About this property

Wingaersheek, Private & Public Beach, Beautiful Luxury Home, Ext'd Family

This is the vacation house you have been looking for! It’s perfectly located only a few steps from the private & secluded section of Coffins Beach. As well as a short walk to the world famous Wingearsheek Beach. The younger crowd will love the excitement of the public part of Wingaersheek beach, while the private access to Coffins Beach is unexcelled for that quiet relaxing time. Why have to make a choice when you can have them both? All within a 2-3 min minutes walk, less than 2/10th of a mile to the private neighborhood section of the beach called Coffins beach. Or 1/2 of a mile to the white sands of the public side of Wingaersheek Beach. This immaculate and graciously appointed home is the perfect destination for discerning beach lovers who want only the best in accommodation, sea & surf, at the same time having the secluded privacy you have been dreaming of.

Housing accommodations are a perfect set-up for the extended family or share with the best friends. This location contains 3000 sq/ft. of housing for your enjoyment. This is one of the most private and secluded houses available in the area, as you will be quietly resting on 1.38 acres. Once you enter the private community by way of the guarded gate house and continue until Sleepy Hollow Pond you will turn on to your own private way and head up the driveway to the house, and you will immediately feel like you are on vacation and ready to enjoy your stay. All the while as it seems you are the only one around. You will be residing on your own 1.38 acres of private land. There are numerous outdoor custom built landscapes and a front patio to enjoy the beautiful weather and enjoy the wonderful privacy. As you walk-in the first floor entrance into the spacious custom tiled foyer/entrance, you will immediately feel the beach house charm! The first floor also contains an expansive open concept fully appointed eat-in gourmet kitchen featuring double built-in Jenn-Air ovens. The granite counters, custom cabinets, complete with Built-in counter blenders, and coffee grinder, pantry and stainless appliances completes this home so that it is the perfect place to be the ultimate beach home away from home. Produce your family’s favorite recipes or try some of the great local dining options, its all up to you. Beyond the 8 chair open concept, eat in kitchen, you can relax as you proceed thru to the spacious living room which contains the center-piece of the room, a beautiful custom stone built fireplace. Enjoy watching the 55” HDTV with the full surround system and music surround system (iPod friendly), or choose to relax in quietness, as the choice is yours. To your right you have two oversized custom French doors to the enormous and fully screened-in rear deck which has some spectacular water views over looking Sleepy Hollow Pond, which is a brackish pond teaming wide life. This is the prefect spot where you can relax on the outside deck furniture and sunbath privately instead of the beach if you prefer. As you continue around the first floor, there is the first of the three very nice bathrooms. For the more formal dining experience, you can always entertain in the Formal Dining room, if you prefer. You will also find the separate laundry area off the kitchen entrance/foyer. As you climb the stairs to the Lower Level. You will enter into the entertainment area which contains a large TV, and a spacious and comfy living room sets, and don’t forget you can always challenged each other at the 3-in-1 game table, with your choice of pool, ping pong and air hockey. Perhaps you prefer to play Xbox with your friends and family, and of course bring some family favorites, or sit at the beautiful Oak table and play table games or have a card tournament. It’s a great space while you’re not enjoying the beach. Additionally the sectionals do contain sleeping arrangements which can be used once the fun has ended! Once you are back on the main level and you climb the stairs to the second floor you will find the king sized master bedroom with cathedral ceilings It contains your own custom full-sized bathroom and another queen-size sofa set, and a large TV. The King size bed actually looks small in this space! There also is a huge second king size bed room, and an additional bedroom with Two Bunk beds set ups, one with pull-out trundle to round out the sleeping arrangements. The third full size custom bathroom is also located between the two bedrooms. In addition to the three bedrooms on the second floor, we also have a very large beautiful bedroom with a queen size bed in the loft over the garage, which gives you the added ability to have an another extra bedroom to fully round out this wonderful location. The house is air conditioned, if you prefer, or you can enjoy the sea-breeze air and open the numerous oversized Anderson windows. For those of you who need to always be connected, the house has WiFi, of course, but brings your cell phone as there is no landline at the house. Plenty of parking in the U- shaped driveway and lovely landscaping outside! Additionally, Gloucester is quickly becoming artwork-culturally friendly area. Take a ride to the local artwork shops found around Rocky Neck. Find a new treasure for your home to remember your trip or come every year if you prefer.

Weekend trip
This house was perfect for exactly what I needed. I had 14 girls in total stay with me for the weekend, mostly family but a few friends. We all came here to explore Salem and have a quiet weekend. Pete was awesome! Anytime I had a question or concern he did message back within the hour. He was very accommodating and very helpful. The house is huge and never felt like you were stopping on each other. I loved how the house was tucked away and we could sit outside and not see anyone. The only thing I felt challenging was all trash needed to be placed in purple garbage bags and you could only get them at one place in town. I had tried to go there twice and both times they were closed and I got lucky the third try to get them. This isn’t on the owner of this listings fault but I do wish I would’ve tried to grab these on my way to the house the very first night so I didn’t have to worry about having the proper bags for trash removal. Overall it was the perfect stay and made my first Salem experience amazing. Would highly recommend this house, specially for a larger family!

Wedding weekend
We rented the house for “home base” for our sons Gloucester wedding. The house was plenty big for our needs. The back porch was our favorite space. The listing states there are four bathrooms. There are really 2 1/2 bathrooms and an outdoor shower. With a large group getting ready around the same time, this could be problematic. The listing also states 6 bedrooms when there are actually 3 bedrooms and an additional large nice space over the garage with one double bed and a single bed. Make sure to keep the back porch doors locked as we had a critter come in overnight that got into a trash bag on the porch. The kitchen was very well stocked and we were very pleased with the additional refrigerator in the garage.

As posted
The house was just as it was posted. They have everything you need right there, the kitchen had everything you would need. I love that the linens were provided, much easier for packing when folks are coming from all directions.

A step back in time
The house was clean, private and you are provided with everything you need. We came in after the first Nor'easter came through the area, Pete was in contact with us from the day before check in til after we checked in providing information. This was due to the storm because of the damage in the area and power outage. We had power, we found this restaurant George's in Gloucester 10 minutes away. Had dinner then went back to the house and settled in for a relaxing cozy night. Beds were comfortable, there are extra pillows and blankets which is very nice to have. Plenty of indoor activities for rainy days. Visit Russell's orchard and try the apple cider donuts, you won't regret it. I must add cell service is not great in the entire area. The house does have wifi but phone calls will drop. Honestly it was nice to set the phones aside and enjoy the time with family and see the beautiful sites. Don't expect to find chain restaurants or grocery store. These are all locally independent restaurants and grocery. Way better food and some of the nicest people! We did not find a bad restaurant during our exploration. 5 stars 🌟 is what I give this house, you will not be disappointed.
