Exclusive Waterfront Poppy Island Ranch with Dock and Kayaks to Barrier Beach!

Fully renovated, and perfect for multi-generations or multi-couples, this luxury home awaits you! We invite you to experience the comfort and sophisticated touches of our Nantucket style home designed and remodeled by Thomas J. O'Neill, acclaimed Cape Home Designer as highlighted in Cape Cod and Islands Home, Southern New England Home and Design New England magazines.

Walk into this bright and airy executive ranch with expansive 45 x 20 foot open concept Living, Dining and Kitchen Areas, complimented by 25 foot vaulted ceilings, hardwood floors and custom carpentry built-ins, trim and cabinetry. Enjoy the water view as you walk from the living room to deck with large gas grill, patio dining for 10.

Extras abound in this custom home starting with boston interior / restoration hardware' furnishings and fixtures, top-line marble, granite, hardwoods and travertine surfaces and gallery style kitchen appliances and bath fixtures.

2 Primary bedrooms (1 King and 1 Queen) each with en-suites and walk in closets (one with balcony overlooking the water) on first floor flank each end of the home, afford total privacy and provide spa-like retreats (including hotel quality bath-robes for each guest). A third (Queen) guest bedroom is also on the main floor with water views and a dedicated hallway bath. This one floor space is the perfect option for those with extended family; and/or those with mobility issues. The Fourth bedroom is on the lower-level with 2 twins adjoining separate family room, another full bath and direct access to garden, patio & dock through French Patio Doors. This is the perfect space to tuck your tweens and teens for gaming (Wii included) and connecting away from the adults.

(When viewing photos, please use full screen mode as many are in panoramic view to give you full scope of rooms.)

Our Deep-water dock will accommodate your (own or rented) Motor or Sailboat up to 25 feet comfortably (we do require evidence of experience as captain and coast guard boating safety course). 4 Kayak's and 2 stand up paddle boards are also on site for your water-craft enjoyment and are easily launched from our Dock with ladder. We provide a minimum of 4 adult bicycles, 8 beach chairs, 1 beach umbrella, 1 beach buggy, coolers and other miscellaneous beach gear. (Flotation vests as well as bicycle helmits are also provided for your safety). We also offer lawn games (corn-hole / giant jenga) and a full assortment of puzzles and family games.

You have two beach options available to you...The semi-public popponesset spit, a barrier beach, is accessible by Kayak (a 10 minute ride), or by Bike or Foot (approx 1.5 land miles or .5 nautical miles away). South Cape beach is a public state beach with parking (for a fee) approx. 2.7 miles away.

What else do you need? Almost nothing...Beach, Bath and Bed linens are included as well as two laundry areas (1 up, 1 down) and additional full-size fridge on the lower level. Paper goods (paper towels, toilet paper), laundry and cleaning detergents and soaps are also provided in your rental fee.

Popponesset Island is the most exclusive neighborhood in New Seabury - a village of Mashpee. Only 76 homes are fortunate enough to claim this gem of an island as our safe harbor. Beautiful gardens and harbor vistas abound and quickly fill you with a sense of calm and serenity. For the boater, we sit in a protected cul-de-sac on the Popponesset Creek system opening to the Nantucket Sound- less than 6 miles to Martha's Vineyard on your craft. By Kayak you can quickly access the Popponesset Spit barrier beach and Mass Audubon wildlife refuge popular for beach goers, birders, clammers and fisherman alike.

For those not familiar with New Seabury and Mashpee, our location is a quick 25 minutes past the Bourne bridge (quicker to get to enjoy your vacation vs. the outer and lower cape towns) and is heralded as one of the fastest growing towns in Massachusetts. We have many upscale shopping and dining options, and activities for young and old. Many visitors fall in love with the local Popponesset Marketplace, a quaint assembly of shops 's and eateries including the renowned Raw Bar and its famous lobster roll. Live entertainment can be found here Thurs-Saturday eves, a real treat for youngsters, along with it's mini golf course. Geographically, we are 7 miles from historic Falmouth and 10 miles from Kennedy famous Hyannis on the route 28 corridor.

If you have any questions, don't hesitate to reach out. This is truly a unique opportunity to walk into a pristine & elegant waterfront property with all the latest conveniences and top of the line detailing.

Perfect family getaway!

Our extended family had a delightful stay at the Goldfish House and treasured its beautiful location right on the waterfront. We enjoyed going on morning excursions in the kayaks out to the Spit for a swim and walk on the tranquil beach. The house was well-equipped with all we needed, and Anne was an attentive host. We appreciated too that linens and laundry services are offered as a convenience. Highly recommend this special property!

Work Conference

We were in town for a quick work conference. The house was beautiful and spotless. Anne checked in before we arrived and after to make sure everything was up to par. The best part were the kayaks my business partners and I got to use after the conference. Definitely will be booking again.

Great Find

I am challenged in writing a review for this property, because I am concerned it will make it harder for me to book in the future. We stayed here with 4 adults and 4 children (ages 6 to 12). It was perfect for us in every way. The house is very nicely renovated and furnished. It is well stock with essentials and was very clean. The bedrooms and bathrooms were all very nice to luxurious. Communications with the owner were easy and she was very responsive. We had a boat with us, so the location with the dock was perfect. Surrounded by beautiful homes, quiet (although there is a house being built across the street), and easy to get around. The neighborhood is also very nice for walking and bike riding. We always went to beach by boat or kayak, but appears to be a bit long if walking (so if that is a priority it may not be the best match for you). If I had any criticism, I think the list of tenant checkout cleaning was a bit excessive (e.g. wash and fold lines, wipe down counters, fridge, etc.), but they were fine with leaving the final load of laundry in the dryer. Overall we could not have been happier, and we will absolutely look to stay here again.

What a lovely and beautiful place. Our family, ages 18-83 all comfortably fit in this beautiful home. The gathering space in the main area was large enough for the whole group to gather, play games, watch movies, enjoy meals, spend time together. The dock with kayaks, SUPs to use was my favorite. A short paddle to the beach, or you can enjoy a longer route. The water is calm and perfect for first timers on kayaks and stand up paddleboards. We loved all the games, indoor and outdoor, and also the huge selection of movies. There is one bedroom and bath that is very comfortable for folks with limited mobility. The kitchen is well stocked, we cooked most evenings. The bedrooms and bathrooms were all very nice, clean and comfortable. We loved our time here.

The Goldfish house was an amazing place to stay for a summer getaway at Cape Cod. The location is private and house was immaculate. We really enjoyed riding bikes around the island and taking the kayaks out from the dock and out to Spit beach. Our boys were able to throw out a crab trap from the dock and caught a few crabs.Anne is a great host and was very responsive throughout the trip. We would definitely stay here again.

The perfect spot on the Cape!

What a wonderful home and location to host our family in this 4th of July weekend! We so appreciated and loved having use of multiple kayaks and paddle boards to enjoy. Daily trips down to the spit and paddling around Popponesset Island were favorite events! Having use of multiple bikes, to ride up to the Poppy marketplace was also highlight! We highly recommend this spot for any family’s holiday!

We loved our stay at Anne's gorgeous house. The house is very comfortable and clean, and the layout worked out great for our multi-generational vacation. The location of the house is also incredible. We loved being on the water and using the kayaks and SUPs. Anne was a fantastic host and very communicative. We had the best time and hope to return for many years.

Excellent family vacation on Cape Cod

This is a perfect family vacation house! The house is a great layout for everyone to have both their own space and also spend time together. The built-in activities (walking, swimming, biking, kayaking and paddle board) make for lots of summer fun! And of course you can’t beat the location. We felt comfortable and our kids were thrilled to wander/bike around New Seabury on their own. A slice of Norman Rockwell’s Americana.

Wonderful time!

Close to everything yet peaceful area. Approx 20 min to ferry for Martha’s Vineyard. Minutes from wonderful seafood ( The Raw Bar) Few minutes from beach. Our host provided ideas for dining, information on local beaches and was most helpful! A must stay if you want a quiet, secluded and enjoyable experience.. hopefully a do over again!
