55 North Water Street is known as “Chappy House“—built in the 1890s and part of the iconic Kelley House Hotel, which was formerly a tavern for whalers and sea captains, and has been open to Martha’s Vineyard travelers since 1742. It’s located in Edgartown Village’s historic district, and it’s newly-listed as an excellent investment opportunity for those looking to be near the water next summer.

“The property is a renovation opportunity with a prime, water view location,” says listing agent Wendy Harman.

Chappy House is a classic Shingle Style home with views of Edgartown Harbor. Six bedrooms, a walk-out basement, spacious decks, and four floors of living space create endless opportunities for anyone reimagining the space.

Proposed plans for the site have been developed by architect Patrick Ahearn. They include off-street parking for two cars, and an in-ground pool with terrace.
