The spacious living room has a large TV for movie nights and seating for 6. We also have a well-stocked cabinet with cards, puzzles, and board games.

The kitchen/dining area has a large table and the kitchen is fully equipped including pots, pans, cutlery, kitchen tools and gadgets, and dinnerware.

There are two full bathrooms with showers (no tubs), one of which is en suite to a queen bedroom. All bedrooms have bedding, linens, new mattresses, and either dressers or benches to store your belongings. There are window AC units in each bedroom and the sunroom (June-Sept).

The bunk room also has a smart TV.

This is indoor and outdoor living at its best with WiFi and Smart TV, deck, patio, fire pit, hammock, and gas grill. Plenty of room for yard games (corn hole, bocce, ladder toss and some others are available).

My husband and I live in Boston and are both working professionals.

Why they chose this property

We always had dreams of owning our own beach house, and are excited to share Pleasantville with families or friends looking to enjoy the beach. The house is named "Pleasantville" due to it's location on Pleasant Harbor.

What makes this property unique

We really love the proximity to the beach, views of the water from the home, and the family neighborhood. Added benefit of no Cape Cod bridge traffic!
