3 bedroom 2 1/2 bath house 1 1/2 Blocks From Main Street, one block from harbor.
You will enjoy this 1750 house, only one and a half blocks away from the cobblestones of lower Main Street. Very cozy for a small family! The house is well equipped with appliances, washer/dryer, central air, large flat screen TV, outdoor shower with two shower heads out back. We just finished renovating! It's got one parking space (though we feel it's not necessary to bring a car). The address is 17 Washington St. The house is set between the Handlebar Café (coffee shop with great cinnamon muffins ) and the Nantucket Artist's Association. All you could hope for with shops, restaurants, grocery stores, coffee shops and NRTA bus station/stops all a very short and lovely walk (1 minute).
Live within a very short walk to Nantucket town and harbor! We have just installed a new kitchen counter with farmhouse sink and new floors this past Fall. Note, the three fireplaces look great with candles in them… But are not operational for fires. Most of the floors are antique wide board pine. Lastly, we urge our guests purchase outside travel insurance that covers trip cancellations due to dangerous travel conditions from bad weather since we are on an island subject to wind and high seas. John Hancock, Axa Assistance and IMG offer such policies.

Oh perfect location quick walk to the lemon press lots of nearby shops easy to carry back all the purchases quick and reload again ! Would highly recommend it if we went back tomorrow, we would say at the same place !
Awesome week at this cute antique home with lots of character. Location is incredible, just a block to Main St, the ferry, and tons of restaurants and shops. The host extremely nice and responsive to questions. Home is very clean with all the amenities you will need. We’ll definitely be back for another stay!
We had family visiting from Australia and wanted to show them why we loved Nantucket - this property was the perfect base to do so.Well located and appointed cottage with plenty of space to relax. The property is well appointed for all you need during your stay.The hosts Sam and Kerstin had good communication and check in (and departure) was very straight forward. Would definitely recommend!!

Please be our guest any time, Ruth. We will keep trying our best to earn that fifth star next time!
This house has everything you need to enjoy a beautiful stay on the island. It is close to everything and super well taken care of. Can’t wait to meet family in Nantucket again soon and we will definitely stay here again.
My family stayed this past weekend and had a fantastic time. The home is so unique and in a great location in town. The restaurant/cafe suggestions were perfect and easy to get to being right in the heart of town. The Wave transportation bus station was right across the street making it easy to get all around the island for free!! We can’t wait to come back!
You truly cannot get a better location. It is right downtown and within walking distance to just about everything you need. We stayed with our family including two kids and had the easiest time getting to and from activities. One suggestion- if you are coming with little kid who are staying in the bunk bed room I would suggest reserving a baby gate for the back staircase as it is right outside of their room- definitely helped ease my mind about late night bathroom trips. Sam and Kerstin were also the best hosts- super communicative and sweet. Will absolutely stay here again next time we’re in Nantucket!
What an incredible house - absolutely gorgeous, comfortable, clean, and so convenient to everything. One of the best properties we’ve ever stayed at - we will absolutely be back, already looking forward to our next stay!
Beautiful little historic home with all the modern conveniences. House was tastefully decorated, very clean, and close to everything. We slept great both nights and enjoyed our evenings by the cozy electric fireplaces watching TV. Thank you to our hosts for a wonderful stay!
Great spot for a getaway weekend. Location is perfectly close to town. But just far enough away so it’s quiet. Nice little coffee shop steps away. No need for a car. 10 min walk from Steamship and 5 from Hy-line and stop n shop. Would absolutely stay here again.

About the host
Hosted by Sam & Kerstin Pierpont
We bought this house because it was next door to our cottage.
Why they chose this property
This house has a wonderful location...not only right in town and a short walk to everything, but it's also right next door to other property we own, so it's easy to manage. We recommend coming without a car because most everything is within a short walk. When you want to travel to other parts of the island, we recommend the $2 clean buses that stop right across the street or the taxis which also form a waiting line a block away. My wife's favorite part of the morning is walking right next door to the coffee shop for cinnamon muffins and coffee. We think you'll like it!
What makes this property unique
...the charm of 1750 with modern conveniences...all within a block or two of town and the harbor. you can even walk from the hy-line ferry dock with your bags. Walk home after a wonderful dinner or drinks.
