About This Home

27 Clamshell Alley

Historic home with deep water dock! If you're dreaming of owning an iconic village home with a private deep water dock, 'Snippershins' is it! Located at the end of Clam Shell Alley, a quiet single lane village street dotted with classic architecture and wharfs showcasing the island's working waterfront, this rare prime harbor location offers all the amenities one expects--a deepwater dock, unobstructed ocean views, and a classic 1870s home with historic outbuildings. The property has been lovingly cared for by the same family for 40 years and is in turn-key condition. Recent improvements include new metal roofing, hot water furnace, on-demand hot water system, thermopane windows, updated electric, and more. The home has a flexible floor plan with three stories of living space, and every window has a water view. The first floor includes a kitchen with wood cookstove, dining room, library space, full bath, and a wonderful south-facing living room overlooking the harbor, wharfs and surrounding classic architecture. The second level has three bedrooms and a recently renovated full bath. The third floor has two bonus rooms previously used as an office/library/exercise space. Imagine this as your primary bedroom! Outside is a spacious covered porch, impressive 58' dock and float system, two well maintained antique outbuildings, and a shingled two-car garage with a large heated studio space above. The garage has a workbench and the studio is ideal for an artist/writer/musician or yogi. The property has high speed internet and enjoys a prime location near village restaurants/shops, two land preserves, public library, and more. (The house per FEMA maps is not located in the flood zone.) There are very few residences with waterfront on Carver's Harbor and even fewer with a deepwater dock. Don't miss this very special opportunity to live in the village and own an historic home with a dock!
