Peaceful, relaxing, sun-splashed days await at Gateway Escape, a beautiful waterfront home on the serene shores of Wareham's Broad Marsh River. Perfect for a romantic getaway, a couples' retreat, or a quiet weekend with close friends, this recently renovated property offers a scenic and comfortable place to call home.

This quiet community is ideal for getting out on the water, whether by the small beach right in front of the house or the larger association beach just down the road. Included are two kayaks and a stand-up paddleboard for your enjoyment, along with everything else you need for beach days, such as chairs, an umbrella, and even an outdoor shower to wash off the sand when you return. Plus, in this convenient Wareham location, you won’t have to deal with Cape Cod traffic or bridge crossings.

Thanks to thoughtful renovations from top to bottom, the house is open, spacious, and full of natural light. A warm and inviting seaside charm can be felt throughout, whether you're playing board games or reading beneath lofty ceilings in the living room.

Spend summer days barbecuing on the gas grill, fixing your favorite side dishes in the well-equipped kitchen, and catching spectacular sunsets on the large deck out back. Leave the day's swimsuits and towels in the washer/dryer, gather for an evening movie, and retire to three bedrooms—two downstairs and one in the loft upstairs. Complimentary WiFi and central AC are provided for your comfort as well.

Homebase for Cape Cod/Area Exploring
The set up of the home was perfect for our family. I was traveling with my teenage daughter and my father for a special "dream" trip to the Cape for my daughter. We all had our own space each night after we spent the day out exploring the area. We also enjoyed the backyard decks and the small beach area. The location was easy to find and we could easily make it to our "must see" spots (including Concord, P-town, Woods Hole, etc). We also were able to make quick stops to Aldi, Walmart for any essentials we needed for our stay, but also enjoyed the charm of Wareham downtown and other local businesses.

GATEWAY ESCAPE
Beautiful home; great water views and magnificent sunsets!!!! We had a very relaxing week....grilling on the deck, watching the boaters and kayakers, reading and walking our Maltipoo Max around the cute neighborhood. The use of the kayaks was an added bonus!! So glad we found the adorable gem and look forward to future stays.
