Large families will feel at ease and at home at this two-story house in Mashpee, ideally situated mere steps from the Cape Cod Children's Museum. This is a place for memorable summer vacations, offering all sorts of games and an incredible amount of living space inside and out. This expanded Cape Cod home is enviably situated on a quiet, dead-end street, on a grassy piece of property lined with mature trees. You can walk to the Cape Cod Children's Museum, ride bikes to Mashpee Commons and South Cape Beach State Park, and take easy day trips out to Martha's Vineyard or along the Shining Sea Bikeway. When you do hit the beach, you'll have beach chairs, a Sport-Brella, body boards, dune spoons, other gear for your use. One of the special features of this home is the entertainment that it provides for guests of all ages. The enormous backyard features a kids' ropes course with a swing, a patio with a gas grill, a firepit for evening s'mores, and equipment for lawn games such as wiffle ball, soccer, and lawn darts. For your daily excursions, you'll have two adult-size bikes, one child-size bike, and four inflatable kayaks (two tandem, two individual). The recreation theme continues indoors, where you'll find multiple living areas to spread out and relax. At the heart of the house is an eat-in kitchen with stainless steel appliances; it leads into an expansive dining and living room with a smart TV and a second family room with another smart TV and a coffee bar and beverage station. After an evening spent playing Wii Sports, Mario Kart, Legos, and board games, choose between five comfortable sleeping spaces. There are two bedrooms - including a primary suite with its own bathroom, den, smart TV, and desk workspace - on the ground floor, and two more bedrooms upstairs. One of the upstairs bedrooms leads into a carpeted playroom that doubles as a fifth sleeping space, offering a ring toss and a mini basketball hoop for the kids.
