54 Fair Street • Town

$4,895,000

5 bd · 5.5 ba

Set along one of Nantucket Town's most charming and historic streets, 54 Fair is a beautifully renovated circa-1800 residence that pairs more than two centuries of island character with modern comfort. Just moments from Main Street, this five bedroom, five and a half bathroom home retains notable historic details, including original pine floors, chair rails and doors. The inviting floor plan offers beautifully appointed living, dining and kitchen spaces, a first-floor en suite bedroom, three additional en suite bedrooms on the second floor, and a spacious private primary suite occupying the third. Outside, a secluded brick patio, outdoor shower and off-street parking provide exceptional amenities for an in-Town property. Thoughtfully updated while preserving its historic character, this home offers a rare opportunity to own an authentic piece of old Nantucket just a short distance from the shops, restaurants and cobblestones of Main Street. Offered fully furnished and turnkey, this home presents an opportunity for immediate enjoyment, complemented by a strong rental history that adds to its appeal as both a Nantucket retreat and investment property.
