Overview

Easily paddle to one of the nearby islands or to Wingaersheek Beach for a day in the sand and surf.

Singing Pines is situated on over an acre of waterfront land and has lovely gathering spaces both inside and out. It was built as the waterfront vacation home of Governor Bates, who was the governor of Massachusetts at the turn of the 20th century.

On the huge lawn, you can have a friendly game of football or croquet (in the spirit of the era of the house), or sit in the shade on one of the screened or open porches and watch the river flow by. There are several peaceful spots around the property for guests to enjoy the lively boat activity on the river and take in the breathtaking sunsets.

Ground Floor:

Living Room: The living room has fabulous views of the lawn and river and also includes a flat screen TV. Original French doors from the living room take you to the large porch. AC units on will keep you cool during warm summer days.

Kitchen: The eat-in kitchen is bright, sunny and fully applianced (including the washer and dryer). A secondary porch, accessible from the kitchen, is perfect for al fresco meals. A butler's pantry connects the kitchen to the dining room.
