70 Spring Street, Vineyard Haven

$2,850,000

Storybook setting in the quaint seaside village of Vineyard Haven, the commanding Captain Gilbert L. Smith House, c. 1854, affords an enchanting opportunity for space and privacy within the highly sought after William Street Historic District and just two blocks to all the shops, restaurants, galleries, town beach, tennis, and ferry. The property also has potential for an additional buildable lot. For 35 years, home of Susan Branch, the illustrious self-taught artist and author of New York Times best-seller "Martha's Vineyard, Isle of Dreams," this quintessential Greek Revival gem with Neoclassical touches enjoys over 3,300 s.f. of living space on more than a half acre in town with wood floors throughout and day long, east to west sunlight. With period paneling, crown molding, and 9' ceilings, the floor plan includes front hall entry with lovely curved staircase, front parlor-studio, formal living room with fireplace and bay window, spacious dining room, second side entrance vestibule used as a dry bar, cozy wood paneled study/tv room, eat-in kitchen with wainscotting, east-facing side porch, laundry/storage room, and a half bath. With a convenient back staircase off the kitchen, the second floor includes additional spacious rooms: A large primary bedroom with fireplace and ensuite bath, sitting room, three additional bedrooms, one with bay window, plus two additional full baths. Wonderful two-story carriage house - barn, expansive lawn and yard, tea-house pergola for afternoon tea, cocktail social, and alfresco dining. Seller has plans for potential renovation of the barn to include a studio apartment - see Documents. Mature plantings including privet, flowering trees and bushes, perennials, historic Linden trees, and herb garden. Six bedroom approved Title 5 septic. A rare opportunity for those who appreciate the history and value of historic homes in a sailing port which as been described as "the sweetest little harbor on the east coast." *Extensive list of furnishings and household items available for purchase by separate bill of sale.
