Real Estate Confidential is a biweekly chit-chat about new listings, sales, or other insider information on the Martha’s Vineyard Real Estate market, presented by Fred Roven, owner/broker of Martha’s Vineyard Buyer Agents. It appears every other Friday in The Minute.
As a full- or part-time resident of Katama, you’ll enjoy all the things that make Martha’s Vineyard so special. Katama is a beach community in Edgartown with Katama Bay separating Katama from Chappaquiddick Island on the east, while the Atlantic Ocean borders the residential area’s south side. Edgartown Great Pond is located on Katama’s western border.
When you approach Katama from Edgartown, you will come to a literal fork in the road. You can take Katama Road to the left or you can go right on Herring Creek Road. No matter which direction you choose, you’ll discover stunning views and wondrous Katama houses for sale that are just waiting for you to settle into the area.
Whereas the homes in Edgartown are renowned for celebrating the prosperity of the whaling era from years ago, Katama properties are more diverse when it comes to architectural style. Whether you want a single-family ranch or a large estate with a guest house for your in-laws, Katama has a home that will suit your needs, wants, and desires.
