10 bd · 8 ba
Commanding one of the most coveted harborfront locations on Nantucket, this extraordinary 1.25-acre estate offers truly unparalleled harborfront views and an unmatched coastal living experience. With sweeping, panoramic vistas stretching from Town across the harbor to Brant Point and Coatue, the property delivers a front-row seat to the island’s most iconic scenery. Enjoy sunsets over the water, sailboats gliding through the harbor, and fireworks lighting up the sky throughout the season. At the heart of the estate is a seven bedroom, six and a half bath main residence. It is slightly elevated allowing for breathtaking views from every floor. The main house is complemented by a spacious two-car garage with guest accommodations above. Additionally, a charming boat house sits on the water’s edge. Offering approximately 175 feet of direct waterfront and a gently sloping drive leading to a private sandy beach, this rare offering blends luxury, comfort, and natural beauty in a way few properties can. This estate could never be duplicated. There is a boathouse bordering the water that is a pre-existing, nonconforming use. It is essentially built right on the coastal bank, which today would require a 75-foot setback. The existing house is approximately 35 feet high, allowing for a full third floor—seven feet higher than what the HDC currently permits. These nonconformities have been grandfathered in and will never be permitted again. This is truly an incredibly rare opportunity and arguably the best location on Nantucket.
