Sold: 1890s Edgartown Home, $2.9 Million
Four bedrooms, three and a half bedrooms and 120 or so years of history changed hands last week on South Water Street, for more than a million less than the asking price.
A classic Edgartown home from the 19th century changed hands April 26, according to Dukes County land records.
101 South Water Street was sold for $2.9 million. According to Zillow, that's down from its asking price of $3.975 million, after nearly three and a half years on the market.
The home, built in the 1890s, was listed with four bedrooms and three and a half bedrooms in 2,550 square feet of living space on a lot just shy of 52,000 square feet.

The property transfer was from the Stanley Washburn Jr. Family Partnership to Michael and Bernardine Caruso of the Claudio Trust, which gives its address as that of an Edgartown law firm, land records state.
The home is located near the intersection with High Street and not far from Dunham Road, where the Vineyard's two most expensive home sales of 2012 took place, one for $12,600,000 and the other for $12,500,000.
