Location: Vineyard Haven, Martha's Vineyard, Massachusetts, USA
Accommodations: House, 4 Bedrooms, 2 Baths (Sleeps 8-9)
Enjoy our classic 1938 Vineyard beach house, newly redecorated, simply but with quality. Located right off Main Street toward West Chop. Our cozy, cedar-shingled and hydrangea-bordered home comfortably sleeps 8 and is a perfect spot to experience all that the Vineyard has to offer.
The house was just painted in shades of green, blue, and yellow, with white trim and ceilings. Most rooms, including the original curved staircase, feature hardwood floors. The furnishings are a tasteful mix of antiques, hand-crafted cherry beds, wicker, and new pieces from L.L. Bean, Crate & Barrel, Pottery Barn, etc.
We are a family of cooks -- and eaters! You should find all you will need to happily prepare and enjoy the culinary bounty of the Vineyard. Though the house definitely harkens back to an earlier decade, you'll find modern comforts including high-speed internet, a wireless network, a flat-screen TV with cable and DVD-player, a Bose radio/CD player, iPhone/iPod docking stations, and good reading lamps galore.
The floor plan is traditional and comfortable. The first floor living room has two seating areas, one in front of the fireplace and one near the curved staircase to the second floor. The separate dining room allows seating for six in the round (plus room to move another round table that can seat four more). The kitchen is original but roomy and well-equipped, and includes dishwasher, washer/dryer, and microwave. The sunny pantry accommodates a desk and storage. Also located on the first floor is one bedroom with a full bed, an adjacent full bath, and an adjacent small TV room. The second floor has three more bedrooms (two with queen beds and one with two twin beds), and a roomy full bath. Like the house as a whole, all the bedrooms have a crisp, cottage-style feeling.
The lot is over 9.000 square feet with a large and sunny backyard and small deck, new propane grill, outdoor shower and changing room. Views all around are of other cedar-shingled homes, also of 1930s vintage. The front porch, with its hydrangea border, is especially pleasant-- sprawling and filled with wicker chairs for reading, schmoozing, eating, and just generally unwinding.
Our location is ideal -- close enough to town to easily walk to the ferry, library, two saltwater harbor beaches, the yacht club, churches, and the village of Vineyard Haven. The house is also an easy -- and lovely -- walk or bike ride to West Chop, including the lighthouse; Mink Meadows Golf Course, which is open to the public; and Herring Creek Beach, which fronts on both the North Shore and Tashmoo Pond.
Come enjoy OUR Vineyard haven!
