40 Norton Farm Rd Vineyard Haven, MA 02568

A COUNTRY MANOR HIGH ON A HILL - Designed by owners who understand that elegance and relaxation can co-exist. A graceful stone wall and circular drive create a sophisticated setting on a large parcel of land. The community provides two private beaches within a 1/2 mile of the property. One beach is at the bottom of a dramatic overlook with spectacular water views and the other, more user-friendly with an ability to walk directly on the beach. As you enter the home, the crafted stairway separates the living space. The living room is enhanced with a classic Vineyard stone fireplace. The piece de resistance is the wood paneled sunken library beyond which becomes a quiet space for reading, games and creative chatter. A casual den leads to an en suite master bedroom with fireplace and private balcony. The meaning of ''cook's kitchen'' is not wasted here - there are two stoves and two refrigerators and an over-sized island. There are also a breakfast room and a grand formal dining room. French doors and windows overlook the expansive back yard and pool. Two en suite guest bedrooms with private balconies, one with a fireplace, occupy the second floor and enjoy distant water views. With a 5 bedroom septic in place, the third floor with more capacious water views, a full bath and balcony can be used as another living room or converted to a fourth bedroom. Chic, European flavor on the Vineyard or transform to chic coastal contemporary
