About this property
A Perfect Family Beach House!
Former location of the Matunuck Post Office from 1891-1903, this modern airy beach house was remodeled in 2015 from the studs, with great attention to detail, including leathered countertops throughout, sliding serving windows from the wet bar to the deck, pocket screen door, a large outdoor shower, while keeping the original staircase…just to name a few. Enter the first floor of the home from the large deck with a covered gazebo, the first floor of the home boasts a wet bar with serving windows, extensively furnished wrap around leathered granite countertop kitchen, spacious living room with comfy furniture, a queen size pull out sleeper, a queen size bedroom and a bathroom with shower. The second floor has 3 queen bedrooms, a bathroom with shower, and laundry. The home is completely furnished with linens and towels, books, video and board games, guitar, TVs in each bedroom and living room, high speed internet, window AC in each bedroom, large deck with a covered gazebo and a separate patio fire pit, both with substantial seating, as well as beach chairs, beach carts and coolers. The property is mostly surrounded by beautiful primitive stone walls with mature trees, soft grass around the house area, with an extended side yard where you’ll find a relaxing platform swing and a slack line obstacle course for all ages/abilities among the mature trees. There is a vegetable and herb garden for your convenience, with crop dependent on conditions and useage.
Providence is 40 minutes away with the TF Green Airport 30 minutes away. This home is a short 1.9 miles (4 min drive) to East Matunuck Beach, one of the nicest beaches in New England, with a straight on view of Block Island and a long large rock jetty to climb on and watch the boats leaving Galilee (Block Island Ferry), and ideal for fishing. The Matunuck Oyster Bar is a 3 minute drive around the corner with other restaurants across the street and past the beach into Jerusalem, and the public park with basketball and tennis courts, soccer and baseball fields and a playground are just a short stroll away. Oh yeah, there’s also a 6 person hot tub and outdoor gas grilL, 2 fire pits and a large side yard with a slackline obstacle course for the kids...and adults. This house is the PERFECT family beach house getaway!

About the host
Hosted by Brian T. Mello

We are a family of 4 with 2 kids ages 10 and 7. We purchased this house as a family beach house and are looking to share it with you. Although this house is new to the vacation rental market, we have 10+ years experience with a vacation rental. Check out our other rental #918321 for reviews, or for a potential future vacation to Northern New Mexico.
Why they chose this property
We had been looking at many beach houses for a few months, but because this house is right of off Rt 1 and 1.9miles to the beach, we almost did not consider this house at all. Boy would we have regretted that! The minute you pull into the driveway, you completely forget about the fact that just pulled off of Rt 1. The driveway drops down away from the traffic into a nice well kept yard with mature trees and primitive stone walls. The home is shielded from Rt 1 by a row of shurbs/trees as well as a secondary stockade fence. You cannot see traffic from almost anywhere and the sound of the traffic quickly becomes a white noise in the background. Our kids were running around the yard, climbing the stone walls, and were playing hide and seek within minutes. The covered deck is large and spacious, and the outdoor shower is nicer than most. We hadn't even made it into the house yet, and new that this house was "The One" as we felt we had just completely escaped from the hustle and bustle of the north east and were on vacation already! Once we walked into the home and saw how nicely it was, we didn't care to look at any other houses that day. But all that was left was the beach. Now, we had looked at many beach houses and many, many beaches, both public and private, all the way from Plymouth, MA to Sandwich, MA, and South Dennis, MA to Westerly RI. The drive was a very short 4 min drive, and when we walked onto East Matunuck Beach, the kids immediately ran down toward the water and started making sand angels in the rockless sand. As we followed them over the dunes, I was talking to my wife about how this was the most beautiful beach we have seen during our search. When I was halfway to the water, I realized I was talking to myself. My wife had stopped at the dunes because she was struck by the beauty of this beach. We were sold! An offer was made almost immediately, and lucky for us (and you), after multiple failed offers elsewhere, this one was accepted.
