The house was winterized by the seller, who also added air-conditioning, making it viable for year-round living. It is about a half-mile from Oaks Bluff Town Beach and a five-minute drive from the ferry terminal, where boats regularly depart for Hyannis, Woods Hole and Nantucket. Martha’s Vineyard Airport is 15 minutes away.

Indoors: This classic Carpenter Gothic-style house is painted a bright pink, with darker pink and white paint accenting the gingerbread trim surrounding the windows and along the roof and the front porch.
Arched double doors open from the porch directly into the living room, which has white-painted wood ceilings and walls, wide-plank wood floors, large windows and a ceiling fan. Through a wide doorway adorned with white-painted trim is a dining area with more porch-facing doors. (The home’s furnishings, including the dining table and chairs, are included in the sale.) The kitchen, at the back of the house, has a white-painted wood ceiling and open shelving, white cabinetry and white appliances, including a washing machine.
Stairs behind the dining area lead up to the two bedrooms on the second floor. The larger has wood floors painted blue and arched glass doors that open to a balcony. The other one, which currently holds a twin bed, has a stained-glass window with a floral motif and pink trim. They share a full bathroom, also on this level.
Outdoor space: In addition to the covered porch that wraps around the side of the house, the property includes a brick patio with space for entertaining, accessible from the house and the street, through a wooden gate framed with vines. Parking is available to lease in a nearby lot.
Taxes: $3.095 (estimated) and a $126 monthly homeowner association fee
