feature of the home is the sparking ocean just steps away. Walk right out the front door onto a grass terrace surrounded by flower gardens and enjoy a yard game or cup of coffee. Then, head to the private, sandy beach just a short stroll across the lawn. Spend your day sitting on the beach, surfing, fishing, and taking in the beauty of Maine. Bring kayaks and boards to ride the waves, and there is no need to lug them back to your car; you can leave them on the beach deck for the next day's fun. The outside of the house offers a front yard with a flower garden surrounded lawn sitting area and, further down the lawn, a deck overlooking the beach and ocean. The back of the house offers a deck sitting area with a grill and a private outdoor shower. All towels, sheets, beach chairs, and umbrellas are provided so that you can travel light. Dock Square, Kennebunkport is only 3 miles away, with many restaurants, boat rides, shopping, museums, and weekly activities. Wells restaurants are even closer, as well as Big Daddy’s, the best ice cream in Maine!
Please note, the Play House is a large 3,000 square foot home that is connected to a separate 2,500 square foot home. There is a locked separation and complete privacy between the two units that only share one wall.
