A rare combination of waterfront location, sweeping Atlantic Ocean views, and fully HDC-approved plans, this exceptional estate offers immediate enjoyment today with remarkable potential for the future. Recently approved by the HDC, Botticelli & Pohl's plans for both the reimagined main residence and guest cottage, together with beautifully designed pool plans by Elisabeth O'Rourke, present an exciting vision for the property's next chapter. The newly approved pool plans remain valid for the next three years, providing future ownership with the opportunity to create an exceptional outdoor living experience with approvals already in place. Combined with these significant HDC approvals, the property presents a rare opportunity to enjoy an extraordinary waterfront residence today while thoughtfully shaping its future. Panoramic Atlantic Ocean vistas, exceptional grounds, and an ever-changing coastal landscape create one of Nantucket's most compelling waterfront settings. 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.
