Heritage Hideaway

Historic Orleans home with a separate guest cottage, multiple gathering spaces, and a convenient location near beaches, restaurants, shops, and all that Orleans has to offer.
Space
Step back into Cape Cod history at the “1700 House,” one of the oldest homes in Orleans, while enjoying a relaxing getaway in one of the Cape’s most sought-after towns. Dating to 1765, this remarkable property is filled with authentic 18th-century character, from hand-hewn exposed beams – some reclaimed from shipwrecks – to wide-plank pine floors, antique woodwork, and original architectural details that reflect the home’s centuries-old past.

Set among mature trees in a peaceful Orleans setting, the property includes the historic main house and a separate guest cottage, giving families and groups plenty of space to spread out during their Cape Cod vacation.

Inside the main house, warm wood tones create an inviting atmosphere throughout the living and dining spaces. Gather around the dining table for family meals, relax in the comfortable living room after a day exploring the Cape, or spread out among the home’s multiple gathering spaces for games, reading, or quiet time. The bright, modern kitchen provides everything needed for vacation meals while complementing the historic charm of the home.

Just outside the main house, the separate guest cottage offers added privacy and flexibility, ideal for extended family, grandparents, or guests who appreciate having their own space. The cottage includes a bedroom with one full bed and one twin bed, along with a private bathroom with a shower.

The grounds are shaded by mature trees and surrounded by classic Cape Cod scenery, creating a peaceful setting for slow mornings and relaxing evenings. This Orleans vacation rental puts you close to beautiful beaches, saltwater landscapes, local restaurants, shops, galleries, and nearby conservation areas.

Experience the character of a historic Cape Cod home while making a little history of your own at the 1700 House.
