Totally renovated in 2001/2002, Wasque Watch is a lovely and historic Victorian home, noted on maps of Martha’s Vineyard from the turn of the century on.

The unique tower suite is the highest point on Chappy. Used by the Coast Guard in World War II, the 360 degree breathtaking tower views extend to Nantucket in the East and the Atlantic to the West.

From the first floor to the east, you can see Pocha Pond and Nantucket Sound, to the South there is a spectacular view of Katama Bay, the barrier beach and the Atlantic Ocean. Five acres of secluded grassy fields and trees face the house, two adjoining cabins, and a private Har-Tru tennis court.

A short walk brings you to the private bay beach. Land Bank territory is directly across the dirt road from the house, with immediate access to the Chappaquiddick walking trail system and paths to Pocha Pond. The entrance to the Wasque Ocean Beach (Trustees of Reservations) is a half mile walk, in the midst of acres of pristine ocean beaches with the best fishing in the Eastern Seaboard.


Perfect for family reunions or several families, the home sleeps 19 people and includes a contemporary kitchen, new master bedroom and bath with gas stove, and all new bathrooms. (see full list of amenities below)
