Step into a world where history seamlessly intertwines with modern luxury. 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. But that's not all. Just around the corner lies the picturesque Chase Park with its iconic Godfrey Windmill and the intriguing Chatham Labyrinth. Whether you're taking a leisurely walk or seeking an adventure, you're always surrounded by the captivating beauty of one of Chatham's most upscale neighborhoods. But the outdoor allure of this property doesn't stop in its vicinity. Embrace the essence of alfresco living with a variety of spaces tailored to relaxation and entertainment. Whether it's lounging on the covered porch, hosting dinner on the adjacent patio, or savoring grilled delights from the gas grill on the quaint brick patio, the options are endless. The heated pool at the rear, is surrounded by a brand-new patio, inviting you for a refreshing dip. As the evening approaches, dip into the hot tub, then gather around the propane-powered fire pit for a night of stargazing. An exclusive game room awaits, stocked with ping pong, foosball, and a TV lounge. This home isn't just a stay; it's an experience.

KEY Curation Notes

The heated pool, hot tub, and gas fire pit are the center of outdoor life here. The entire rear patio area is screened from street view, giving a genuinely private feel for a property this close to Chatham Village.
Oyster Pond Beach is a 5-minute walk and Main Street is 8 minutes. The location puts beach access and downtown dining, shopping, and Cape Cod League Baseball within easy walking distance in opposite directions.
Three of the seven bedrooms are primary suites with private en-suite baths — one on the main level, two upstairs. The remaining four bedrooms upstairs share 2.5 baths and include a range of configurations: a shared king/twin room, and two bunk rooms (each with a full-size double on the bottom, one with a pull-out trundle).
The game room over the garage has ping pong, foosball, an arcade game, and its own TV lounge — a dedicated kids' space that functions independently of the main house.
The kitchen and dining setup is sized for the full group. A chef's kitchen with a large island dining table for 8–10 flows into a separate primary dining room, with multiple lounge areas on the main level.
The house is a preserved 1848 original with wide-plank wood floors, period glass doorknobs, and exposed brick — distinctive character for a home this size, rather than a generic renovation.
Pool season runs Memorial Day through Columbus Day weekend. Outside that window the pool is not operational.

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.
