About this House

Tucked into the storybook charm of Sconset village, this beautifully renovated two-bedroom cottage captures the essence of classic Nantucket living with a fresh, thoughtful touch. Inside, vaulted ceilings and reclaimed wood floors create a warm, airy atmosphere, while crisp white finishes and abundant natural light give the home a bright, welcoming feel. The newly designed kitchen serves as the heart of the home, featuring a generous island with a farmhouse sink, white quartz countertops, and seating for four. A charming sunroom just off the kitchen offers a cozy nook for morning coffee, quiet work, or a good book. The first floor includes one bedroom—alongside a fully renovated bathroom. Upstairs, the private primary bedroom provides a peaceful retreat. Outdoor living is just as delightful, with a backyard designed for relaxation, complete with an outdoor shower, and a dining area ideal for al fresco evenings. A grassy front yard and off-street parking add ease and comfort. Just moments from the best of Sconset; this enchanting cottage is within a 5-minute stroll of Sconset Beach, the Bluff Walk, Sconset Playground, and the village center with beloved Sconset Market, an ice cream counter, local book shop and more. This cottage beautifully pairs timeless coastal charm with a coveted location in one of Nantucket’s most picturesque and sought-after enclaves.

Actually 497% above the national average.. the cost increases every day and is displacing locals on a regular basis.. it’s a huge problem that currently does not have a practical solution.."
