About this property

A Perfect Family Beach House!

Former location of the Matunuck Post Office from 1891-1903, this modern airy beach house was remodeled in 2015 from the studs, with great attention to detail, including leathered countertops throughout, sliding serving windows from the wet bar to the deck, pocket screen door, a large outdoor shower, while keeping the original staircase…just to name a few. Enter the first floor of the home from the large deck with a covered gazebo, the first floor of the home boasts a wet bar with serving windows, extensively furnished wrap around leathered granite countertop kitchen, spacious living room with comfy furniture, a queen size pull out sleeper, a queen size bedroom and a bathroom with shower. The second floor has 3 queen bedrooms, a bathroom with shower, and laundry. The home is completely furnished with linens and towels, books, video and board games, guitar, TVs in each bedroom and living room, high speed internet, window AC in each bedroom, large deck with a covered gazebo and a separate patio fire pit, both with substantial seating, as well as beach chairs, beach carts and coolers. The property is mostly surrounded by beautiful primitive stone walls with mature trees, soft grass around the house area, with an extended side yard where you’ll find a relaxing platform swing and a slack line obstacle course for all ages/abilities among the mature trees. There is a vegetable and herb garden for your convenience, with crop dependent on conditions and useage.

Providence is 40 minutes away with the TF Green Airport 30 minutes away. This home is a short 1.9 miles (4 min drive) to East Matunuck Beach, one of the nicest beaches in New England, with a straight on view of Block Island and a long large rock jetty to climb on and watch the boats leaving Galilee (Block Island Ferry), and ideal for fishing. The Matunuck Oyster Bar is a 3 minute drive around the corner with other restaurants across the street and past the beach into Jerusalem, and the public park with basketball and tennis courts, soccer and baseball fields and a playground are just a short stroll away. Oh yeah, there’s also a 6 person hot tub and outdoor gas grilL, 2 fire pits and a large side yard with a slackline obstacle course for the kids...and adults. This house is the PERFECT family beach house getaway!

We’ll stocked and clean home
Our stay was wonderful. We have a girls weekend Once a year and we are always looking for the perfect home. This house was as close as we have come. We need at least two twin beds in one of the rooms as we are 6 adults and some like to sleep alone otherwise we would for sure be returning to this home every year. It had everything you could need for a perfect vacation right down to condiments and toiletries such as shampoo/conditioner. Makes packing a light job. This house gets an A++!

Birthday Celebration
My family planned a weekend to celebrate my birthday and we couldn’t have been happier with this house. It is beautiful, nicely decorated, has everything you can possibly need and extremely clean. We are a family of 8 including a 3 and 6 year old. We loved going in the jacuzzi and the kids loved the obstacle course. Unfortunately we lost one day to rain so we were not able to enjoy all of the outdoor amenities they have in the garage. I wish we could have stayed an extra day! The house is about 30 minutes from Newport which makes it very convenient. Some of the reviews mentioned the close proximity to Route 1. Yes, the house is on Route 1 and it is close, but we didn’t see that as a problem at all and didn’t really notice the noise from the traffic. We highly recommend this beautiful home. Thank you for renting your home to us.

Great house
The house worked so well for our family of 5 adults and 1 toddler. We loved the outdoor shower and the hot tub. We didn't get to use all the sports equipment in the garage.

Girls weekend
This property is perfect for our annual Girls Weekend/college reunion trip! Plenty of room for all in the house. We thoroughly enjoy the deck and the hot tub! The location is great with several fabulous restaurants close by and Newport just a short 30min drive. This is our 2nd stay at this property and we can’t wait for the next time!

We are a family of 4 with 2 kids ages 10 and 7. We purchased this house as a family beach house and are looking to share it with you. Although this house is new to the vacation rental market, we have 10+ years experience with a vacation rental. Check out our other rental #918321 for reviews, or for a potential future vacation to Northern New Mexico.

Why they chose this property

We had been looking at many beach houses for a few months, but because this house is right of off Rt 1 and 1.9miles to the beach, we almost did not consider this house at all. Boy would we have regretted that! The minute you pull into the driveway, you completely forget about the fact that just pulled off of Rt 1. The driveway drops down away from the traffic into a nice well kept yard with mature trees and primitive stone walls. The home is shielded from Rt 1 by a row of shurbs/trees as well as a secondary stockade fence. You cannot see traffic from almost anywhere and the sound of the traffic quickly becomes a white noise in the background. Our kids were running around the yard, climbing the stone walls, and were playing hide and seek within minutes. The covered deck is large and spacious, and the outdoor shower is nicer than most. We hadn't even made it into the house yet, and new that this house was "The One" as we felt we had just completely escaped from the hustle and bustle of the north east and were on vacation already! Once we walked into the home and saw how nicely it was, we didn't care to look at any other houses that day. But all that was left was the beach. Now, we had looked at many beach houses and many, many beaches, both public and private, all the way from Plymouth, MA to Sandwich, MA, and South Dennis, MA to Westerly RI. The drive was a very short 4 min drive, and when we walked onto East Matunuck Beach, the kids immediately ran down toward the water and started making sand angels in the rockless sand. As we followed them over the dunes, I was talking to my wife about how this was the most beautiful beach we have seen during our search. When I was halfway to the water, I realized I was talking to myself. My wife had stopped at the dunes because she was struck by the beauty of this beach. We were sold! An offer was made almost immediately, and lucky for us (and you), after multiple failed offers elsewhere, this one was accepted.
