Edgartown Real Estate

A home for all seasons and multiple purposes --- If you choose to have a comfortable, kick-your-shoes-off, not-fussy, beach home on the tranquil, non-commercial island of Chappaquiddick, then this is your destination. The fabulous, pristine, seemingly endless miles of shoreline at East Beach, just over Dike Bridge, is only 1.3 miles distant. The gorgeous beaches at Wasque Point, where you also find some of the finest surf casting on the east coast, are only 2.1 miles away and the 30.6 acre MV Land Bank Quammox preserve with its small boat landing on Katama Bay is only 9/10 mile from the property. Chappaquiddick is crisscrossed with walking trails, two of which are a short distance from the front door. If your goal is to establish a firmer, year-round foothold on this idyllic, pastoral island, two ferries removed from the stresses and uncertainty of the modern world, then this can also be your destination. It is currently the home of a well-known fine artist with an impressive studio and a boat builder specializing in small wooden boats with an equally impressive workshop in an adjacent building. The year-round Chappaquiddick community embraces its residents with many neighborhood functions and activities that create a tapestry of connections that make life there very pleasant at all times of the year. Whatever your purpose, this 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom, 2,046 square foot home, situated on almost a half-acre of easily maintained lawns and colorful, natural gardens, offers a great platform for your exciting future.
