Set on 60 acres along one of the most private and unspoiled stretches of Atlantic coastline in Chilmark, this exceptional estate offers a rare combination of scale, privacy, and enduring coastal beauty. With over 800 feet of direct ocean frontage, the property commands expansive views while maintaining a true sense of seclusion, an increasingly scarce offering on Martha’s Vineyard. A gated drive winds through scenic farmland and open fields, running along the edge of Quenames Cove before arriving at your own white sand beach and the Atlantic Ocean. The setting is defined by open land and natural surroundings, creating a sense of space, privacy, and uninterrupted views. The compound consists of five thoughtfully crafted structures. The original 1842 Farmhouse has been meticulously restored and fully modernized, preserving its original character while introducing thoughtful updates, modern systems, and high-quality finishes. A detached structure offers flexible space for a gym or additional accommodations, while the Guest House and Bunk House retain their Vineyard charm, each benefiting from substantial upgrades. A newly constructed garage/barn with lofted storage is discreetly positioned nearby, complementing the functionality of the estate. The property offers both immediate livability and long-term significance. It represents far more than a residence, it is a generational holding defined by land, scale, and irreplaceability. Large, contiguous oceanfront parcels of this caliber are rarely brought to market, particularly in Chilmark, making this a truly one-of-a-kind offering. For those seeking exceptional privacy, scale, and enduring value, this estate stands as one of the most compelling oceanfront opportunities, not only on Martha’s Vineyard, but among coastal properties worldwide.

Floor 1 Description
The first floor of the Farmhouse showcases an exquisite kitchen with 2-inch-thick custom Carrara marble countertops imported from Italy, crafted from the same batch used throughout the home. High-end appliances complement the luxurious design, creating a culinary space of exceptional quality. Two electronically controlled screened-in porch areas offer indoor/outdoor seating and dining options, seamlessly blending indoor and outdoor living through large custom Hirschmann doors built in Vermont. The living room centers around a gas-powered concrete fireplace, custom-designed by Isaac Taylor. Additional features include a guest powder room, two closets, one for electronic and AV systems and another for the hot water heater, and engineered large plank white oak floors throughout. A thick glass paneled stair case, made completely of white oak takes you to the second floor.
Floor 2 Description
The second floor features two beautifully appointed bedrooms, each with a full en-suite bathroom adorned with stunning Carrara marble imported from Italy, sourced from the same batch as the kitchen countertops. Both bedrooms have their own private deck. Custom closets with cabinetry by John Thayer provide elegant storage solutions, while glasswork by Dukes County Glass enhances the refined finishes. Between the 2 bedrooms is a laundry room with full size washer/dryer, sink and plenty of storage.
