Vineyard Haven Harborfront
with Private Beach
This beautifully proportioned in-town waterfront home on more than 1.5 acres is tailored for indoor-outdoor living.
The driveway slopes down gently from Main Street, first passing the two-car garage and then the guest house before reaching the impeccable home with spectacular harbor views from three levels where spacious open living areas blend with pockets of privacy.
The entry foyer overlooks the living/dining area and establishes a clear axis from one end of the house to the other. High ceilings help to maximize the captivating harbor view revealed through three sets of French doors across the open porch. The fieldstone fireplace and oak flooring provide a wonderful sense of intimacy. The stylish yet highly functional chef’s kitchen is open to the living area allowing the cook to connect with family and guests. The owner says she spends many hours in the kitchen so a water view was important to her. A connecting screen porch invites casual dining overlooking the busy harbor. An adjacent butler’s pantry and mudroom lead outside to the sun-drenched bluestone terrace with an outdoor kitchen where the owners enjoy grilling.
A cherry-paneled study with a fireplace, built-in shelving on three sides and its own sitting porch that invites breezes and sunlight provides a private retreat at the opposite side of the first floor.
The second floor has a central gallery that creates privacy for all four en suite bedrooms, one with a fireplace. The master suite has a commanding view of the harbor, a walk-through closet and opulent bathroom with double vanities, a soaking tub and oversize shower. Two sitting rooms at either end of the gallery allow more tranquil spaces to relax or work.
Currently the third floor is used as an office and has built-in cabinetry, cozy reading nooks in front of half-round windows and stairs to the large widow’s walk.
The walkout lower level with high ceilings contains a gym, wine cellar, wet bar, media room and laundry. An elevator runs from the basement to the second floor.
The meticulously maintained grounds include lush plantings of shrubs and perennials that provide privacy, a bluestone terrace with a large gunite Jacuzzi and a lush lawn stepping down to a private sandy beach. Have your boat moored nearby or enjoy the fantastic swimming just steps away.
The charming 1,300-square-foot guest house rises above the main residence, allowing it to capture the same water views. The ground level features an open living room, dining area and kitchen with an adjacent half bath. The second floor has a large bedroom and bathroom and a third floor bedroom, which can be closed off from the second floor, has French doors to a deck. The septic system would allow for a third bedroom. Closer to Main Street is the two-car garage with ample storage space.
The calm elegance of the house is expressed in its balance of sophisticated and informal spaces.
