This gabled summer homestead is distinctive in appeal and right at home in its surroundings. Sited just across from South Beach in Edgartown, the main structure was designed as an upside-down house, placing family gathering spaces and the primary bedroom suite on the second floor to capture panoramic ocean vistas with additional bedroom chambers and recreational areas below. A welcoming carriage house flanks the front motor court, while a cabana serves the aquatic program at the rear of property.
A modern program of indoor/outdoor entertaining was specified to maximize enjoyment of the residence in warm weather months. Abundant decking allows for full appreciation of water views, while spaces for swimming, gathering by the fire, and dining al fresco were all purposely planned. The result is a timeless homestead built for memory making that will endure well into the future.
