A quintessential rose-covered cottage just three blocks from the heart of Downtown, a half block to the beach, and one block to the Town Pier. This charming retreat blends modern, colorful interiors with touches of the island’s maritime heritage, creating a romantic and welcoming escape. The open living, kitchen, and dining area features curated furnishings, unique décor, and a cozy, inviting feel.

Additional features include private off-street parking, a renovated bath with tub and shower, an air purifier, and easy storage for bikes and beach gear. The cottage is also just two blocks from the Town transportation center and offers close proximity to Main Street, restaurants, cafés, shops, museums, theaters, the docks, harbor, beaches, Hy-Line Ferry, Steamship ferry terminals, and Nantucket’s dinghy dock, offering convenient access to boating and downtown amenities. The property is serviced by Town water and sewer and offers potential for expansion.
