This meticulously preserved 1848 home, situated in the heart of Chatham, showcases an alluring blend of original wood floors, Federalist period glass doorknobs, and exposed brickwork, harmoniously paired with contemporary touches of tile, granite, and stainless steel. Every corner of its vast 4,500 square feet exudes charm and sophistication, from the chef's kitchen decked with top-of-the-line appliances to the multiple lounges and a primary suite on the main level boasting a king-sized bed and private bath ensuite. Location is everything, and this property undoubtedly delivers. A short five-minute stroll takes you to the kid-friendly Oyster Pond Beach, while an eight-minute walk immerses you in the bustling ambiance of Main Street, Chatham, teeming with shops and eateries.

Inside the destination

Parking information
During peak hours at town beaches, parking stickers are required. Of course, most of our properties are directly on or within easy walking distance of private, neighborhood association beaches, so no pass is required. For those properties that aren’t right on or within walking distance a pass is necessary. You can stop by the town offices to pick up a weekly pass or pay per visit. Beach passes are issued by vehicle so are not transferable.

Reviews
Dan
We took a vacation with extended family and all stayed at this home - 3 families with multiple young children and a set of grandparents. It was perfect. Can't say a single negative thing about the house, the service, all of it. Wonderful pool, everything clean and lovely, perfect location for walking into town. We LOVED this place.
