Listing broker remarks

Beach Farm is an extraordinary 18.6-acre waterfront estate offering exceptional privacy, 1,700 feet of water frontage, sweeping Atlantic views, private beaches, a rare walking path to the pristine South Shore, and a short bike ride to Edgartown Village. The estate is set within the storied 200-acre Herring Creek Farm, a coastal enclave surrounding a working farm with barns, horses, sheep, and open meadows. Bordering both the 900-acre Edgartown Great Pond and the Atlantic Ocean, Beach Farm includes a six-bedroom main residence completed in 2023 with expansive walls of glass that frame dramatic, panoramic views across the pond and ocean. Built to the highest standards by master craftsmen, the home is complemented by a three bedroom surf house with outdoor sauna, cold plunge, a workout barn, private walking trails, and secluded beaches.— MGS Group Real Estate LTD
