Standing on the ridge top, you're at one of the highest points on Martha's Vineyard. This 3.01 acre parcel looks out over the trees of Red Farm and the dramatic blue expanse of Vineyard Sound. It's easy to understand why this property is so special. There's a generous designated building envelope of 1.41 acres to allow a Buyer to build a significant house with multi level views of the water and additional structures with proper permitting. Thoughtful planning and preparation of the Tower Hill Declaration for the area creates a deeded view easement and greenbelt area to preserve the serenity, privacy and experience of being surrounded by nature while still being minutes away from West Tisbury center. The abutting lots have already been developed, demonstrating the type of home, landscape, and view possible for 38 Fire Tower Road. Outlands Design has created architectural rendering, shown via the CGI imagery photos to help envision a home, infinity pool, driveway and landscaping. The property is staked, and surveyed with paths cleared to make showing easy. NHESP requirements met. Perc test done and the well (12 gpm) has been installed.
