Enjoy a stylish experience at this centrally located home, just five minutes from downtown Nantucket, the cobblestoned Main Street with award-winning restaurants, one-of-a-kind clothing stores, shops, and art studios. Plus, there is access to the harbor, public boat docks, swimming spots, and sea air. Nantucket air and light are just magical.
This property is on the fashionable one-way street heading into town named Union Street. The property has three separate rental opportunities, which we called The Front House, The Middle House, and The Barn. The Front House faces Union Street; the Middle is behind and is separated by what I call a 'Hallway of Doors.' The Front and Middle houses have separate rooflines and entrances. They are independent listings unless you want to join them. The barn is a stand-alone building—reach out to rent it in one, two, or all three houses.
The Front house has Nantucket Grey cardboard, white corner boards with a black door, and roses climbing both sides of the handmade cedar trellis. The front and side gardens are full of hydrangeas, roses, and other surprises that pop up throughout the growing season. The lock box is on the backside of the house - Walk down either side of the house to the grassed area with the four Adirondack chairs, picnic table, and grill. The landing with two steps is tucked between both houses, with the lockbox on the left side. The first door is unlocked and opens to the 'hallway of doors.' Your kitchen door is to the right and is lockable. You can also drive and park down the shelled driveway and enter this way. It is just a tight corner so the front door will be smoother with big suitcases.
The grassed area has four Adirondack chairs, a grill, and a small picnic table for both the Middle and Front Houses. I have also hung four beach chairs and umbrellas on the Front House for your use. The backpack cooler can be found in the house for you. The shelled driveway brings you to the parking space you will use; it faces the fence. The barn is on the left side of the driveway. It is a stand-alone House. ID# 3421106
The Hallway of Doors is valuable as it holds two closets for cleaning supplies, umbrellas, grocery bags, and other useful things; it also provides space between the houses. Your kitchen door is on the far right, and the Middle House kitchen door is on the far left.
The Front House has large windows with great light. The steep center staircase, which has a railing, separates the two living rooms. Each has seating arrangements for chatting, reading, and game-playing, and one has a pull-out sofa bed.
There is a queen bedroom on the back side of the house. It is a small but impressive bedroom with a new mattress, headboard, and sitting chair. The art is one of a kind. The bathroom outside this room has a glassed-in stone shower, vanity, and toilet. Outside of the bathroom is a stackable washer and dryer. Extra towels and linens, the iron and board, manuals, and supplies are stored in the closet across from this hallway.
The full kitchen has a high-top table with stools around it. The equipment is new, with the electric stove having a built-in air fryer. The silver, extra-large sink faces three windows looking over the shelled driveway. We do not have a microwave. For coffee, we have an electric kettle and a French press. The white dishes and glasses live on open wooden shelves. In the new cabinets below are the cooking equipment and room for groceries. A white marble table with four straight-back chairs separates the kitchen from the living room with a television.
The steep center staircase has one railing and a reminder to 'DUCK' at the top. Once in the rooms, the two bedrooms at the top of the stairs are large. One has a queen bedroom with a dresser, and the second has two new twin x-long beds and a nice closet. Each bedroom has blackout shades, extra linens, air conditioning, and heat with a unique feel.
Art, antiques and the sea air maintain New England's charm. Pets cannot enjoy this space, so we'd like to ask you to leave them at home. We can not host pets—even the sweetest, most well-behaved.
