Wander Cuttyhunk Waterfront is a secluded island retreat designed for true escape—think decompressing, disconnecting, and reconnecting with the people who matter most. Set on the water with private direct beach and boating access, the home’s generous south-facing deck offers expansive views of the harbor and Gay Head on Martha’s Vineyard, along with sunrise light that fills the house throughout the day. Follow the path down to your own sandy beach, perfect for kayaking, boating, fishing, or swimming with children and friends, or take a short walk or golf cart ride to nearby Churches Beach on the Atlantic Ocean. After a day in the sun, unwind back at the house with a casual movie night in the bonus media room, fire up the BBQ, or rinse off in the outdoor shower and savor the calm of island living.
Nestled on Cuttyhunk Island, this location provides peaceful access to protected harbor waters, beautiful beaches, and scenic hiking trails. Guests can spend their days kayaking or paddleboarding through calm coves, sailing along the Elizabeth Islands, or fishing in some of the region’s most pristine waters. The island’s charming village atmosphere invites leisurely walks to the local market, ice cream stand, and historic church, while nearby lookout points offer breathtaking sunset views across Buzzards Bay.
