About this property

Walk to Town from Beautiful Cottage w/ Guest House & A/C 3bed/3bath!

Welcome to our family's Nantucket Cottage and adjacent Guest House in Nantucket's flag-spangled Historic District. The property is a short walk to town, the harbor, and Children's Beach.
No car needed! But if you would like to bring your car, we have parking for one car.
The property contains both a main house and a separate guest house, making it a perfect get-away for couples traveling together or for families traveling with friends, grandparents or a nanny.

The main house features an open floor plan with cathedral ceilings, large beams and a 1940s red-brick-fireplace. Surrounded by large windows, the dining room is bright and airy -- a perfect spot to have breakfast and make plans for a day of sightseeing, sailing, and cycling around the island.

We have installed beautiful white custom Bali 2" Cordless Pleated Shades with Light Diffusing Privacy Liners on ALL windows in the main house.

The kitchen has custom cabinets, Corian countertops, stainless steel appliances, and an eat-in breakfast bar. Together with the 5-Burner grill on the patio, the kitchen provides you with everything you need to cook and serve the perfect backyard family BBQ. The dining table seats 6. The living room boasts a comfortable sofa and a 48" SMART TV. You will also find a front-load washer and dryer.

The master bedroom has a Queen bed with en suite bathroom and 32" SMART TV; the second bedroom has a QUEEN bed with built-in 6 drawer dresser. All told, the main house sleeps four.

The Guest House is immediately adjacent to the main house. It sleeps two and has been completely refurbished. It has a QUEEN bed, a 40" SMART TV, a private bathroom and a kitchenette. Custom Bali 2" pleated shades on all windows. A small bluestone patio is located directly behind the guest house .

The large backyard patio is surrounded by tall hedges and gorgeous shade trees. Recently, we added a new 5-Burner BBQ, a new patio dining table with seating for 6, and a new seating area.

Nantucket is beautiful in the summer and the days are warm. To keep you cool, we've installed a Mini-Split Air Conditioning system in both the main house and guest house.

The entire property is well-appointed with crisp white cotton sheets, white fluffy bath towels, kitchen ware, utensils, glasses, dishes, and everything else you would need to feel at home on the island. All sheets and towels are professionally cleaned. Our property manager lives just a mile away, so if you need anything, he can be there in a matter of minutes. This house is great for families, couples, artists, writers, boaters, beach-lovers, and exhausted city-dwellers looking to relax.

Come join us for a long weekend and stay as long as you like.

Amazing stay!

Had a great experience at this Nantucket VRBO. It was clean, well-stocked and looked just like the pictures. An easy 15 minute or so walk to the town center. Would stay again!

Fabulous return to one of our favorite homes

We had an amazing return stay to one of our favorite homes we have stayed in on the island. Very convenient walk to town and the various bike paths. The layout of the home with the separate cottage makes it very comfortable for everyone. The property is spotless and somehow avoids that "musty" feeling so many island properties have.

Destination Wedding

Great for us as we came and went to all the wedding events while our adult daughter and our grandkids enjoyed the house, the backyard and the ( easy peasy) walks into town. How nice to have a bathroom for every bedroom— not often available. The separate ( but arm’s distance away) cottage allowed the kids to do their own thing while the adults had quiet space to read and relax.

Perfect for a Girls Getaway!!

Absolutely loved our stay at this adorable Nantucket gem! The house was perfect for our girls' trip — cozy, charming, and just a short walk to town, which made everything so easy and fun. We spent our days exploring and coming back to a super clean and welcoming space that felt like home. The little details in the decor were just too cute, and the location couldn’t have been better. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a perfect blend of relaxation and convenience on this beautiful island! Will definitely be back!

Perfect

We had a great stay at this property. We were a bit worried as it’s on a busy street but was not bothered by it at all. We were able to walk down to Main Street and bike to many beaches. The inside was beautiful. Very clean and had everything we could need. The welcome gift was extremely thoughtful. We would definetily recommend this property.

Why they chose this property

My family has owned this property since the early 1960s. It was the pride and joy of my late uncle who loved this island and all the people on it. He spent every summer here, surrounded by friends and family. The house has been lovingly restored with him in mind.
