About This Home
Two Historic Oak Bluffs Cottages - Prime Location a?? Deeded Separately Perched atop a gentle hill, surrounded by lush, established gardens in one of the islanda??s most storied neighborhoods, these two charming 1909 twin cottages offer a rare opportunity to own a piece of local historya??just a short distance to the harbor, downtown, and the beloved Winstona??s takeout. Built at a time when automobiles were rare, these homes were sited with ease of access in mind. Though they have no driveways, convenient on-street parking is always availablea??local residents often find it easier to stroll, or bike, into town than drive. Both homes are separately deeded, giving you the flexibility to own them jointly or individually. They are fully furnished and move-in ready, with a long history of use as rentals and community housing. Whether you're looking for a full-time residence, income-generating property, or a flexible retreat for extended family or friends, these cottages provide a unique and practical setupa??ideal for dual living or multi-generational use. Set against a backdrop of cool breezes and peaceful surroundings, these modest yet solidly built mirror image cottages feature warm, weatherproof interiors, ground-level entries, and ensuite bathrooms. While they may not compare in size to modern builds, their simplicity is part of their charma??and their history is unmatched. The Hughes family, who once lived here, famously hand-dug full basements in both homes in the late 1920sa??a remarkable feat in a neighborhood where most homes sit on crawl-spaces. This added space offers valuable storage, office, or expansion options rarely found in similar homes of the era. With a strong local school system, a welcoming neighborhood, and the charm of yesteryear combined with present-day comfort, these homes are an ideal place to put down roots, invest in community, or create a home-away-from-home. Keep them as they are, or add your own touches.
