Boldwater Waterfront Estate, Edgartown
Sponsored by Tea Lane Associates
Spectacular 35 acre Boldwater Association waterfront estate on Edgartown Great Pond with breathtaking views over 1,000 ft wide low brushy pond front terrain and across the 3/4 mile wide Lyles Bay, dreamy Swan Neck Point, the 1 1/2 mile wide main pond and barrier beach to the ocean beyond. The handful of well pruned trees on the property enhance the water views. The sophisticated and charming quality house was built by Andrew Flake, arguably the finest Vineyard builder over the last 40 years. Mark Hutker created an innovative design with an arc shape nautical theme so every room faces the water. The 3 second floor bedrooms enjoy large balconies and the first floor primary bedroom opens to a nice deck and quiet garden sanctuary. The handmade luxury kitchen cabinetry and extensive woodworking were done by Smallbone, a British Company noted for time honored design and craftsmanship. Adding to this estate, reflecting decades of careful planning and development, is a lovely private pool and pool house, 4 room guest suite over the garage with large deck, two stone wall enclosed specimen fruit tree meadows, a large field circled by a grand stone wall, a idyllic lily pond and two miles of private trails. Last but not least, are 14+ subdividable acres. Keep boats and small craft on your mooring at waters edge for a short trip to the 3,000 ft Boldwater private beach. Boldwater is 38 homesites on 450 acres with 150 acres of conservation and abuts approx. 1,500 acres of conservation lands and a few large estates. A most remarkable rural area convenient to town and the airport.
