Welcome to Wind, Sand & Stars! Not just a destination but an experience.....this house is the ultimate waterfront escape offering an unmatched summer setting rarely available. Whether it is the dazzling sunsets over the water that light up the sky and can be seen from every room, the direct access to a salt water sandy beach at the edge of the harbor right outside your doorstep or star gazing from the panoramic roof deck, this property has the best of all worlds.
Accessed via a long rustic dirt road that winds through salt water marshes, you will arrive at this truly unique one-of-a-kind setting. The house is situated literally on its own private coastal sand dune and sitting alone on a secluded peninsula that juts out into the water. The property offers the utmost in privacy & has absolutely stunning 360 degree water views; from one side you view out across Blackfish Creek to Wellfleet Harbor and beyond to Cape Cod Bay, the other side of the house looks out into pristine salt marshes and rivers. Once here, wander down your own gently sloping staircase with direct access to a semi-private sandy salt water beach waiting for you right at your toes. From here you can walk along the beach, wade into the harbor's shallow tidal waters or explore the flats.
The house sits on the banks of where Wellfleet Harbor, Blackfish Creek and Loagy Bay all converge. Enjoy a wade into these safe, warm and calm shallow tidal waters, which are equally great for the kids. At low tide you can walk hundreds of yards out on the flats and to various sand bars, while hunting for hermit crabs, shells etc. and see up close and personal the oyster farms that yield the renowned Wellfleet oysters. For deep water swimming, high surf and world class beaches, we offer a free parking pass to the nearby Cape Cod National Seashore, including the famous Marconi Beach which is less than a 5 minute drive away. Numerous other town and state beaches are within a short driving distance.
The house has a rarely seen ultra-functional layout offering dual master bedrooms both with en-suite private bathrooms and sitting areas overlooking water as far as the eye can see. The slightly larger of the 2 master suites features a queen size bed and updated bathroom (shower stall, no tub). The other master suite offers a queen size bed with original bathroom (shower stall, no tub). The 3rd bedroom is small and ideally outfitted for kids as it has bunk beds. All the bedrooms are on the 2nd level of the house. The 1st floor main level has a large living area with dual couches, one of which is a full size pull-out sofa sleeper which sleeps 2. There is a fully applianced kitchen with open design and a small breakfast bar/island. The separate dining area overlooks the harbor and beyond with 180 degree water views. There is an additional 1/2 bathroom on this level. For those needing to plug in and do some work while away, there is an office with desk on the 2nd level which overlooks beautiful, peaceful rivers and salt water marshes. New state-of-the-art air conditioning system recently installed! Please note there is a spiral staircase required for access from the main living level up to the second floor bedrooms/office and then up to the roof deck.

**COVID-19 CLEANING** Please note that our staff has implemented cleaning best-practices to help ensure the safest environment possible. This includes sanitizing and disinfecting all high touch surfaces throughout the property. We also utilize a medical-grade fogging compound that is applied via machine to sanitize large portions of the house that would be otherwise difficult to clean and treat. This product is safe, environmentally friendly and non-toxic. Data sheet and specs can be sent upon request. As a result of increased cleaning protocols we have therefore extended the time it takes for our crew to turn-over the property prior to new guests arriving. As such we have pushed our check-in time back to 3:00 PM.
