LIVE ON THE WATER! 

 

Direct waterfront with 60 foot frontage on Lake Tashmoo.  Here is a rare opportunity to live in this much sought after location on the Vineyard.  

 

 The house is a stunning architect designed contemporary home on Lake Tashmoo in Vineyard Haven/Tisbury, in a very quiet area.  The sun sets over the lake, in view of your deck.  You can have a sailboat right on your own beach, and sail the lake as well as nearby Vineyard Sound.   

 

As the pictures show, the house has many windows that give a wonderful sense of the outdoors, with ever changing views of the water as well as the woods.   Exposed timber construction.  Fully insulated.  The large deck overlooking the lake is perfect for entertaining or just relaxing. The house is very open, sleeps 6, and has 2 full baths and an outdoor shower. 

 

From the master bed, you look out over your feet to Lake Tashmoo.  You will see the moon  pass during the night, or just enjoy the beauty of the night, and the dawn of the new day. A sleeping porch with a single bed looks out to both woods and lake. The den can be closed to create a separate guest suite. Included is a large garage, with loft storage.  

 

On the roof is a "Widow's Walk", from which the view is even better, and it is a great place to simply enjoy life.

 

The house is at the end of a 900 foot driveway through the woods, so there  is no traffic.  The beach slopes very gradually, so it is safe for small children.   Your rowboat is at water's edge on your beach.  You can row to spots where you can dig steamers, littlenecks, cherrystones and quahogs.  

 

 Lake Tashmoo is a spectacular, little known treasure on the Vineyard.  It is called "Lake" Tashmoo because it was a fresh water lake until the 1938 hurricane opened it up to Vineyard Sound.

 

 You are just about a mile from Vineyard Haven, with shopping, movie theater, restaurants and the excellent Vineyard Haven Library
