Perfect 3 Acre Compound Ingroundheated Pool, Hot Tub & Kayaks
Year Purchased: 1999
Why the Owner Chose Edgartown
We searched for several years for the perfect spot for our compound. We actually wanted two parcels of land, one for us and one for my sister and her family. When we found the 6 acre meadow we knew right away it was what he had been looking for. We built our compound to serve our family and with the extra 3 acre parcel my sister was able to join our dream doing the same. We fell in love with this location because it is surrounded by hundreds of acres of protected land, a little off the beaten bath.....away from summer traffic yet 4 miles into Oak Bluffs, Vineyard Haven, Edgartown Village or West Tisbury Village, just a short distance to one of the best beaches on the Island...LONG POINT and the bike path runs right past the end of our road.
The Unique Benefits at this House
Our favorite part of our location is that it feels like the Vineyard we grew up with almost a half a century ago. Our property boasts a huge open sky with ocean breezes and the constant sound of the sea when it gets angry. We are not in a subdivision so our home has privacy and a personality all of it's own. You can walk off the property and continue for miles along ancient trails and across acres of open fields that will stay forever wild and are protected by conservation. It is truly a very special place. It is in an area called the Oyster Watcha Midlands. Island History tells that it is here that the Indian Tribes from the Cape and the Vineyard would gather for their summer camp meetings. Between the open fields and ponds scattered along the south side of the Island hunting was always more than good and it was a beautiful place to gather.
Owner's Map of Edgartown
After being in Real Estate on the Island for over 25 years and managing hundreds of rentals we really wanted to do our home "the right way"! Having happy vacationers is our goal and having people fall in love with the Island is our joy! For Generations the Vineyard has held a special place in our hearts. The Island is part of who we are. Given the opportunity in the mid 1980's to move here full time and raise our children here we jumped at the chance. Having raised and educated our children here, they have now all gone off to their adult lives scattered across the country now raising families of their own. The one constant for all of us is that we continue to gather on the Island of Martha's Vineyard. We built this compound to serve us if we are just two or if we are twenty strong. When we are not using the houses we rent them. Most of our guests have been coming to the Island for years and stay with us each summer. Our goal is to make our home feel likes yours while you are here.

BEST compound on MV!!! Where to begin...everything was perfect during our mini-family reunion on the lovely island of Martha's Vineyard. We usually vacation on Nantucket however we were getting tired of the loung haul and decided to give MV a try. My sister's and I wanted to find a home that would accomodate the 3 of us and all of our kids, one that was centrally located (all attractions were a quick 15 minute drive), had a saline pool and much privacy - Karen and Paul's fit the bill and went way beyond our highest expectations. The home was beautifully decorated - we joked that we were living within the pages of a Pottery Barn magazine! Both houses were appointed with luxury linens, both had fully stocked gourmet kitchens, two hot tubs!, there were kayaks, board & yard games, pool toys...they have thought of EVERYTHING. Dean and I are excited to make this our new family vacation spot. Karen, Paul and Bequia...thank you so much for an amazing time at your home! We just booked our return for 2012!
Owner response:Thank you for your kind review. We loved having you and your family and want you to know that you are always welcome back anytime. Family time is a precious thing and to see you all enjoy the Island and the property is the very reason we built the compound.... a place for families to gather and celebrate each other! So happy to know that you will be back in 2012

Everything about our stay was absolutely fantastic. We've been coming to MV for years and this was by far the best home we've stayed in. The property was stunning, the home was pristine, comfortable, tasteful and very functional. We took full advantage of the well equipped kitchen, pool, hot-tub, kayaks, outdoor BBQ, etc... Paul and Karen were very accomodating and helpful, sincerely interested in our enjoyment. I highly recommend this property for a great MV experience.
Owner response:Thanks Terry, So glad you and your family had a good week. Keep us in mind for even quick get a way weekends over the winter. The Island is pretty special in the off season. Best to all Karen and Paul

The guest house is perfect! My husband and I came for a long weekend with our respective parents, and while it was a little cozy for 6 adults, it was really comfortable. The house is really well furnished and equipped, it seems as though Karen and Paul have thought of everything. They chose to furnish the house in a way that one might furnish their own house, not a rental. The kitchen is terrific- we love to cook and we had everything we might have needed. The house was clean and clearly well maintained. We loved everything about it- especially the hot tub!
Owner response:It is our hope that we have created the perfect spot and well equipped home for your vacation. Thanks for you kind words. We enjoyed having you. Please keep us in mind for another time and don't forget the main house is larger and may work better for three couples.

Hate to have to leave this little piece of heaven. Our vacation is always something we look forward too but now that we have found Oyster Watcha Meadow I have to say it was the best vacation we have ever had. You have thought of everything. We love to cook and it is obvious that you do too! The kitchen is fantastic and so well equipped. The pool and gardens were amazing. Loved the location and how beautiful the whole meadow is. Great Stay...thanks

If anyone wants a really nice rental this house is great. Also liked the location. Close to everything but in an area that is really beautiful and private. Never stayed in such a nice house! My wife loved it. My kids loved the pool and I liked the Island Golf Courses. Really great vacation... Thanks Paul...you did a great job on this property.

We booked this home for a family reunion to celebrate Mothers 90th birthday. We looked for months to find the perfect spot where 4 generations could live in comfort and everyone have space. Being that this was a really special occasion we were very particular. Finding 34 Jennie Oyster Watcha Compound was pure genius! The beautiful gardens and lawn areas were enjoyed by all, The amazingly well equipped kitchens made cooking fun! The houses were immaculate and beautifully furnished with thought put into every little detail. My father loved the huge selection of books to choose from, My mother loved your amazing gardens....something we don't have in New York City! My wife loved the tranquility of sitting in the hot tub at night with a million stars overhead....again something we don't have in New York City. The kids loved the pool and flying kites in the huge meadow. What a wonderful spot for all of us. All that you have done to create this perfect vacation home made mothers birthday truly special and gave our family the opportunity to be together but not on top of each other! Everyone had a great time. You really have created something special. It was a vacation we will all remember.

We have vacationed in many rental homes and we have to tell you that this is by far the most perfect rental we have ever stayed in. You have gone above and beyond to make your home, clean, comfortable and up to date with every detail being just perfect. We loved the comfort you created inside and outside of your home. Your gardens are amazing! The children loved the heated pool and playing in the meadow. We had never used a saltwater/mineral pool before and will never swim in chlorine again! What a great location...so central to everything and as you said... but away from the crowds. We now understand why you said it took you years to find this perfect location! It really is perfect. Bill loves to cook and could not believe your kitchen. He thought he had all the "kitchen toys" but after cooking in your kitchen went home with a list of things he just had to have! Last but not least..you were both great! We learned so much about the out of the way places that we never would have found without your tips and all the veggies your would drop off from the garden were so delicious and such a wonderful surprise. You really made us feel like this was our home. Thank You Thank You Thank You. We booked 2011 before we left and hope to now make this our annual family retreat.
