One more floor up is a finished attic with a Full bed and twin bed and in 2021 has a full bath, giving the home full baths.

Great vacation home
This home was very spacious, well maintained and in a great location. It had plenty of room for our large family group of 9 adults and 4 children. It was especially nice to have the spacious first floor master wing, the large screened in front porch with a porch swing, spacious yard and ample seating areas in the living room, dining room and kitchen.

Large home perfect for kids
We stayed over a long weekend in September with my kids, parents and siblings and had a fantastic time. The kids loved the bunk room and toys, and had a blast with the floats at the beach. Jenn was very communicative and made sure we had a pack n play and booster seat for my 1 year old, which was so thoughtful. The house is right next to the park which was great for playground visits. Overall this is a great home for large families.

Great stay
This house was great! Very close walk to the beach. It was perfect for our group which had multiple families with young children and babies. Plenty of room to spread out and the house was stocked with all the essentials.

About the host

Host profile image
After acquiring our first house in Cape Charles, we pursued this beautiful dutch colonial right across the street that we have always loved. We are a family of 6 with 4 now teenagers (we purchased this home when they were all under 4!) We come to Cape Charles as much as we can, as our primary home is in Maryland, and our other summer home is 20 minutes North in Eastville on the water... We hope to make this town our next move in the next 2 years

Why they chose this property

We started coming to Cape Charles from Connecticut in 2008 and knew we wanted to make this our hometown some day. This spacious property offers 6 bedrooms. It easily allows for 8-11 adults along with 4-6 kids to enjoy a vacation without climbing over each other. The house has so many areas to relax in including a gaming room From the front porch, side porch, gardens in the yard, and the proximity to everything is great. Monroe Street is the quietest street in town, that has a tree lined peninsula. The park also breaks up the street so this end of Monroe has very few cars that travel through it.

What makes this property unique

4 story single dwelling home. Guest House Cottage on fenced in property available for storage.
