Enjoy the beauty of Martha's Vineyard in classic mid-century style at this four-bedroom Chilmark home! This is a unique and secluded architectural gem with a private swimming pool and deck, beautiful ocean views, and nearby access to some of the island's most sought after beaches.

Built in 1964 by the award-winning architect Eliot Noyes, of The Harvard Five, the residence was featured in Life Magazine. This iconic single-level home sits just five minutes from Menemsha beach. The property is wonderfully private, yet it's also only three minutes from Lucy Vincent Beach and three miles from the recently renovated Squibnocket Beach; both of which can be accessed by bringing the rental agreement to town hall at Beetlebung Corner for the permit.

With exterior walls constructed almost entirely of floor-to-ceiling glass, this oceanview home is composed of three components closely connected by covered decks. It’s the perfect place for a family getaway, a stylish retreat, or a beach vacation with close friends.

Step inside the open living space to find an abundance of mid-century design, exposed wood ceilings, and plenty of seating for your guests. Admire the views of the ocean and the surrounding trees and garden as you choose a book from the shelves, sit down to play a board game, browse the WiFi, or curl up by the flatscreen cable TV.

Wake up each morning with the help of the Nespresso machine in the kitchen, which also features open shelving and a dishwasher for your convenience. Flip pancakes and scrambled eggs with your kids and sit down as a family around the dining table for eight.

You'll be only a short drive from Menemsha, Lucy Vincent, and Squibnocket Beaches, but you'll also have access to a gorgeous private swimming pool. Sunbathe on the deck with a cocktail in hand, play a game of cards at one of the patio tables, and then light the gas grill for an afternoon barbecue.

The yard, enclosed by a beautiful stone wall, offers a wonderful space for picnicking, playing and relaxing, while the outdoor shower and private washer/dryer help keep the sand and grass outside.

With four bedrooms (that are separate from the main living area) and two bathrooms, The Eliot Noyes will accommodate as many as eight guests. You'll find one king bedroom, one queen bedroom, and two bedrooms with a set of twin beds apiece - each of which opens onto a gorgeous, private deck space.

Known for its tranquil atmosphere and scenic natural beauty, Chilmark is the perfect place to escape the hustle and bustle of everyday life. Spend your days basking in the sun on Menemsha Beach or pick up a pass to access the private stretches of sand at Lucy Vincent and Squibnocket Beaches.

You'll also be just three miles from the Menemsha Hills Reservation, a 211-acre expanse that is ideal for hiking among wetlands, woodlands, and the island's second-highest peak.

Come and experience this stunning glimpse of island life. Book your getaway at the Eliot Noyes House on Martha’s Vineyard today!

If you are looking for a great home in the island, this is it! It’s very private and off the beaten path. For us, we loved it as the beaches were just a short drive away, as were the nearby villages too. The home is very unique and have a great floor plan. It’s full of local art, keepsakes and has lovely grounds. Absolutely beautiful! The home is rustic maybe to some, but had all the amenities we needed. The pool was an added bonus too. We were happy to leave the hustle and bustle of Edgartown and Oak Bluffs ; our private drive on a lovely wooded lot was perfect. Ocean views from the deck were perfect. Loved it!

waiting for property manager to reply to the issue that has been recapped with them since arrival. even though VRBO listing said heat was available, it was not. and fireplace was not available. and it was really cold--which ruined any opportunity to use the location in day or night for three days. awaiting response before any final review and further VRBO bookings

Overall my friends and I have come twice to the Noyes house and are planning to come back next year. As long as you’re comfortable not staying near the main towns, it’s an ideal location - close to the markets and stores of west tisbury, several of the best beaches on the island (Lucy Vincent and Aquinnah in particular), the Chilmark general store, and some of the best farms like beetlebung. The house is something between rustic and luxury, which is deal for a group of friends. It’s not a big deal to us that some of the screen doors are prone to come out of the track or that the pool is a bit cold. That small stuff is outweighed by a very cool, unique place with all the beach supplies you’d need, in what I think is an ideal up island location.

Clear and honest architecture, a special place that makes the most of its site. (This from 4 architects who stayed here together; a tough crowd!)

I booked this house because it had a pool and it did not disappoint us! My family had a great time playing in the pool. It was so nice to jump in after a hot day being out and about. I was a bit concerned about not having AC but it wasn’t bad at all.

We loved staying here. The open concept layout was perfect for our group. I really appreciated all the interesting art and little details of the interior. Carried more personal character than staged airbnb feel. The rooms being separated by the common space really gave us all privacy. Waking up to the ocean view was such a treat. Place felt relatively clean upon arrival. The pool was nice but didn't use it much because it wasn't heated. Would have loved to use it more!
