Description

A rare combination of waterfront location, sweeping Atlantic views, and approved plans, this exceptional estate offers immediate enjoyment today with remarkable potential for the future. Recently approved by the HDC, plans by Botticelli & Pohl for a reimagined main residence provide a compelling vision for the property's next chapter. Additional cottage and pool renderings further illustrate the possibilities for enhancing this extraordinary coastal setting. Privately positioned along one of Nantucket's most dramatic stretches of coastline, the property enjoys panoramic ocean vistas and an ever-changing seascape just moments from the charm and conveniences of ’Sconset Village. Combined with recently approved architectural plans, the property presents a rare opportunity to enjoy a substantial waterfront residence today while thoughtfully shaping its future. Originally built in 1920 and thoughtfully renovated over time, the seven-bedroom residence embraces the essence of island living, where abundant natural light, refreshing sea breezes, and a seamless connection to the outdoors define the experience. Expansive porches and balconies frame breathtaking water views from nearly every vantage point, while generous living spaces are designed for both relaxed coastal living and effortless entertaining.
