Welcome to Anchor to Windward, a private waterfront retreat in the heart of Osterville. Set on two acres overlooking West Bay, this special property features a private beach, deep-water dock, spectacular west-facing sunsets, and two separate homes with 8 bedrooms and 7.5 bathrooms — offering plenty of space for families and groups of up to 20 to gather, relax, and enjoy Cape Cod.

The property includes a five-bedroom Main House and a separate three-bedroom Boat House directly by the water. The two-house layout is ideal for multigenerational family vacations and larger groups, giving everyone their own space while keeping the entire group together on one private property.

Spend your mornings swimming, kayaking, or paddleboarding from the beach, afternoons relaxing by the water, and evenings gathering for dinner on the waterfront patio before watching the sun set over West Bay. End the night in the seven-person hot tub overlooking the water.

THE PROPERTY

Main House — 5 Bedrooms

The Main House is designed for gathering, with bright, comfortable living spaces and beautiful views of West Bay throughout the home.

The waterfront sunroom is a favorite place to enjoy morning coffee, read a book, or watch the sunset. The fully equipped kitchen offers plenty of space for preparing meals for a group and opens to the family room and billiards area. Multiple indoor and outdoor dining and living spaces make it easy for everyone to spend time together without feeling crowded.

The Main House includes five bedrooms, all with water views, along with beautifully appointed bathrooms, air conditioning, laundry facilities, and an additional refrigerator.

Boat House — 3 Bedrooms

Just steps from the beach, the separate three-bedroom Boat House offers additional privacy and its own living space while keeping guests close to the Main House.

It's an ideal setup for grandparents, another family, older children, or anyone who appreciates having a little extra space during a group vacation. With the water right outside, the Boat House offers the quintessential Cape Cod experience.

WATERFRONT LIVING

The waterfront is what makes Anchor to Windward truly special.

Enjoy your own private beach on West Bay, swim directly from the property, launch a kayak or paddleboard, or spend the afternoon relaxing by the water. A deep-water dock provides direct access to the bay, while the outdoor shower and beach changing areas make coming and going from the water easy.

At the end of the day, gather around the teak outdoor dining table for dinner overlooking the bay, relax in the seven-person hot tub, or simply settle in to watch the sunset — the property's western exposure makes for spectacular evenings over the water.

    Our party consisted of 6 couples in town for a wedding at a nearby club. The property exceeded our expectations with plenty of room, activities and character. This property is in a perfect and private setting with beautiful sunsets and plenty of space to spend outdoors. Our group gravitated to the main house for meals and wandered down to the boat house for a cocktail for the evenings. The guests stayed busy by playing tennis, beach volleyball, billiards, using the hot tub and of course going down the slide! This is a precious home that has been well cared for and is a classic cape experience.

    This house is huge and beautiful. We arrived with 16 members over three generations of our family. The house and property were immaculate. The 16 of us were accommodated comfortably between the house and boathouse. The house is beautifully furnished. There are 2 large eating areas, the formal dining room, and a nice sized breakfast room off a large modern, fully equipped kitchen. A large laundry room also houses an extra refrigerator. Off the comfortable living room is a less formal sunroom, ideal for morning coffee and evening cocktails, overlooking the outdoor terrace and the sailboats in the bay. The whole house is suffused with light and the gentle breeze off the water giving the place a cool comfort on the warmest of days. Upstairs, all bedrooms look out on the water. A casual and inviting boathouse is perfect for sunset cocktails while the kids play on the dock and beach. And most memorable are those sunsets over the bay.
