This custom home is a shingle style design, with post & beam construction featuring a spacious, open floor plan and extensive windows bringing in light and fresh ocean breezes. A central hallway adds light to the interior of the first floor from a cupola high above. A massive granite fireplace centers the living room and a gourmet kitchen featuring gas range, Sub Zero refrigerator, expansive granite center Island; temperature controlled wine storage and two dishwashers. A wrap-around porch and spacious patio provides for outside living. Ocean views abound from second floor decks.
Property is situated on a cul-de-sac, private road with ample lawns for kids to play safely. Nantucket has an extensive network of paved bike/walking trails to safely travel all over the Island. A seasonal bus service will also take you to any part of the Island. World class restaurants, antique stores, deep sea fishing and long days at one of the numerous beaches are just a few things to do, using this home as a base.
The center of the village of Siasconset is a short walk and features dinning; post office; general store and many buildings dating to the 18th century. Summers are generally warm with gentle ocean breezes and walking is a pleasure with reduced speed limits in the village.

Sconset Spring Getaway
Sconset Spring Getaway

We had the opportunity to take an early spring break in Sconset. Not the most ideal time weather wize, but the warmth and ambience of the house (Eastport) overcame the spring showers of Sconset. The daffodils around the house didn't seem to mind the weather and the a warm fire in an absolutely magnificent fireplace was a wonderful gathering point at the end of the day. The kitchen was obviously designed and outfitted by someone who loves to cook and was big enough for all of us (6 adults) to gather in to create great meals when we dinned at the house. We did have some bright sunny days and it was a pleasant walk to the village, Cod Fish Park and along the Sconset bluff. Eastport was a perfect getaway and the house was all it was advertised to be. We hope to make this a tradition - beat the crowds of summer.Recommended for: Sightseeing, families with young children, adventure seekers, romantic getaway, age 55+, families with teenagers.

We have had the opportunity to stay at this location on a couple of occasions and were completely charmed by its architecture, the openness of the rooms and the magnificent kitchen, where most of our entertaining has been done. This property provides exceptional privacy, solitude and the opportunity to completely unwind. Leaving is the most difficult part of renting this property! My wife and I recommend this location to anyone who wants to get away - in style.Recommended for: Sightseeing, families with young children, pet owners, romantic getaway, age 55+, families with teenagers.

A warm, large, and charming house, which speaks of Nantucket with grace and grandeur. Plenty of room for everyone, with private places, and a lookout tower! From the fist approach, the house is characteristically New England and especially, Nantucket. Very warm furnishing and well equipped. Really wasn't anything we needed that wasn't in the house already. Location is great on a quiet area with easy ride to town, and great views on the way. Fabulous kitchen, built for a real chef and a living room with spectacular stone fireplace. Felt at home from the first view of from the driveway, and it only got better.Recommended for: Sightseeing, girls getaway, families with young children, adventure seekers, romantic getaway, age 55+, families with teenagers.

Owner info
Year Purchased: 1994
About the owner: Although I call Siasconset home, I travel extensively (particularly in the summer and fall) in connection with my work as an ocean explorer. As a founding director of the Aurora Trust for Ocean exploration and education I spend much of my time searching the sea floor for ancient ship wrecks. My work involves extensive travel and time at sea during our 6 month working season. Much of this travel is in the Mediterranean sea and the countries that border it. Nantucket keeps me connected with the ocean while at home and is a great location to have as a home base.
Why the Owner Chose Siasconset:
This property was not purchased as a vacation rental. The property is available, generally during the summer and early fall as I am away on business travel during this period.
The Unique Benefits at this House:
I particularly enjoy the privacy of this location. It is near enough to walk or bike to the village; beach or even into town, but not in a highly traveled location. I also love the sound and smell of the nearby ocean.
