Chilmark Real Estate

Forty six extraordinary acres on Black Point Pond with easy access to Black Point sandy ocean beach. Magical expansive views of meadows, pond and ocean. This estate-sized property abuts 140 acres of Sheriff's Meadow conservation land, offering exceptional privacy. A simple 1041 square foot two bedroom home sits on one lot with two detached studios alongside. Close to nature, this seasonal home (April through October) was built in 1973 and evokes an earlier and simpler time. Use as is, build anew or significantly expand and/or modify the existing dwelling. There is a second abutting buildable lot with many options as well. Enjoyed as a summer retreat by one family for three generations, this is the only private home on Black Point Pond. Walking into the generous, inviting wood panelled living room, the eye is drawn to the large windows opening to expansive views. Rolling meadows, pond, and endless sea and sky… this blend of fields and water stretching into the horizon is the property's backyard. Gazing out from the two-story shingled home it's easy to imagine the legacy of this land, the family that grazed their sheep and for generations tended the land, and the more recent history over the last 50 years of family backyard cookouts, children catching crabs in the nearby creek and bike rides down the dirt road to idyllic Black Point Beach where expansive stretches of white sand run between Black Point Pond and the Atlantic Ocean. A short walking path leads from the house to a kayak rack on the pond. Paddle and explore the pond or walk, bike, kayak or drive to nearby Black Point Beach. These three lots (6 acres, 6 acres and 34 acres) are being offered together for the first time in over fifty years. Two of the lots (Lots 1 and 2) are buildable while the third lot (the Meadow Lot) provides view protection for lots 1 and 2 and frontage on beautiful Black Point Pond. A Black Point Beach lot is also included as part of this offering and will give a new owner membership in the Black Point Beach Association. This is a rare opportunity to purchase an estate-sized parcel on Chilmark's south shore with enormous privacy, stunning views, private pond frontage, two buildable lots and access to one of the most spectacular beaches on Martha's Vineyard.
