About the host
Hosted by Patti Bushee
You have chosen the "House that George Built". I am George's third out of four. I was fortunate to be able to keep this charming seaside cottage and relive many childhood memories.
I currently reside in the mountains of the Southwest; but, make my way back to beautiful Moody Beach early Spring and late Fall to get everything ready for your enjoyment.
Please enjoy this home away form home and make some wonderful memories of your own!
Why they chose this property
My Dad George built this home. You will experience many of my Dad's special touches-- Maine slate floors and bricks that were brought in from historic areas of Boston. Purchased in 2017, I have updated it from top to bottom, still retaining the old school charm that my Dad put into it.
Come enjoy the upper deck. Listen to the roar of the Atlantic and smell the fresh sea air. Watch the sunset over the Marsh or observe kayakers paddle along the Tidal Rivers, while enjoying your freshly grilled fish and cocktail.
His four children enjoyed many Summers at beautiful Moody Beach, which is a 5 minute walk to either Public Right of Way. After a full day at the beach you can rinse off at the outdoor shower, with warm water! I know you will cherish this home away from home!
What makes this property unique
This darling single family home is perfect for your family vacation! There's a grassy yard to kick a ball around, a picnic table, and two grills are provided. The upper deck replete with Adirondack chairs and eating places is the perfect place to relax, morning or night.
The kitchen is equipped with anything you could possibly need. My Mom, Gloria, was a great baker, so she would approve of the new glass top stove/convection oven. There are puzzles, games, and art supplies, along with two Smart TVs for that occasional rainy day.
We offer everything you could want to enjoy your seaside vacation!
