About this property

Hear the ocean at Horseneck Beach from spacious family-friendly historic home

We are fourth generation lovers of Westport Point looking for someone to enjoy our home as much as we do while experiencing all the point has to offer: going to the beach, kayaking, canoeing or sailing, fishing, birding, hiking, wine and beer tasting, great seafood and music on the wharf, even square dancing. Refresh after the beach with an outdoor shower. Enjoy a covered veranda that runs the length of the 1840-built home, eat meals, lounge and read on the screened in porch, relax under a tree in the back yard, gather around the piano, or watch a movie on a 55 inch TV. Space to spread out--25'x25' eat in kitchen, 25'x30' living room, den upstairs and down.

About the host

Your host

Host profile image
We bought a home here after visiting for 15 years, and we did that because my mom came here as a kid for years. We are very attached to this spot -- love the beach and the quiet.

Why they chose this property

We love the historic qualities of this home, built in 1840 by Captain Manchester. It takes us back to an earlier era, when things moved more slowly -- as they should on vacation!

What makes this property unique

Walk to the wharf for oysters or lobster boat watching; bike to the beach; friendly neighbors and townspeople.
