Description from owner
Description
Our air-conditioned vacation home, The Laurel, is located at the end of an 800-ft.-long driveway on a secluded, two-acre lot overlooking Cape Cod National Seashore land. The house, which has been featured in a national magazine and two books, initially enjoyed a water view of Cape Cod Bay and 10-mile distant Provincetown from its small rooftop deck but trees conspired to take that view away but we still enjoys the expansive 360-degree view, sunsets and private sunning this contemporary "widow's walk" offers. Beaches are close by. The nearest bay beach (Fisher Beach) is 1-1/2 miles and Ballston Beach on the Atlantic is 2-1/2 miles. There is also a fresh-water pond about 2 miles from the house.
In addition to the two queen bedroom, there are two 18" thick air mattresses (one twin and one queen) that can be set up either in the downstairs bedroom or living room.
The owners live live in a small 1BR home (formally the "Guest House") that lies down a 150-foot long trail from the main house. The distance, change of elevation and trees protect your privacy.
Just bring yourself! We supply bed and bath linens, beach chairs, and more. The main house kitchen is nicely appointed and fully equipped. There's a dual fuel range and a refrigerator with ice and filtered water on the door. There is a full-size washer-dryer, screened porch, whirlpool bath, picnic table, gas and charcoal grills, a hammock and an outdoor shower...with a view. Enjoy quality audio/video system with X-Finity cable TV. We have wireless high speed internet (cable)..
There is a 50AP Charge Point EV charger you are welcome to use. You will be charged the actual cost of Electricity plus a $5 convenience fee
