Ideal family escape at Sunken Meadow Beach (bay views, sleeps 12)

Spacious house in bayside North Eastham is the perfect getaway for one or more families to balance summertime access with summertime chill. Tucked off the street and perched on a small hill, the home offers privacy; and a sprawling and thoughtfully-furnished deck affords marsh and bay views as soon as you step outside the homey living space. Only steps from Sunken Meadow Beach, a cape waterscape that’s perfect for families, sun and fun are within walking distance. And the location on the cape itself, whether it be donuts at the Fairway, lobster rolls at Arnold’s, late night Ben & Jerry’s, or all that Wellfleet and the upper cape has to offer, makes the outside world conveniently within reach.
Three bedrooms with a den and loft easily accommodate 12 people, and the loft is the perfect sanctuary for kids to be kids while adults can be adults. Two full bathrooms (one on each main floor) serve everyday needs, while an outdoor shower provides the extra touch of the cape in the summer. Multiple TVs, a DVD library, and internet access provide in-home entertainment, and the fully-supplied kitchen will satisfy a cook’s needs (in addition to the Weber grill).
Recently purchased and retouched, the layout includes three floors of quintessential cape living. The entry floor presents a den with a queen-size pull-out couch, a full bath with washer / dryer, and a private back bedroom with a queen bed. The main floor features a large living & dining area that spills onto a 500 square foot, well-apportioned wrap-around deck that’s perfect for relaxing after a day at the beach and grilling on clear summer nights. A wide and windowed galley kitchen and 2nd full bath split the living area on the main floor from two identical queen-size back bedrooms. The upstairs loft, well-lit by two skylights that present distant ocean views, offers four full beds and a sofa and large chairs that will consume the would-be lounger.
