Edgartown Condo for Sale

Edgartown, located on Martha’s Vineyard, is characterized by its historic charm and picturesque waterfront. The downtown area features densely packed, brick-lined streets with gray-shingled buildings, inns, cafes, and retail stores. White picket fences and waterfront sea captain’s houses add to the neighborhood's classic New England aesthetic. The residential streets, with their storybook village feel, are protected by historic district regulations that preserve their exterior appearances. Katama, a rural neighborhood on the south side of Edgartown, offers larger home lots, a farm, and South Beach, known for its soft sand and big waves. Edgartown Great Pond is a popular spot for kayaking and building dream homes. Chappaquiddick Island, or “Chappy,” accessible by a short ferry ride, is mostly conservation land with grand homes and beautiful beaches. The island's only store, Blackbird Cafe, highlights the area's remote charm. Edgartown maintains relatively low property taxes due to its robust commercial tax base and historical buildings. The town is home to some of the island’s most popular restaurants and bars, including Rockfish, Rosewater Market, Alchemy Bistro & Bar, and 19 Raw Oyster Bar. For education, children attend Edgartown School for kindergarten through eighth grade, while high schoolers go to the highly rated Martha’s Vineyard Regional High School. The town is connected to Cape Cod by ferry and has easy access to other parts of the island via Beach Road and Edgartown-West Tisbury Road. The nearby Martha’s Vineyard Airport offers flights to Boston year-round and seasonal connections to major cities.
