Fishers Landing is the residential pocket off Madaket Road near Long Pond — a west-side neighborhood of practical homes on workable lots, with the Madaket bike path at its edge and the west end’s beaches and sunsets a short ride down the road. In LINK’s data it’s its own small area, quietly serving buyers who want the west side without Madaket’s beachfront pricing.

Long Pond gives the area its nature — herons, kayaks, fishing — and the neighborhood keeps a low-key, lived-in feel that suits year-round households and unfussy summer owners alike.

"Fishers Landing buyers figure out the west-side secret: the same sunsets run all the way up the road." — Sean Kalman

What Fishers Landing really means

The area’s appeal is positional: Madaket’s beaches and famous sunsets ten minutes one way, town ten minutes the other, and the bike path connecting both without a car. Homes are practically scaled and honestly priced — the west side’s value tier, with Long Pond’s green corridor as the neighborhood amenity.

The stock mixes older capes and ranches with newer builds and renovations. Turnover is modest; the area trades as the sensible alternative for buyers priced past the west end’s coastal rows but committed to the sunset side of the island.

What you're actually buying at Fishers Landing

A practical stock in two forms.

The established homes

Capes and family houses from past decades on workable lots — the value core, rewarding renovators and priced for the west side’s quieter tier.

The newer and renovated

Updated and newer homes deliver turnkey west-side living below Madaket’s numbers — the tier that trades fastest when it surfaces.

The market here

Fishers Landing trades modestly and sensibly — a small feed presence in most seasons, steady demand from value-minded west-side buyers, and pricing that tracks below the coastal rows it neighbors. Improvable homes here carry the classic close-to-the-good-stuff upside.

The live listings above show today’s picture. Comp work should read the west corridor broadly — this area, Madaket’s inland streets, and the Hummock Pond edge share buyers and price logic.

Fishers Landing — the questions I get

Where is Fishers Landing?

Off Madaket Road near Long Pond, on the island’s west side — about ten minutes from town in one direction and Madaket’s beaches and sunsets in the other. The Madaket bike path runs at the neighborhood’s edge, connecting both without a car, and in LINK’s data it’s its own small area.

What’s Long Pond like?

A long freshwater pond with herons, fishing, and kayak water — the area’s green corridor and its quiet centerpiece. It gives the neighborhood its nature and its low-key, lived-in feel; note that parcels near the pond carry buffer rules worth verifying before any expansion plans.

What does it cost?

The west side’s value tier — priced below Madaket’s coastal rows, with the live listings above showing current numbers when present. Turnover is modest, and comp work should read the west corridor broadly: this area, Madaket’s inland streets, and the Hummock Pond edge share buyers and price logic.

Is it good for rentals?

Steadily — west-side summer demand reaches here at friendlier rates, and year-round rentals perform as they do across the island’s practical neighborhoods. Direct bike-path connection is a daily amenity and a genuine rental plus, worth confirming for the specific street before you count on it.

Why choose it over Madaket?

Arithmetic: the same sunsets and beaches ten minutes away, at a meaningful discount. The stock mixes older capes and ranches with newer builds and renovations, so buyers who’d rather fund a renovation than a view premium land here — the sensible alternative for anyone priced past the west end’s coastal rows.
