About this property

LAST MINUTE DEAL ---SEPTEMBER....Serene, Peaceful and Relaxing Setting


Our home is located on 5.5 acres of woodlands surrounded by hundreds of acres of protected forest, yet only 10 minutes away from Mattapoisett Harbor and the beaches on Buzzards Bay. No dealing with Cape Cod traffic and congestion! Enjoy wind or kite surfing at Ned's Point where the wind is always up. Take a swim and picnic while enjoying the view of Falmouth and the Elizabeth Islands across Buzzards Bay . Bring your boat and rent a mooring from the Mattapoisett Boatyard with all of Buzzards Bay there for you to explore! Just sixty minutes from Boston, thirty-five minutes from Providence, and one hour from Cape Cod, Mattapoisett is a waterfront gem!
You will wake up every morning to the songs of the various birds that make their home here. Sit in the solarium off the kitchen and watch the birds fly up to the feeders as you relax with a good book!
At any time you may see the wild turkeys cruise through the yard on their daily search for bugs. If it gets too hot on the decks you can move to the screen porch off of the back patio where you will feel a light breeze and enjoy another beautiful view of the forest. The covered porch overlooking the yard and gardens is another shaded area to enjoy.
In the evening you can relax in front of the fire pit located where the lawn meets the back woods. You will find an ample supply of dry wood ready to go.
Pick fresh organic vegetables from our expansive garden for your daily meals. Add them to something you cook up on our Weber Grille located on the patio by the screen porch.
After your meal you can take a walk or ride a bike down to Branch Brook or a little further to the Mattapoisett River.
You can also ride bikes into Mattapoisett Village on back roads. The quaint, historic village is very charming. Many whaleboats were built and launched from Shipyard Park in the early 1800s.
Our house is post and beam with many antiques and it has woodland views from every window.
The house has open construction on the first floor so the living room, kitchen and solarium all flow together. There is one bedroom and full bath on the first floor and two bedrooms and full bath with separate tub and shower on the second floor. The washer and dryer are in the basement which is finished and has plenty of comfortable seating. Play a game of Foosball or chess or checkers on the unique giant chess and checker table with large chess and checker pieces.
The west side of the house has two decks and a covered porch. The lower deck is connected to a brick walkway that leads to the patios and screen porch. The front of the house faces the woods, forming a privacy barrier from the road.
Our house is suitable for up to six people who are interested in the solitude of the woods but also enjoy saltwater activities. A beach pass for all of Mattapoisett Beaches and the town wharf is available for you!
July is a busy, fun filled month in Mattapoisett. Some of the events are listed below, but visit the the town website for more detailed and complete information.

• July 4th: A five mile road race around scenic Mattapoisett Village.
• July 30th: Triathalon starting at Mattapoisett Harbor.

About the host

Hosted by marykcabral@gmail.com

Host profile image
Mary and I are both retired teachers. We built our Post and Beam house ourselves using the trees from the land. We raised our 4 children here and now wish to share our piece of Paradise with others who appreciate peace and the beauty of nature in both the woods and the ocean!

Why they chose this property

Our home is surrounded by forest yet only 7 minutes by car or 20 by bike from the Harbor and beaches of Mattapoisett Village. We are a quick commute (60) minutes from Boston, Providence, Cape Cod and Plymouth. When you return to the house from an enjoyable day touring the sights or beaching you can relax and listen to the wind in the trees!

What makes this property unique

Quiet woodland setting with just the sound of the wind in the trees! No Cape Cod crowds or traffic to deal with. We are 60 minutes from Boston and 35 minutes from Providence or Plymouth, no need to deal with Cape traffic and crowds..
Bring your boat and rent a mooring from the Mattapoisett Boatyard.
Enjoy the bounty of our organic garden when you are staying here!
If you wind or kite surf on Ned's Point the wind is always up and the grass provides a great area to open rig your sails. Ned's Point also has picnic tables, bathrooms and an outside shower for your use.
