Summary:

Captain Shaw Norris House



The Space:

Don't miss your chance to book this incredible historic beach view home, originally built in 1859, boasting modern amenities and a to-die-for rooftop deck. The three-story home in East Chop features ocean views and abundant private outdoor space. Choose between beachcombing on the sand or admiring the water from home.

Very clean and spacious home. Easy check in process. Nothing is really within a comfortable waking distance so be prepared to bring a vehicle, rent a vehicle, Uber, or use the bus.
