About this property
Charming Historic Downtown Cottage
Dream cottage downtown Nantucket... Head up Main Street to your historic 1850 fully renovated cottage! HUGE back yard and brick patio with large table and umbrella and outdoor gas grill. A ten minute walk from the bustling town center, we are on a lovely dead end road—two bedrooms with bonus sleeping areas that has everything you will need for a beautiful vacation. Ten minute drive to most southside beaches, we have beach chairs and umbrellas, a patio, table and chairs and barbecue grill, lovely gardens and, did I mention, a HUGE back yard as well as plenty of parking, internet, and more. Charming decor, well appointed kitchen, this lovely, charming home sleeps 5 people comfortably. Five night minimum stay in season.
If you are looking for quiet and privacy, lots of space and parking but still in the heart of the downtown historic area then look no more. The featured cottage is next door to our additional three bedroom listing, 6 Lowell Place-perfect family compound opportunity to share a HUGE property with mom & Dad or in-laws or a couples retreat. Also lends itself beautifully to a celebration or wedding venue with plenty of room to entertain under a large tent. 10 minute walk down historic cobbled Main Street amongst the gorgeous Whaling Mansions to shops, harbor and delectable restaurants.

About the host
Hosted by Deirdre Hamling

My family and I are excited to share this lovely, recently restored, historic cottage with you and your family. Built by Althea Macy in 1850-the Macy’s are one of the founding families of Nantucket. The home is cozy and private while still located in the heart of the downtown historic district.
