About this property
American Four-Square completely renovated, easy walk to the beach!
In town for a family vacation, beach getaway with friends or a wedding nearby? Check out why our classic home would perfectly fit your group. This classic American Four Square home was built 100 years ago but is brand new inside and out! Featuring modern and new appliances and a new heating and air system, this house is a perfect base of operations for your vacation!
The kitchen has granite tops and stainless steel appliances, as well as many smaller necessities such as a coffee maker/Keurig and crockpot. The family room has a large smart TV with cable and an impressive library of DVDs. Plenty of comfy furniture and plenty of board and card games await! There is a good-sized half bath downstairs and a laundry room with a full sized washer and dryer.
Upstairs, the master has a queen bed, full bath, nice closet and TV. The second bedroom has a queen bed, closet and TV and shares a full bath with the third bedroom, which features a single bunk over a double bed and also has a TV.
Based on the amount of bedrooms/beds, we suggest the house comfortably sleeps 7 people (but we’ve got two twin cots) available upon request in advance of your stay if you need to squeeze in a couple more guests).
The whole house has a great WiFi connection and there are plenty of outlets for all your devices! The first floor is all hardwood except ceramic in the bath and laundry and the upstairs is carpeted.
Outside there is a nice covered porch with rocking chairs in the front and a private backyard with a fire pit in the back.
If you’re not sure how to spend your time in a charming Cape Charles, in the house you’ll see we’ve provided our recommendation of restaurants, things to do, and of course, where to shop!

Why they chose this property
This is our first year offering this vacation rental at 535 Plum Street. We purchased the home in November 2016, went through the historic district board review for approvals before work could commence. Work began April/May 2017 and officially finished in December 2017 with minor changes occurring through April 2018 (furniture). We are happy with the end results and we know you will find the home just as comfortable for your family as we find it for ours.
In the back you will find a deck with patio furniture (cushions in the shed) and a fire pit. The shed offers a charcoal grill, beach gear, a cooler and two bikes (bring your own helmet). There is an outdoor shower on the side of the house to rinse off the sand before coming inside.
We are just a few easy walking (or biking!) blocks from the beach or even to the shops on Main Street. We are very near the park and children's play area.
Free WiFi is provided and a smart TV with Roku (using your own account) a blue-ray player is available with a collection of movies.
A Graco Pack 'n Play (with bassinet) for infant sleeping, High Chair with a splash mat for underneath, and a few child dishes are available.
Bedrooms: 2 with queen size bed, 1 with bunk bed - twin over a double. Air Mattress are available upon request (advanced notice). Linens are new!
There are a full washer and dryer in the laundry room and and rack to hang your wet clothes to dry.
In the family room there are a few board/card games and a full size checkerboard on the game table.
Just a few reminders - follow the speed limit signs as they are truly enforced! Also be sure to park your car by BACKING IN on the angled parking on Mason Avenue.
There are some great shops and restaurants both in Cape Charles and around. We hope you enjoy your stay in the quaint "Mayberry" town of Cape Charles as we do.
