About this property

Peaceful In-Town Retreat


***If you have any questions, please click 'Contact Host' to inquire further***

Our modern-coastal style home is clean and bright and in beautiful condition. This is the perfect house for multi-generational reunions, a getaway with friends, or for two families to share. It is both senior-friendly (downstairs master & walk-in shower) and kid-friendly (with cribs, bunkbeds and stocked with games and toys). Bike to the beach and walk to town for dinner - it doesn't get more convenient than that! There is also off-street parking with two spaces if you decide to bring or rent a car.

Walk into a bright open living room that flows into a custom kitchen with Wolf range, a dining area that seats 8, and an island with 3 bar stools. Everything is fresh and clean with high ceilings, Nantucket breezes, and lots of natural light.

There are 2 king-bed master suites with en suite bathrooms (one upstairs and one downstairs). Both are large and spacious - the master downstairs has very high ceilings, a walk-in closet, walk-in shower and shiplap throughout. The master upstairs is light-filled with beautiful sunset views. There is also a bunk room that sleeps 4 (bunk with trundle and a twin sized bed), and another bright and sunny room with a king bed. All beds have new memory foam mattresses and crisp Italian linens. There are plenty of new white towels in each bathroom as well as plenty of beach towels.

The house has a huge unfinished basement with ping pong table and basketball game as well as a separate TV room/Library on the first floor. An open living room with fireplace has plenty of room for a group to gather and relax.

Outside, you will find magnificent gardens and a peaceful place to enjoy the outdoor air, including an outdoor shower. Gather at the teak table for dinners to watch the sunset and late-night stars and meteor showers.

Great location! Walk directly up Main Street from town and Main Street becomes New Lane - a beautiful 10-minute walk. There are many ways to walk into town, each taking you through charming, historic neighborhoods. It's just over a mile to Stop&Shop and a half-mile walk to Something Natural.

We have 8 beach chairs, an umbrella, boogie boards, sand toys, and a cooler/beach bag. We also have plenty of games and toys for adults & children of all ages.

Please note, this house is not suitable large groups of adults and is not a "party house" for festival weekends - 8 max mature/responsible adults only. Thank you!

About the host

Host profile image
We had been visiting Nantucket for years and always dreamed of having a home in this magical place that we could share with family and friends throughout the year. We are so blessed to have been able to realize our dream and thank our lucky stars every day!

Why they chose this property

Convenience AND peace are hard to come by. Too close to town you have a lot of traffic and noise, too far from town and it's very inconvenient to get into town for dinner or shopping. We are a "reverse commute" - you can walk into town and drive or bike to beach and avoid traffic and really maximize your time rather than sitting in traffic or waiting for a taxi. We also love that a shuttle stop is right at the end of the street which takes you right to Madaket Millie's for dinner and sunset.

What makes this property unique

Having rented in Nantucket ourselves for years, we have a good understanding of how to properly stock a house. Renters have told us that the kitchen lacks nothing - we have truly tried to think of everything down to the smallest detail to make your vacation as enjoyable as possible. To us, what's important is having a clean, bright space, crisp, white, luxurious sheets and towels, and the ability to take advantage of Nantucket breezes and outdoor space. And what's better than having the ability to walk to town yet still feel like you're "at the beach". The gardens also set this house apart - a lot of thought and detail have gone into our professionally landscaped yard, providing a lush and warm environment and beautiful night-lighting.
