Welcome to Martha's Vineyard
and to my home in Chilmark!! I have been coming to the Vineyard for over 30
years, and it's my favorite place on the planet. When I bought the house in
1999, it was the fulfillment of a long-time dream.
As a renter for all those
years, I have pretty much figured out what makes a vacation house attractive
and comfortable. In fact, I had rented this house for my own vacation--and then
ended up buying it!
Ten Reasons Why This Is
A Great House:
- It's located on North
Road, equally convenient to both Chilmark and West Tisbury centers and an
easy trip to all three down island towns--Vineyard Haven, Edgartown, and Oak
Bluffs.
- I can safely walk along
North Road, and I can ride my bike to Alley's for the paper.
- I think that Lucy Vincent
Beach is the most beautiful beach anywhere--and to use this beach, you have
to be staying in Chilmark.
- The house has everything
I need all on the first floor, and when my friends come to visit, they have
their own space on the second floor.
- With four bedrooms,
two baths, and a separate family room, it's spacious and can comfortably accommodate
couples, folks with kids, and even a couple of families who want to share
their vacation.
- It's quiet and private.
- It has the amenities
that I'd just as soon not do without--a dishwasher, a coffee pot that works,
dishes that match, a microwave, a gas grill, pots and pans that still have
the teflon on them, a cable TV with VCR and DVD, cordless phones with answering
machine, and wireless Internet access.
- I never liked going
to the dump or cleaning the house the last night of vacation, so trash pick
up and cleaning are included in the rent.
- I can get fresh-from-the-boat
fish any time I want it right down the road in Menemsha.
- And last, but far from
least--it's just a short drive to Chilmark Chocolates!!!
