This majestic Greek Revival is one of the earliest on historic William Street. Built in 1836 by the Downs brothers, it's original use was an inn which catered to whaling and shipping. The Berkshire House stayed in business until 1865 when it became the private home of Dr. William Leach, and has remained a private home since. The first and second floors of this gracious antique offer a traditional floor plan with spacious rooms, original pine plank flooring and moldings. The unfinished third floor has incredible potential - with peek water views and a large foot print, it could be a fantastic media or rec. room. Overlooking the landscaped back yard is a large porch perfect for morning coffee and cool summer dining. Just a one-block stroll to Main Street Vineyard Haven, this unique home should not be missed!
