About this property

Walk to private beach from beautiful Abels Hill house

The house is a large family house in the Abels Hill community of Chilmark. The community shares use of a private south shore beach with beautiful Chilmark Pond for kayaking or canoeing, a tennis court, and access to miles of hiking trails.

The house has 6 bedrooms, and sleeps 13. 3 King sized beds, 1 Queen. 2 Doubles. One of the double bedrooms also has a twin. A large vaulted ceiling living/dining room looks out a glass wall over the 5 acre meadow with stone wall and organic vegetable garden that you can harvest from for your dinner or green smoothie! An exterior seating area on a deck w grill extends the living room and overlooks the meadow.

2 full bathrooms plus a powder room and outdoor shower with stained glass window!

A TV room and a music room, with electric piano, saxophone, bass, drum kit and drum machine are extra spaces for rainy days.

Its easy to walk to the beach and the pond from the house, which is across south road, just down the hill. To get to the beach you either use the Abel’s hill small boat which seats 4, our kayak (which seats 2), or wade across the shallow pond. Hiking trails for woodland running or hiking from Abels Hill take you to acres of magical preserved forests.

The house is simple, colorful and joyful.
