WELCOME TO COASTWISE HOUSE! This spacious, comfortably furnished home is in the Up Island part of the Vineyard, conveniently located between Chilmark and West Tisbury. The layout of the house makes it perfect for individuals, couples, families with kids, and ''bubble'' groups who want to share their vacations--or to have an extended stay while still being able to easily work from home.
The master bedroom and a bath are downstairs (queen); three bedrooms (queen, double, two twins) and a bath are upstairs off the loft that overlooks the living and dining rooms. The open living and dining areas have a cathedral ceiling, wood floors, and operable skylights. The well-equipped kitchen was recently renovated. There is a large, separate family room/home office (queen sofa bed) with a TV and two desks, plus a spacious deck with a gas grill, table for outdoor eating, and furniture for relaxing.
The house is fully equipped, including all appliances, two cable TVs with DVR and DVDs, CD player, Bluetooth speaker, gas grill, ceiling fans, air conditioning, and wired/wireless high speed Internet. The house is set up and back from the road, surrounded by woods and a large, landscaped, private yard that faces away from the road, with plenty of parking.
Chilmark is a quintessential, Up Island town--rural, picturesque, laid-back, and tranquil with rolling meadows, working farms, and open vistas to the ocean--in many ways, another breathtaking world from what most of us are accustomed to. Menemsha is part of Chilmark and is a working fishing port. There you'll find the freshest fish you'll ever eat and extraordinary sunsets. The twice weekly Artisans' Festival and Farmers' Market, both Island traditions, are are located in nearby West Tisbury--as is access to the extensive network of Island bike trails. Still, it's also within an easy reach of fundamental services: a grocery store, lovely restaurants, a bank and ATM, the library, and the Chilmark Community Center with lots of activities and tennis courts available--all Up Island. The three Down-Island towns of Edgartown, Vineyard Haven, and Oak Bluffs are the shopping and night-life centers, each unique and an easy drive. Ferry service to the Island is in Vineyard Haven and Oak Bluffs.
But what sets Chilmark apart is Lucy Vincent Beach, lovely and facing south to the open ocean, with clean white sand; beach grass wafting in the ocean breeze; the rhythmic sound of the surf; and opportunities for sunning, boogie boarding, strolling the beach, and collecting shells and beach stones. Chilmark also has two other beaches, Squibnocket which is smaller than LVB and also ocean-facing, and Menemsha which has calm water, fishing from the jetty, and the small fishing fleet as its backdrop...and you'll have easy access to all three beaches.
