3 bd · 4 ba

Stunning and meticulously maintained, the "Nutcracker House" is an exquisite 19th-century antique home ideally situated just steps away from Main Street and lies in the very heart of Town. This remarkable residence features three spacious bedrooms, three full bathrooms, two additional half baths, and four off-street parking spots. The house has been fully restored from the ground up, with an unwavering commitment to preserving its historic charm while incorporating modern details. There is custom cabinetry and high-end finishes throughout. Six fireplaces add both warmth and a touch of elegance, creating cozy focal points in various living spaces. In addition to the impressive interior, there is an outside office structure, providing a workspace that maintains a sense of separation from the main living areas. Featured two years ago on the Nantucket Garden Club's Tour, the home's landscaping and gardens are exquisite. There is an expansive deck and open air kitchen perfect for entertaining, and a separate fire pit seating area with a tranquil water feature providing an intimate space for relaxation or socializing. The privacy of mature trees create a serene atmosphere. This unique historic home stands out as a true gem in the heart of Town, ready to welcome its next stewards.
