Charming Matunuck Artist Retreat | Private Yard, Screened Porch & Pet-Friendly Beach Getaway

MATUNUCK BEACH RETREAT:
Designed and built in the late 1980s by a pair of filmmakers and film historians, this unique Matunuck retreat became a home for their extensive collection of artwork, books, and cinematic artifacts. With its screened porch, private yard, and abundant greenery, the property offers a peaceful escape where you can leave your worries behind and breathe in the salt air.

The home features a minimalist mid-century aesthetic complemented by shelves of books, artwork, and memorabilia that reflect the creative lives of its former owners. Once home to a Princeton professor and publisher of books on avant-garde film, the property retains an artistic spirit that invites guests to slow down, unplug, and enjoy a different pace of life by the sea. The layout includes three bedrooms and three full bathrooms. There is one bedroom and a full bathroom on the first floor, while upstairs you'll find two ensuite bedrooms. The upstairs queen bedroom also includes a pullout sofa for additional sleeping space.

Located just a short bike ride from Matunuck Beach, the property is pet-friendly and features a fenced yard and outdoor shower. This is a new listing for Summer 2026, offering guests the opportunity to be among the first to experience this thoughtfully curated home, lovingly maintained by the family of its original owners.

For a turnkey vacation experience, the listed price includes checkout cleaning and a professionally prepared linen package for the home's occupancy. Commercially laundered linens are provided, and beds will be freshly made prior to your arrival with crisp sheets and hotel-style duvets featuring freshly laundered covers. Each guest receives one towel set, including a bath towel, hand towel, and facecloth, and the home is stocked with bathmats and kitchen towels. This hotel-style linen service allows you to arrive and immediately begin enjoying your vacation without the hassle of packing or laundering bedding and towels. Beach towels are not included unless otherwise noted. Stays longer than one week may incur an additional linen charge.
