Welcome to 42 Sumner Circle in West Tisbury. Our home was custom designed by a Portuguese architect in the mid 1970’s for a family with roots on Martha’s Vineyard. After its construction, the house was written up in the Better Homes and Garden magazine in 1976. There is a framed copy of the article near the stairway. The original owners told us that after the article appeared, they would get uninvited visitors showing up and requesting tours!
We purchased our home in 2006 and have been doing extensive renovations since. All of the exterior siding, decks, windows and doors were replaced. Additionally, we had central air conditioning installed, electrical upgrades, and we had the basement dug out Both bathrooms have been redone. Also, we have been landscaping including a new lawn, the Japanese maples and the Viburnum trees in the yard. Our latest addition is a sculpture on the lawn that we commissioned.
