A magnificent luxury residence in one of Nantucket’s most picturesque, peaceful, and
valuable locations. Entirely custom-designed
and built, with meticulous attention to quality, craftsmanship,
and architectural detail. An elegant, distinctive and beautifully
positioned property.
Tucked onto a wide and well-protected knoll, the setting of this home is as compelling for the natural beauty of the land
as for sweeping, unobstructed views of Nantucket Sound.
The residence has been designed and finished to perfection, is
beautifully appointed, and has been meticulously
well-maintained since its original construction. Interior
spaces are warm, comfortable, quiet, and filled with natural light.
The 5-bedroom floor plan provides for an easy, graceful flow from level
to level and room to room; the layout of rooms and interior
spaces is designed to provide for both extensive entertaining and the comfortable accommodation
of guests, and the result is a quiet, comfortable, highly liveable
year-round home filled with sunlight.
It would be difficult to find a residence on Nantucket which has been more beautifully designed, carefully built, and impeccably well-maintained. This residence is in immaculate condition.
The residence includes an expansive, custom-designed gourmet kitchen with
vaulted ceiling and a two-room butlers’ pantry, a full complement
of gourmet-calibre stainless steel appliances, large granite workspaces,
and extensive custom cabinetry. The kitchen itself is a bright,
functional and inviting space, with a sweeping view across Nantucket
Sound -- even the butlers’ pantry offers a sweeping view
of the water.
Just off the kitchen is a large breakfast room, which also overlooks
the Sound and the rear lawns.
The Master Suite is a quiet, comfortable, expansive suite of rooms
-- fully separate from the main living areas of the residence.
The master bedroom is beautifully positioned to capture the views
of Nantucket Sound, and has been designed to be comfortable, open,
and filled with natural light. There is an entry foyer, vaulted
ceiling, fireplace, window seats, dressing room, and a sunny,
custom-designed spa-quality bath with full-body shower and jacuzzi.
The Master Bedroom opens onto a private, covered veranda with
a spectacular view of the water – a perfect place to relax
with coffee and the morning paper, or, to spend a quiet moment
on those star-filled summer nights.
In addition to the Master Suite, the residence includes a substantial,
very comfortable Guest Wing.
The Guest Wing includes an entry foyer, large master bedroom
with brick fireplace, full marble bath, a charming second bedroom
with full bath, wraparound covered porch, and a separate entrance.
Like the master suite, the guest wing includes a private veranda
off the master guest bedroom, with views across the beautifully
kept rear lawns.
The main portion of the residence provides two additional bedrooms
for guests, each with its own beautifully designed full bath ensuite.
The residence includes several expansive outdoor decks and terraces,
and two magnificent covered wraparound porches on the lower level,
each with a southern exposure and spectacular views.
The property includes approximately 2 acres of land, and is well
protected with a deep natural boundary of pine trees to the east,
a grassy meadow to the south which is part of the property, and,
of course, Nantucket Sound to the north.
Grounds have been professionally landscaped, and are beautifully
kept. Lawn areas are level to very gently sloped, and are irrigated
with a custom-designed 14-zone computer controlled underground
sprinkler system. Planting beds are filled with neatly-trimmed
shrubbery and flowers. In the summer, clay pots are placed on
the wraparound porches, and these overflow with masses of beautiful,
brightly colored flowers.
Originally intended to be used most often during summers on Nantucket,
the residence has also been used frequently during the Fall, Winter,
and Spring, and is well-suited for use as a quiet, comfortable
primary residence. It is, in fact, a perfect place to experience
the natural beauty, tranquility, privacy, and the genteel lifestyle
which draw so many to the island of Nantucket.
This offering represents a rare opportunity to acquire one of
Nantucket’s most elegant, distinctive, and beautifully positioned
properties.
