Cummaquid Retreat
In the charming Cummaquid section of Barnstable awaits the glistening pool house, a haven of single-level luxury that promises an unforgettable vacation experience. Outdoors, dive into the rejuvenating ambiance with the heated, saltwater pool, expansive enough for both playful games and serious laps. The 2,500 sq. ft. patio becomes the ideal spot for lively gatherings; whether you're enjoying a BBQ meal at the spacious table shaded by large umbrellas or sharing stories by the ambiently-lit stone firepit as the evening draws in. Stepping inside, the house dazzles with an aura of "White. Light. Bright." The chef's kitchen is a culinary dream, boasting a professional range, stainless and granite finishes, and an array of top-notch appliances and cookware, including an Italian Clad set and a NESPRESSO machine. The seamless flow from the kitchen to the dining area, and subsequently the cozy living room, epitomizes modern comfort with hints of classic elegance. The patio and pool views are just a step away, ensuring the beauty of the outdoors is never too far. Comfort knows no bounds in the sleeping quarters. All rooms are thoughtfully situated on one level, ensuring ease and accessibility. The master bedroom, airy and inviting, offers a grand king-size bed and an ensuite bath, complete with a step-in shower and double sink vanity. The second bedroom is equally spacious, featuring another king-size bed, a smart TV, and a cozy workspace for those occasional emails. The third bedroom is fun-packed with sturdy bunk beds sleeping four. The house's lower level hosts a TV room with a 64” TV, perfect for young ones, while the garage is a treasure trove of entertainment, boasting a ping pong table and beach essentials. With central air conditioning, smart/apple TV, and high-speed Wi-Fi, it truly encapsulates modern luxury in a serene setting.

Reviews
Tammy
We had a family emergency on the Cape and needed to extend our stay as our previous home was rebooked. I found Cummaquid and reached out last minute frantically. The host went above and beyond aiding our family. I could not have been happier with the service! The house itself is a dream! All of my children loved it and said that the decor was exactly what they would want in their dream house. One of my sons needed to get back to work, so the office served him well with the outdoor entrance that allowed him to come and go on his timeline without bothering anyone in the attached bedroom. The master was fabulous and the basement served for a place to gather. The kitchen had every gadget you could ever need including a Ninja blender for our smoothie makers. We enjoyed making samores around the firepit on our last night. Whoever the contractor was who did this remodel knows style!! I highly recommend this home and host!
