Perched above Menemsha Pond, this exquisite new five-bedroom home combines state-of-the-art construction with all the elements for the ideal Vineyard experience including some of the best water views on the island, Menemsha Pond access via walking path, heated Gunite pool, and the privacy and protection of abutting conservation land with no building allowed between this house and Menemsha Pond. This substantial and tasteful home with contemporary style has been thoughtfully designed into the surroundings. Only the finest craftsmanship and materials were used including Lutron lighting, Will Parry custom doors, local custom cabinetry, walnut floors, and two solar flowers which track the sun as a 5kw system. With an open floor plan for everyday living and plenty of room to expand when entertaining guests, this smart layout includes all bedroom/bathroom suites and a dedicated gym or yoga room with full bathroom. Flowing from the indoors out, through the screened porch and expansive deck, to the rolling landscape beyond, stone walls and pathways lead you from the main house to the detached guest suite and on to the pool and pool house where sliding cedar barn doors reveal an outdoor kitchen area and indoor changing room and bathroom. From there, the walking path to the pond awaits. Deeded view easement and deeded pond access with beach usage included. This section of Menemsha Pond is lovely and shallow, where little ones could spend hours playing safely and being entertained by the wildlife. Seller currently has two moorings on the pond and will transfer. Additionally, Aquinnah home ownership gives you Philbin Beach on the south shore and dog-friendly Lobsterville beach on the north shore. This is a rare opportunity for new high-end construction and an unparalleled combination of elements creating an experience that is truly the best of up-island living!
