About this property

Ocean front oasis with renovation nestled in the dune on a private beach.

OWL House! Updated, sophisticated, “attention to detail” beach-front cottage. Sunny, airy vaulted living room. Second bedroom is a walk-up sleeping loft with skylight, views, and built in storage. Back porch provides an extension to the house, space to grill, eat and relax with privacy and protection from the weather. Outdoor teak furniture, propane fire pit, and seasonal outdoor shower. The private beach is steps around the dune, camp fires are highly encouraged! Renovated full bathrooms, 2 ornamental fireplaces, 2 flat screen Roku TV’s, games, oozes character and charm.

Full kitchen, dishwasher, dining area with a generous farmhouse table that seats 8, an ideal spot to spread out for remote work. Pack as if you were going to be on a yacht as the home is nearly 100 years old, limited storage but the hidden washer and dryer make packing light a breeze!

Our family oasis has been updated to include security technology to assure comfort and safety. Wifi deadbolt for self check in and exterior monitored cameras.

Sandwich is the oldest town on the Cape with quintessential experiences beyond the beaches. We are looking forward to sharing this bespoke slice of heaven with you. Thank you for choosing Owl House!

Terrific time at this gem of a spot! Everything was so comfortable and considerate (kitchen supplies - including coffee). Lots of extras (fire pit on the deck / charging ports everywhere, etc)Off season getaway meant tons of parking and extra privacy! Convenient to stores/P.O. etc too! We plan to return !

The cottage was everything we thought it would be and more. Waking up, rolling out of bed and going to watch the sunrise was so beautiful. The cottage was so homey and comfy. The added touches of board games, coffee and chips was much appreciated. The description was 100% accurate. Kerry checked in on us to make sure everything was good. Sitting out on back patio, was so peaceful. The private beach was as also perfect and quiet. A Highlight was being able to do a campfire on beach. Thanks Kerry for everything. We would book again if in area and also recommend to friends and family traveling in area.

About the host

Hosted by Kerry Oconnor

Host profile image
We are a blended family from New England and are now empty nesters. Most vacations have been spent at the Cape for years and we decided to plant our feet in the sand and have a special place to use and share with our friends and family and travelers who also enjoy the Cape.

Why they chose this property

There is something a bit magical about the place. It feels custom, private, a true beach get away but still stylish. We can drive to the cottage in a little over an hour from our home.

What makes this property unique

It is not just on the beach it is IN the beach!
