Spar Point Farm on Block Island is a 6-acre working family farm including a vineyard, orchard, apiary, gardens, and greenhouse. It offers a winning combination of being well off the main road for privacy and quiet, but less than 10 minutes by car from the main port town and 5 minutes from the airport. The farm is flanked by 230 acres of conservation land to the west and enjoys sweeping views of the Atlantic Ocean, striking sunsets, and wondrous stargazing.
The space
The Vineyard Studio overlooks a unique trellised vineyard and is styled as a tiny home with an early-American "saltbox" architecture.
A large room includes high cathedral ceilings traversed by long wooden beams. A queen bed is accompanied by a large antique armoire, a dining table, a China closet and a kitchenette area including a refrigerator, microwave, toaster oven, coffee maker and tea kettle. A separate full bathroom off of the main room includes a walk-in shower.
Outside along the rear of the Studio, looking across to the vineyard and the farm's picturesque early-American gambrel barn, there is a grill, outdoor sink, Adirondack chairs and a small table for intimate dinners and a glass of wine watching the sunset behind the vineyard. A picnic table on a hilltop above the vineyard offers a majestic view of the Atlantic Ocean and the surrounding pastures.
