This beautiful home lies on over a ½ of an acre of prime Edgartown harbor front land. The house was built in 1909 and was constructed on the original site of Governor Mayhew's summer residence, built in 1642, Governor Mayhew was one of the early settlers in Edgartown and chose this site as the finest lot on the harbor to build his home. The six-bedroom main house is in good condition and is highly situated with commanding views down a sloping grass hill, over Collins Beach, the central harbor and beyond to Chappaquiddick. The home features a large sun porch wrapping around the water side and the second-floor bedrooms access an expansive, exterior deck. There is a one-bedroom apartment above a 2-car carriage house. All of the grounds are wonderfully landscaped offering the largest expanse of grass on the inner harbor. There is also a deep-water pier configured to host a number of boats.
