The Island Collection MV: Enjoy This 1850s Victorian Home With Ocean Views!
Enjoy a relaxing ferry ride to Oak Bluffs and its picturesque surroundings. Once your ferry ride ends, you’re steps away from home! This newly renovated, elegant, enchanting, and historical bright yellow Victorian home was built in the 1850s. Speaking of ocean views….enjoy the benefits of having an ocean view right in your front yard! Located on Ocean Avenue you can see the entire ocean from this lovely home, which has 7 bedrooms, 4 full bathrooms and comfortably sleeps 14 people. There is one parking space available on the street, a gas grill on the back patio, and an outdoor shower for your convenience.
As you enter the home, you will be amazed at the beauty of the fireplace. On the first floor, enjoy an ocean view room with a fireplace. There is also one large bedroom with one queen bed and one twin bed. On the second floor, enjoy a beautiful and cozy ocean view room with a telescope. There are also five bedrooms with a queen bed in each; and one bedroom with two twin beds. There are four full bathrooms located throughout the home for your convenience.
This beautiful home has all new appointments such as: a new kitchen, new granite counter tops, new showers, new mattresses for all beds, all new furniture with an entirely furnished home, new air conditioners, and the home is freshly painted.
Indulge in a wonderful meal with your family in the formal blue and white dining room, which the owners lovingly refer to as “The Great Wall of China!” Relax and enjoy the spacious family room, living room, and formal dining room which all comfortably seat 14 people.
Conveniently located steps away from the ferry, this home is only 100 feet away from the beach. As the home is located in town, you are close to quaint downtown shopping, night life, restaurants, churches, parks, hiking and bike paths and trails, deep sea fishing, car, bike and motor cycle rentals. Enjoy a tour around the island by way of public transportation (the bus stop), or taxi.
From your front porch, look at the beautiful ocean view, which includes a park and gazebo where you will see people getting married and feel their job of beginning their lives as one. Listen to various genres of music in the park performed by local and national bands. Watch fireworks from the lower and upper decks of the home.
Witness the uplifting joy of experiencing people fly kites or indulge in this activity for your own pleasure.
This house is featured on many postcards, calendars, and other media. It is very well known throughout Oak Bluffs! Even the new 2015 Martha's Vineyard calendar features this premier home inside for the month of October.
As you can see, there is no need for a car…you’re in Oak Bluffs, where the action is only a short walk away! After a long day at the beach, shopping, dining, and fun, you’re steps away from home! We look forward to seeing you!
We adhere to the customs for home rentals on the Vineyard, which do not include linens (sheets, pillowcases, towels, or beach towels) as a part of the rental experience. Please arrange to bring your own linens or visit www.marthaslinenrental.com to place an order for your linen rental.
