Create Memories only 10 min walk to Long Sands beach.
This bright, sunny Ranch on quiet Dean Road is perfect for creating family memories. The home has 3 cozy bedrooms, a naturally lit sunroom with large windows, an open kitchen and dining area, and a comfortable living room with space for all to relax and re-energize. The house has only one floor making it accessible for all. Our home sits on 1.25 acres with plenty of room for a corn hole game or throwing around a frisbee. The yard is surrounded by oak trees and flowering plants. Our lovely home is only a 10-minute walk to Long Sands Beach, Stones Throw Restaurant, Long Sands General Store, and the iconic Blinky Cone ice cream shop. It is centrally located between RT 1 and RT 1a (Long Sands road) putting you close to Long Sands Beach and all it has to offer. There are plenty of options for the logistics of your beach day. From the house you can easily walk to Long Sands Beach or you can drive and find easy parking closer, call the York Beach Buggy, and enjoy a golf cart taxi for a cheap ride. There are plenty of food and entertainment options close by that are off the beach as well. Lobster in the Rough, a great outdoor drinking hole, is about .75 miles away and has live music and games. Right across the road from them is Southern Maine Lobster Company which sells lobsters caught off their boat. Short Sands Beach is also about a mile away from the house and has convenient parking options. Short Sands has a playground, lots of shops and restaurants, Yorks Wild Kingdom, and the York Beach Beer Company for those looking for a local brewery. The Bedrooms all have plenty of space with burrows and closets with space for storage. They all have beautiful hardwood floors. The first bedroom has 2 twin beds, a desk, a 42” TV (new 2024), and a mini-split for both heat and AC. The second bedroom has a king bed (new in 2024), 2 dressers, a mini-split, and built-in shelves in the closet. The third bedroom has a king bed (new in 2024) two end tables with LED lighting, a dresser, a mini-split, and built-in shelves for the closet. Pictures of all of the bedrooms as well as all other rooms of the house are provided. The bathroom has a new quartz countertop and a shower-tub combo. Laundry detergent is provided for your convenience. The living room is bright and partially open to the kitchen and dining area. The living room has two couches with one of them being a sofa bed. The family will find games and a large 65” TV (new in 2024) to enjoy after a day at the beach. The TV is a smart TV with cable and over 100 channels to surf. The kitchen has an expanded quartz countertop/island, dishwasher, stove, refrigerator, and many small appliances (new in 2023/2024) for the family to enjoy meals together inside or out. Dishwasher detergent is provided as well as cleaning supplies if needed. The sunroom is like a second living room with comfortable furniture, a 42” TV (new in 2024), and a closable door to the kitchen for privacy to watch a movie or use an air mattress for an additional sleeping area. This will be a room everyone will want to hang out in with so many windows all around. The home has a deck, patio, and a small porch outback for complete privacy. The deck has a table for 6, a new grill, and a gas fire pit. The yard features flower beds, and 1.25 acres of space for games and family fun. There is plenty of parking available as there is room for over six cards in the driveway. The shed houses some beach must-haves such as small and large coolers, some beach games, a beach buggy, and plenty of chairs.

This place is excellent! Top notch appliances, very well decorated, and the flow of the home inside and out is very family friendly. Owners VERY responsive and helpful. Location is ideal, close to all you may want, but private enough for relaxing after a busy day. From beds to kitchen utensils everything is there that is needed and the quality is evident. We had everything we needed and wanted!
We stayed for the weekend to celebrate our daughter’s 11th birthday/ Mother’s Day!It was a beautiful home within a short walk to the beach, and plenty of space for our family of 4 to move around. We would definitely stay again!
This beautifully updated home was all we hoped for; the kitchen was well equipped, the property was immaculate and the location was perfect. We enjoyed Short Sands Beach and the restaurants nearby, especially the Lobster House. The owner is quick to respond to any inquiry and we just enjoyed ourselves so much here. We hope to return again in the future.
It was perfect for what we were looking for and everything we needed. Small family gathering one day with outdoor and indoor space for gathering. Close to beach and close enough to UNH. Did not disappoint.
This beautiful home was perfect for my family of 5! Set in a quiet neighborhood and just minutes from the beach, with shopping and groceries just a short drive away. It really felt like a home away from home. We appreciated the activities for our children to do, both inside and out. The owners were fantastic about staying in touch and really seemed to anticipate our every need. We will be back!
We were attending a wedding in nearby Portsmouth, but wanted something a bit quieter. Boy, did we find the spot! Nice, quiet street, house on a nice size lot, with super easy access to all points. Beaches in York are literally less than a 5 min drive. Next time we stay, we’re hitting the beaches!!
We stayed at this vacation house for 5 nights over Memorial day weekend. We were immediately taken with the house and property, and truly enjoyed our home away from home. The house is bright and welcoming with nearly the whole house having been recently updated. The hosts thought of every detail and provided loads of items needed for a great vacation at the beach. The quiet street location was ideal for our family. We definitely plan to return!
Wonderful time at a great place! Walking distance to the beach, but far enough away for some privacy, which we loved. Chris' house was clean and had the perfect layout for our family of four adults, one toddler, and a dog. We especially loved the back porch and side deck. It was also very well-stocked with essentials, including paper towels, toilet paper, and dish detergent to last us a week. Plenty of room outside to walk our dog. We had an issue on day two and Chris worked hard to get it resolved as quickly as possible. Will definitely return...thanks for a great visit!
Our party consisted of 4 adults and 2 dogs. The property was clean, very comfortable and the host thought of everything we needed before we even knew we needed it! Easy walk to the best part of Long Sands beach. Quiet, lush location in safe neighborhood. Great sunroom and deck with grill. Loved this place, host was a click away if we had questions otherwise we had full privacy. We will be back!!
November 2025. My wife & I, found the house to be in excellent condition. We stayed five nights. It was located in a nice quiet neighborhood that was an easy walk from the ocean. The house itself was one level with nice sized bedrooms, a well stocked kitchen, washer, and dryer, dishwasher, a sunroom and a living room both with flatscreen TVs. We enjoyed our stay and would stay again.
We had a great stay! The home was clean, spacious, and had everything we needed. The owners were communicative and provided great recommendations for the area in the welcome book
Due to some physical limitations of people in my group we needed 2 bedrooms on the main level. This home worked great. It was close to many places we wanted to go. Chris was great with communication. Thank you for a great stay
Looking for a quiet week away, I found 1Dean Rd in York Me. I wanted quiet, away from crowds, but close to town & beaches.1Dean Rd in York fit the bill. I found the property clean, well appointed and very comfortable.
The house was clean, comfortable, and had everything we needed for our two-week stay. The house is within walking distance of two beaches, several restaurants, York's Wild Animal Kingdom, and downtown York. The yard has several areas to hang out in, and there's a deck off the kitchen; all are excellent places to spend time with family and friends. Check-in was easy, and Chris was very responsive. We look forward to staying here again!
