Top 12 Best Tourist Attractions in Edgartown - Massachusetts: Edgartown Lighthouse, South Beach, Chappaquiddick, Morning Glory Farm, Mytoi, Bad Martha Farmer's Brewery, Katama Airfield, Katama Beach, Martha's Vineyard Museum, Old Whaling Church, Edgartown Public Library, Bend in the Road Beach,
West Tisbury, Massachusetts on the island of Martha's Vineyard
FOR MORE INFORMATION: - Time slips away easily in West Tisbury. The clock in the church tower is hand-wound, and strikes the hour by day and night. Music Street, in the heart of the village, got its name from the sound of the pianos brought back by the whaling captains and heard through open windows 150 years ago. The tiny police station by the Mill Pond is just as described in the mystery books of 13th generation town resident Cynthia Riggs. Across the street, an old country store, long since closed, collapses in on itself. In the town cemetery, visitors leave small toy birds on the grave of 19th century poet Nancy Luce, who kept chickens as household pets.
You can definitely get away from it all in West Tisbury, Martha's Vineyard's traditional farming community. The porch at Alley's General Store, in the heart of the village, is the place to watch the day go by. Pick up a copy of the Broadside, for one thin dime, and find out what the locals are talking about the single sheet, front-and-back paper is a distinctive blend of news and speculation, and is put out by a West Tisbury couple who seem to know and hear everything.

Rose Abrahamson: Martha's Vineyard Artist
Rose Abrahamson says at my age, death and time are my friends. It could be a Samuel Beckett quote. But it's her's. It says a lot.
Rose lives in the time of a person struck by timelessness, the timelessness of an imagination in continuous motion. In such a life, it is possible, to paraphrase William Butler Yeats, to lose the dancer in the dance.
In Rose Abrahamson the labor of life, blossoming or dancing, is continuous. And, at 88 her interior life surfaces and recedes constantly. It blooms in conversation and recedes in memory. That surface and bloom is most available in her painting. Through the paintings she's done is a gateway, an aperture that lifts the spirit. It separates us from how's or why's of our perception and gets us to be in some half-symbolic state of being. With Rose this is a safe, fluid place of imagination, and there, for an instant is our own timelessness too. We become friends with it..
I don't know where my paintings come from. But the deeper I go the more people respond — more people relate — It's like my imagination is a collective imagination. Because I'm human... like everybody else.

-
This gorgeous, just-completed colonial at 38 Standish Road offers new construction in an estate-like setting in one of Wayland’s most sought-after neighborhoods.
Beautifully sited on a tranquil 3.8-acre lot abutting conservation land, the stunning new shingle style house shows the impeccable attention to detail that results when a highly regarded local architect, an interior designer with a longtime connection to the property, and an award-winning builder work together to bring every facet of the home to the highest level.
Offering 6,463 square feet of well-thought-out living space with five-bedrooms, four full baths and two half baths, the home’s expansive windows and multiple glass exterior doors flood the house with natural light and make the sublime woodland views a part of the interior design.
Timeless and elegant with high ceilings, hardwood floors and exquisite millwork in moldings and built-ins, the house has the clean lines, sophisticated style, and open floor plan desired by today’s home buyer.
Set back on a professionally landscaped lot with a circular driveway and a backdrop of mature trees, the house has charming curb appeal with a gambrel roof, elegant columns and a wraparound bluestone veranda that leads to a screened porch for outdoor entertaining.
Front to back views begin in the gracious entrance hall with sweeping sightlines through glass doors in the great room that open to a bluestone terrace.
Columns frame the doorway to the dining room which has a gas fireplace for cozy winter dinner parties and a stylish and well-equipped butler’s pantry that leads to the kitchen.
The spectacular heart-of-the-home, open-concept great room and kitchen offer superb space for entertaining inside and out. The focal point of this sun-drenched room is a beautifully crafted limestone fireplace that is flanked by glass doors to a magnificent screened porch which features a country fieldstone fireplace. Additional glass doors in the room provide access to a bluestone terrace for even more peaceful outdoor space.
Lovely double French doors open from the great room open to a tray-ceiling library with a wall of custom-built-ins. This room provides a quiet retreat that is also easily available to family.
The gourmet kitchen is a chef’s delight with high-end appliances by Sub-Zero, Wolf and Bosch, dazzling Carrera marble countertops and decorative backsplash, and a center island that includes breakfast bar seating. Family and friends will love the sunny dining area with double doors to the terrace for al fresco summer meals.
Beauty and function are highlighted in a dream mudroom that offers a walk-in pantry and access to the heated three-car garage as well as a staircase to the second floor.
The beautifully-crafted main staircase leads to a spacious landing and an entry to the master bedroom, a private sanctuary with glass doors to a balcony, and a spa-like bathroom.
Four additional spacious family bedrooms are on the second floor as well as a laundry room so nicely designed that it will make doing the wash fun.
This spacious home offers even more bonus space with two staircases to the lower level where there is a full bath, a playroom and a family room, as well as plenty of storage and future finish space for a wine cellar.
This special home offers the best in design and construction and an idyllic setting in Wayland, one of the most coveted towns in the Metro West suburbs.
Located just 18 miles west of Boston, Wayland is known for its public schools which are consistently rated among the top ten school systems in the state. Residents prize the semi-rural character of the town with its miles of scenic roads with stone walls, acres of protected conservation land that include trails for walking, horseback riding and cross-country skiing, and beautiful marshes and meadows along the Sudbury River. The town beach on Lake Cochituate, two public golf courses, playgrounds, an ice-skating pond, and athletic fields provide recreational opportunities for all ages. Close to shopping, entertainment, dining and commuter routes, Wayland is one of the area’s most desirable suburbs.

Video of The Lofts At Mill Number One | Manchester, New Hampshire apartment rentals
- This historic property incorporates the New Mills No. 1 and No. 2 constructed by the Amoskeag Manufacturing Company in 1840-1841 for their own use on the east side of the Merrimack River. In 1859-1860 the space between the previously detached Mill No. 1 and No. 2 was filled by the construction of Mill No. 6 which gave the company additional spindle, loom and card capacity for the manufacture of fancy goods. The three joined buildings with attached picker houses and a later (c.1890) finishing room addition on the west side continued to play an integral role in the company's manufacturing process until Amoskeag ceased operations in 1936. Beginning in 1941, the building was used for more than thirty years for shoe manufacturing.
Reborn as the Lofts at Mill Number One, the building has retained many original interior and exterior elements including large over-sized windows, heavy timber framing, and tongue and groove wood plank flooring. Combined with modern finishes of granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, designer carpet selections, in-unit washer and dryers, central air and controlled access, the Lofts at Mill Number One are the ultimate in upscale loft-style living.
Never leave home to work out again with the on-site fitness center and indoor basketball court. Enjoy the community room with billiard table and foosball or jump on the internet with the WiFi hotspots. Our state-of-the-art theatre room and outdoor patio make the Lofts at Mill Number One the perfect place to call home. And don't forget, your four legged friends are welcome too!
The Lofts at Mill Number One are located just a few blocks off Route 293, Granite Street Exit 5, and within a city block of downtown Manchester and all that it has to offer. The Lofts score high in walkability for its close proximity to restaurants, nightlife, grocery stores, Verizon Wireless Arena, Northeast Delta Dental/Fisher Cats Stadium, Arms Park, SEE Science Center/Millyard Museum, Palace Theatre, bakeries, coffee shops, salons and spas, public library, UNH Manchester, and businesses within the Manchester Millyard.
The Lofts at Mill Number One have everything that you are looking for in a community. It's time to make the move to your new home at the Lofts at Mill Number One.
