Stepping onto the property of this historic grand manor, one is immediately enveloped by the charm of the Victorian era, from the enchanting rooftop cupola to the gleaming hardwood floors. Built-in 1856 for Sea Captain Russell Marston, the 5,600-square-foot estate stands as a testament to timeless elegance. Recent renovations have beautifully blended old-world allure with modern comforts, offering the perfect milieu for groups of up to 20. Every detail is thoughtfully considered, from high-end kitchen appliances to the expansive great room, making both entertaining and relaxing a breeze. The main floor boasts multiple living spaces, ensuring ample room for everyone, whether you're indulging in a movie night, savoring a book in the lounge, or letting the young ones enjoy the gaming area. Diverse sleeping arrangements span across three levels, with eight spacious bedrooms. The grandeur continues with a King suite complete with a luxurious ensuite bath featuring a soaking tub. Another highlight is the large King suite with its exterior entrance, offering a unique blend of privacy and access. And for those who ascend to the third level, a delightful array of rooms awaits, alongside gaming entertainment. But the indoors is just the beginning. Outdoors, the heated pool invites for sun-soaked days, complemented by the resort-style lounge. Come evening, the stone courtyard patio becomes an ideal gathering spot, with its upscale seating around a gas fire pit. And for those with a competitive spirit, the upcoming pickleball court beckons for friendly family tournaments. Set on over an acre of landscaped grounds, this estate offers endless opportunities for fun and relaxation. From soccer games in the vast yard to basketball matches in the driveway, every moment promises joy and togetherness. Not to forget, its prime location in the Centerville Historic District is a gateway to the best of Cape Cod, with a beach pass at the ready for those beach day excursions. Truly, this home isn’t just a vacation rental; it’s an experience, an unforgettable sojourn into luxury and leisure.

KEY Curation Notes

Historic 1856 Sea Captain's estate — 5,600 sq ft on 1.37 acres of professionally landscaped grounds, fully renovated with the original architectural details intact: rooftop Victorian cupola, coffered ceilings, grand winding staircase, and hardwood floors throughout.
Heated pool with cabana (fridge/freezer, outdoor rinse station, half bath), a stone courtyard with gas fire pit and grill on the opposite side of the house, and two second-level sundecks overlooking the pool — multiple distinct outdoor zones for a group of 20.
Private pickleball court on the grounds, plus a basketball hoop, cornhole, and a flat acre-plus lawn for games.
Whole-home generator — a meaningful practical amenity for a Cape Cod property sleeping 20.
Kids' bunk room (4 twins) and two gaming systems (Xbox and PlayStation on separate floors), plus a dedicated family room with board games — the property is well-differentiated between adult and kid spaces.
Less than a mile to Craigville Beach (beach pass provided by owners), with Four Seas Ice Cream, the 1856 Country Store, and a playground all within walking distance. Osterville dining is 5 minutes; Hyannis and island ferries are 10.

Reviews

Mary

This was the first time our family of six kids with spouses (ages 58 to mid-70s) ever got together for a week long reunion. It was an unforgettable week. We swam in the saltwater pool, and prepared remarkable meals in the well-equipped kitchen. Even had a clam boil one night. Every day we cooked up our specialties and enjoyed good food and great memories around the tables. It was a very special time for all of us in such a luxurious setting. Took a million pictures, hoping they will help us preserve the memories forever.
