Rachel's Cove - Elegant East Orleans Waterfront with Central AC

This home is represented by Nauset Rental, a local vacation rental management company.

Thoughtfully designed in keeping with the Cape's historic charm, this beautiful waterfront East Orleans property offers an "old Cape" feel with all of the comforts of modern living. Candles in the fireplaces make for a warm and charming atmosphere, and the entire house is filled with natural light throughout the day. Enjoy many well-appointed amenities, including a brand new outdoor shower, central AC, and kayaks and bikes to explore the surrounding area. Stunning water views from almost every room in the house, and well-appointed outdoor space to enjoy the scenery as well! You can easily access the tranquil waters of Rachel's Cove, an inlet of Town Cove, via a private path through the backyard. Launch the kayaks from the shore and paddle out for a day of exploring!

Recently purchased by a new owner, the house has been refreshed with new furniture, paint, refinished floors and more for the 2020 season. Thoughtful furnishings include 2 seven-foot sofas and a dining table with leaf extension and seating for 10. Each of the property's three bedrooms are ensuite, and an additional half bath on the main level features a washer and dryer for your convenience. The home sleeps 8 guests comfortably in beds; 10 with use of the pullout couch.

Located in the exclusive Snow Point Association neighborhood, this home's private East Orleans setting is both tranquil and scenic. Wake up to see a family of ducks or swans in the Cove, or even a crane. The entire peninsula is fantastic for bird watching! And on a clear night, the stars are magnificent, with no light pollution to interrupt the view. In addition to the backyard views of Rachel's Cove, there is also a beautiful vista of Nauset outer beach from across the street. An easy 15 minute stroll around the peninsula offers stunning views of Town Cove, Fort Hill, Coast Guard Lighthouse and the Atlantic Ocean. You will also have access to the private Snow Point Association beach, a small sandy landing on Town Cove. Enjoy utmost privacy in the neighborhood and in the yard itself. Set on conservation land, the house is surrounded by trees with no direct views of neighbors.

Nauset Beach is 3 miles/under 10 minutes by car. You can also bike to the beach via back roads in about 15-20 minutes. Skaket Beach on the bayside is just over 4 miles/10-15 minutes by car. Freshwater swimming at Crystal Lake, Pilgrim Lake and Nickerson State Park are all within a 10-15 minute drive. Main Street and downtown Orleans are just a few minutes away for shopping, restaurants and bike trail access. The shops at East Orleans are even closer by for morning coffee, ice cream and sandwiches for the beach.
