About this property
Classic Summer Home | A Mile Walk To The Beach
Our goal is for you to feel at home and to be very comfortable during your stay in historic Mattapoisett Massachusetts – near the mouth of Cape Cod.
Built-in 1789 for the Dexter family, this historic house is a landmark located in the waterfront town of Mattapoisett, Mass. You will enjoy the immensely large yard, spacious kitchen, and living areas, and the short walk to Harbor beach, just like our family has for well over 80 years.
This is our family's personal home and we continue to reside in this home. It is our hope that you are comfortable lodging around the many family photos and artifacts without tampering with them.
It is a remodeled older home perfect for a family or multiple families or even a group of friends who will enjoy a clean, well-furnished space for vacation or small gatherings.
FEATURES:
★ Entire home plus more!
★ Fully equipped kitchen
★ Comfortable beds with snuggly pillows and blankets
★ Sitting areas
★ Laundry area
Guest access
You get the whole house to yourself. The driveway parking is safe and spacious without having to shuffle around to get in and out.
Other things to note
There are NO PETS ALLOWED in the house. If a pet is discovered at the property you WILL be charged $250, or terminate your stay at any time without a refund.
