Private Beach on Nantucket Sound - Walk to Beach, Town, Harbor!

Enjoy your beautiful private beach just steps away, central air-conditioning, and less than 3/4 mile to downtown Hyannis. Not beachfront, but just 100 yards is the short walk to gorgeous, sandy, private beach on Nantucket Sound with views of Great Island and the Kennedy Compound. Freshly updated inside with wide pine floors and a nice front porch with Adirondack chairs. A large deck with grill in the rear will allow you to enjoy resting at the house before and after the beach. A level lot, private dead-end street also make this home kid friendly. Less than 3/4 mile to downtown Hyannis and the harbor, where ferries depart frequently to Nantucket and Marthas Vineyard and where you can go on a charter fishing trip. Located between Sea Street Beach and Kalmus Beach where you can go from your beach for even longer walks on the beach. Tastefully decorated and impeccably clean, this house is perfect for families with children or couples.

Our house has a discreet place in history - This house was used in the early 1960s as a communications center and living quarters for the Secret Service when President Kennedy visited the family compound in Hyannisport.

We have a security camera in the front and shed area. They are monitored when the house is not rented.

House was exactly as advertised. Clean, comfortable, great neighborhood, and central air, which was key. And there's so much to see and do in the area. Kept 14-year-old twin boys busy and excited. We had a blast and will definitely be going back there next year.

Wonderful stay at a true gem of a house!

We spent a week here in April 2024 and had a fantastic time! We were a group of six - grandparents, parents, and two small kids and the house worked perfectly for us. It's a great location and space, especially the kid room for the kids and the nice back deck. Cecil was a great host - very communicative and went above and beyond to provide helpful information before and during our stay. The location was very close to the main areas of Hyannis and great restaurants. I would highly recommend staying here for your next Cape Cod vacation!

Wonderful Vacation Home and Location!

My husband and I enjoyed our end of Summer stay at this property. The home was clean, well equipped and for end of summer heat - we appreciated the AC! It is a very quiet neighborhood. Homes are well maintained. Short walk to the beach and we enjoyed the warm water, never crowded and fun to watch the island boats come and go. Highly recommend and look forward to a return visit!

Very enjoyable vacation week!

Our family of 7 thoroughly enjoyed our week at Cecil's house! The location is perfect with the very nice private beach a short walk away and everything else so close as well. We walked to and/or rode our bikes to MANY of the things we wanted to do, including: Main St. Hyannis which has tons of shopping and restaurants, the ferry to Nantucket and Martha's Vineyard, the Kennedy compound, and other non-private beaches. We definitely recommend Cecil's vacation home.

Absolutely wonderful location! Peace and Tranquility.

Our family enjoyed our stay in this fabulous house over Thanksgiving. The kitchen is well equipped, the log fire was very welcome and the bedrooms easily accommodated our family of six. The beautiful beach is a very short walk away and we spent a lot of time there. Our dog enjoyed her first experience of running free on the beach. Thank you Cecil! We hope to return.
