Relaxing 2 bedroom/3 bath + an extra bed in room off of living room - sleeps 6. The house sits on a lakefront property with a large backyard, grill, 2 new patios, and a private dock with canoe, kayak, lake floaties, life jackets, fishing poles, hammock, and kids climbing structure.

We are including pictures of the downstairs as this has remained the same. Some furniture will be updated but the long dining table, chairs, work desk and couch remain the same. The second floor of the house was fully renovated in 2024/25. We are still completing the master bath. We will be posting updated pictures of the upstairs shortly but if you would like more details, please message me.

This place truly is a little slice of heaven. As soon as you walk into the living room you are met by a breathtaking view of the lake and behind you sits an incredible fireplace. The fireplace works; we ask that only duraflame logs are used. The kitchen is fully equipped with plates and dishes for up to 6 people. Work from home desk in the sunroom overlooking the lake with a sit down / standup desk option. There is one bed on the the first floor in its own room off of the living room. This room does not have doors so it is not fully private but it is a step up from a pullout couch as you do not need to convert the living room into a bedroom. This downstairs room has a full size bed. There is a full bathroom on the first floor with toilet and shower.

Upstairs on the second floor are two new bedrooms, both with king size beds. The master bedroom has three large windows that overlook the lake. There are also two new bathrooms, one with a shower over a soaker tub and the other with a beautiful stand alone soaker tub and a large separate shower.

The house has driveway parking for up to 3 cars. Lots of walking trails that can be reached from the house. Downtown Essex is only a short bike ride or 5 minute car ride away.

For anyone with children, we offer a pack n play upon request. We also have a high chair, safety gate, a set of toddler dishes, an indoor play tent, balance bike, and lots of toys. We have an extra child size blow up mattress upon request.

For anyone looking to work from the house we have an Uplift work from home desk located in the sunroom overlooking the lake.

We have a yoga mat, light weights, and exercise bands for anyone that enjoys a workout at home. Yoga overlooking the lake is truly wonderful!

The lake is a wonderful place to visit any time of year. Lots of charming towns to visit nearby. Swimming and boating in the summer, ice skating and ice fishing in the winter. Boston is a 45 minute drive or an hour by train. The train station is 15 minutes from the house in Manchester-by-the-sea. There are several beaches close by, including the famous singing beach in Manchester. The house is a 5 minute drive from the local restaurants and brewery in Essex, including The James which is family run and looks forward to hosting our guests! Several grocery stores 15-20 minutes away.

    The home was in excellent condition and perfectly equipped for to host our extended family for the weekend. With lots of age appropriate toys, great outdoor space and well-laid out family and kitchen space, it made for a very easy and seamless visit. The views from the back of the house over the lake were gorgeous as well.

    Everything was wonderful and the home is exactly as pictured, maybe even bigger than the pictures seem. I really enjoyed the hosts welcome packet, very informative and the food suggestions were delicious!! I do think the “bedroom” downstairs needs some way to be closed off, you couldn’t go into kitchen without waking up whoever was sleeping in there. BUT we were aware the space was not enclosed at time of booking and we really enjoyed the property!

    Wonderful house and wonderful host! The house is just adorable and was more than enough room for the 5 of us. Clean, easy to check in and had everything we needed. It was a perfect choice, only about 20 minutes from Salem and the ocean.

    We had a wonderful time at Anna's lakefront home. It is a beautiful home where we cooked in their fully stocked kitchen, barbecued, played board games, read books overlooking a breathtaking lake and fished, kayaked, and canoed. It was a wonderful getaway with so many memories, both joyful and peaceful. Thank you Anna!

    Well maintained property on a beautiful lot. Owners made fishing and boating equipment available and all of it was in great shape. I haven’t been on a paddle-board for a while so that was interesting.Close to Salem, the harbor towns, and some awesome beaches.

    We had an enjoyable stay in Essex. The lake is lovely and we took advantage of getting out on and in the water. The house, which is updated, offers multiple spots to sit indoors or out to enjoy the view. Our group was all adults, but this house and property was well set up for families with young children. Downsides included WiFi issues to start, bedding issues, and an initial concern about an algae bloom in the lake which resolved itself after a day or two but would have been a major limitation given we chose the rental based on the water access.

    Too bad the weather wasn't great, because this house is directly on Chebacco Lake. Our grandchildren did enjoy fishing and kayaking, but it would have been fun to spend hours doing everything.The house was immaculate and the owners so communicative. It was easy to locate the house and convenient for us since our son lives nearby.We can't wait to stay there again !!!!
