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!

We didn't realize how beautiful and unique the architecture of this residence was before we arrived. It is a gorgeous place and we were please by the cleanliness and simplicity of it.

Wonderful place for a getaway to MV. Well appointed, comfy home with great pool. Plenty of privacy but easy to get to. Enjoyed our stay
6 / 10Average·Aug 2025
This is a home that - at one time - was absolutely stunning. The architecture and floor plan are ideal for a family vacation home UpIsland on MV. Unfortunately, the house has been poorly maintained, which significantly detracted from what could have been an exceptional stay.While I appreciate a rustic, lived-in feel, basic cleanliness and functionality should be non-negotiable. The area rugs were visibly dirty and clearly have not been cleaned in quite some time. The furniture showed extensive staining, the lamp above the kitchen table was moldy. The sliding doors were difficult to operate properly, and the screen doors had holes that let in insects.Personal belongings were scattered throughout every room and filled most closets, leaving little storage space for guests. The lack of any welcome information or house manual left us guessing about basic procedures like trash and recycling pickup, appliance operation, and check-out requirements.Most concerning were the unannounced visits from service workers. While property maintenance is important, guests should be notified in advance when workers will be on-site. We had an uncomfortable situation when the pool maintenance person arrived while one of our party was using the outdoor shower area.The bones of this property are truly wonderful, and with proper attention to cleanliness, maintenance, and guest communication, it could easily be a five-star rental. Currently it falls short of VRBO standards despite the premium price.
