This home is so stereotypically Martha’s Vineyard you can practically smell the salt water. The new shingled home is in the Cow Bay area of Edgartown the main town on the small island off the coast of Cape Cod. You don’t get ocean views with this one but you get water views of Sengekontacket Pond. The home also has access to private association beaches of Cow Bay on the eastern shore of Martha’s Vineyard. The five-bedroom home is either very staged or decorated by someone with a keen love of the preppy. Check out the living room complete with model sailboat and the quilt with the nautical flags. There are also two master suites with private bathrooms. The home is on a little over two acres and has a heated inground pool. Pools surrounded by grass don’t exactly light my fire but this is probably just a place to rinse off since you’ve got the ocean so nearby. It is listed at $6.5 million.

Part of the pleasure of doing the estate-of-the-day post everyday is searching through the dreck to find truly exceptional homes. This one in Telluride wins me over with its open, light-filled spaces and the use of simple shed and gable structures to create three different spaces which represent a mill, cabin and a bunkhouse and form a master suite, main home, and a garage with a caretaker’s unit above. There’s also an older log cabin which has been moved to the almost five-acre property and set amidst the woods for a private guest experience. The entrance to the home has a timber and steel trestle bridge. There are six bedrooms total and just one fireplace but what a fireplace it is, so massive you could practically curl up inside it. This home is listed at $8.995 million.

Wow, this home on 90 acres is tucked into a small town located about an hour from Pittsburgh. It’s really more of a compound than a home. The main home is over 10,000 square feet and has six bedrooms. It is dominated by a huge circular entry that includes a glass elevator which connects o a tower of rooms in the round including a home theater, wine tasting cellar and the showcase, a 360 degree rotating observation view study with a box beam ceiling and an outdoor deck. Other features include a huge three-story pool room with a cascading fountain and both a lap pool and a wading pool which are ringed by redwood balconies. The lodge has a stone fireplace so big it needs two animal heads mounted on it and its own indoor barbecue. This huge home is listed at $5 million.
