Sprawling home on large, 18-acre estate in Brewster, near the bay beaches

Nestled on Brewster’s Old King’s Highway, in the heart of Brewster, is this expansive, private, 17.5-acre estate with a massive landscaped back yard, incredible walking access to pristine Bay beaches and tidal flats at Ellis Landing, direct access to the Cape Cod Rail Trail, and 800’ private shore front on secluded Blueberry Pond, one of Brewster's best kept secrets.

The property is immediately adjacent to the Ocean Edge Resort Spa, on Main Street. It is capped by a lovingly restored, art-adorned, book-filled, 5 bedroom, 2 bath family home which sleeps 10 comfortably. Beach gear available for use includes two kayaks, three bicycles, two windsurfers, a light metal fishing boat, and a smaller hand-cart-mounted skiff for use on the Pond, with rods, reels and lightweight fishing tackle.

A gorgeous, updated and fully-equipped marble eat-in kitchen and great room is open and inviting, as is the large, furnished deck and additional stone terrace and breezeway facing the massive, private back yard. Pet-friendly, with expansive grounds and even an old-fashioned wood tree swing, this is a much-loved, multi-generational Brewster family property and an awesome opportunity for an extended family or multi-family stay.

We look forward to hosting your family or group in historic Brewster!

Fantastic property that served our family very well!
Great location! Easy access to the rail trail for biking, quick ride to the beach right down the street. Everything was conveniently located in close proximity to the house. Home is nice and spacious for a larger group. The back deck is great for lounging outside. Beautiful, newer kitchen was well used. Homeowner is a thorough communicator. Thank you, Jim, we had a wonderful stay!

The house was very comfortable for 8 people. 3 generations and we found lots to do. Jim was very helpful and we enjoyed his lengthy instructions about the house, the suggestions of activities and restaurants. Being on the rail trail was an added bonus.

A great winter get away
We had our family of 10 with age ranges from 3 - 80. The property was located well near grocery shops, restaurants, and fire wood. The owner was highly responsive and resolved any questions raised quickly. The two best things about the property for us were - The Kitchen and the bedrooms. Plenty of beds for everyone to sleep comfortably. Kitchen has all the needed utensils, equipment, silverware. We had a great time.

Beautiful house and awesome property. Close to everything. Would have liked to stay longer and wish I had brought binoculars for viewing the birds in the pond. There were several varieties of ducks but I would have liked to be able to identify them better.

Sunsets & Serenity
This was the perfect spot for our family vacation . My parents, siblings, and our spouses & children decided on this place. We loved the location, we took the backyard path to the bike trail everyday. The beach was a short walk away. We brought our car down to drop off our chairs etc. then walked or biked down. Ellis Landing Beach was the perfect spot to watch the sunset. We ate dinner in the back deck almost every night and enjoyed the privacy of the sprawling backyard. The house was clean and had plenty of accommodations for all of us to have our space. There were 7 adults, 2 teens, and a 6 year old. We all had a wonderful week! Jim was on hand to answer the few questions I had, and responded right away.

Beautiful property, great location.
This house had plenty of room for the entire family, and enough yard and deck space to host extended family in the afternoon and evenings. Our host brought fresh hanging flowers and replaced a broken firepit one day as well. He truly cared about us having the best experience and the property looking great. Like all of Cape Cod, there were busy times of day on the road out front, but it was never noisy, and it wasn't impossible to get in and out of the driveway. We have stayed in the Yarmouth area in years past and we found that Brewster is much more "central" to the things we like to do. We were much closer to the National Seashore, the Wellfleet Audubon Sanctuary, downtown Chatham and even the couple locations in Yarmouth we like to visit were easy to get back to. Great bookstore, coffee, bakery, beach and restaurants all within walking distance and the Cape Cod Rail trail is accessible from a walking path in the back yard OR just a short ride/walk down the street. We will definitely be considering this property again when we return to the Cape.

We've made a tradition of 3 generations spending a week together at the beach each summer. We have stayed in many homes and this was the best. The owner was very responsive with our questions and needs, the location is wonderful and the kids had more than enough room to run around. The grandma and grandpa, as well as our adult children were very happy. The cousins always love spending time together. Highly recommend.

Convenient, Spacious and Comfortable!
Our family enjoyed everything about this house! Jim, the owner was extremely helpful and available. We had rented two homes for our family reunion. The second home was in walking/biking distance and waterfront, with a great beach! Our grandchildren flew kits, rode bikes, played soccer, hide and seek and swam and snorkeled every day! Walking to JT's food and ice cream, bakeries, the bookstore and the convenient store kept us on foot and leaving the cars parked! The bike trails are right behind this house! Highly recommended for riding and walking!

Unbelievable Experience in Brewster
We stumbled across this property while looking for a place to stay in Brewster for a wedding and week-long vacation. We absolutely loved it. The property itself was huge, and the house felt comfortably lived in. The convenience factor was tremendous (less than a minute drive to Ocean Edge Resort, gas/groceries/liquor directly across the street, great restaurants, beach and other activities all within walking distance). The owner was super attentive and responsive when contacted. Highly recommended for a family trip.

Great spot for family vacation.
The house was spacious and accommodated our extended family well. There was a cabinet of spices for our use. The write up stated “pet friendly” but Mr McGinnis changed the policy but not the write up. The upstairs shower didn’t drain very well and was fixed, but still continued to pool ankle deep water. . There was no direct hook up with the rail trail which was disappointing. However we were completely comfortable there and I would rent this property again.

The house is lovely and well appointed. After a few glitches in the beginning (owner resolved the issues) very disappointed that the hiking trail was not cleared. We were so excited about taking daily hikes to Blueberry Pond and could not do so. Great location and a great house for family gathering!
