This shingled farmhouse-style home on Martha’s Vineyard would make a lovely year-round retreat. Located in the small town of Chilmark, the 2003-built, architect-owned home offers rustic yet sophisticated charm on over three private acres surrounded by pine and oak trees.

The house itself is small—measures just 800 square feet—but it actually comprises two structures: a saltbox that makes up the primary space, and a flexible, open-plan barn-style living room. The two are connected by a mahogany deck.

In the main program, an open kitchen with breakfast bench and a half bath are set on the ground floor along with a covered porch, while a bedroom and a full bath are found upstairs.

Across the way, the barn boasts a double-sided stone fireplace (the other side opens to the deck), a soaring open-truss ceiling, a half bath, and French doors that open directly onto the landscape.

Wide-plank flooring, two full basements, radiant heating, outdoor shower, and a new cedar roof round out some of the features of the property. Located at 15 Old Farm Road, it’s offered at $1,195,000.
