About this house rental
This classic Nantucket home, located just up the street from the Jared Coffin House in Nantucket town, was built in 1807 by Captain Robert Gardner, Jr. who captained the Chili, a whaler made famous during the War of 1812.
This elegant and spacious 4-bedroom home features a large eat-in kitchen, lovely dining room, comfortable den, living room and powder room on the first floor. Four bedrooms and 2 baths and a central family room on the second floor provide relaxation and privacy. Behind the house is a very large, sunny English garden, filled with butterflies and wildflowers. Reading? Writing? What's your pleasure?
Within biking distance of Jetties and Surfside beaches and located on a quiet tree-lined street 3 blocks from Main St, this is the perfect in-town option for families on the go who want the convenience of shopping in town but also a quiet environment for their Nantucket vacation.
The house is fully up to date with all appliances (electric stove, dishwasher, refrigerator, washer, dryer) and has private outdoor shower.
The second floor includes a large master bedroom with a canopy queen bed, a second bedroom with a double four-poster, a single bedroom with an antique iron bed and a fourth bedroom with two twin beds. In addition, there is a central sitting room with flatscreen TV, chess board and a variety of board games. The second floor also includes two full baths (one with shower, the other with a shower/ tub combination).
We are a no-smoking and unfortunately (due to Lyme), a no pets house.
A lease is required along with a security deposit for all rentals. 10% discounts are offered for stays of 2+ weeks and for all past tenants.

Great location. Easy walk into town. Manageable walk with luggage to/from Steamship Ferry. House has plenty of space for 5. If you like older, historic homes, this is a great fit. Reasonably accessible to a couple of bike paths, though a bit challenging to get to the ones on the other side of town (e.g., Polpis Road path). House is well-stocked. Host is responsive. Overall, we had a great stay.

Pure Heaven!! Annie's home is the quintessential Nantucket stay! A charming historic whaling captain's home built in 1807, with the authentic antique look and feel of this iconic era on this very special island. There are four cozy bedrooms and 2 baths on the second floor with a stately dining room with antique furniture, three fireplaces, a cozy den for reading or a cocktail...or two, a small powder room and a formal living room on the first floor. Open the windows as the sea breeze wafts the herbs and spices of a home cooked meal in a large eat-in kitchen as you converse with your loved ones. Alternatively, walk your "lobsta" outside and dine al fresco in the adjacent charming garden. Annie's home is a 2-3 block short stroll to town which allows you to experience a quick bagel before the kids get up, buy some food at market, or shop without a hassle. An easy bike ride and you are at the best beaches on the island. Annie's family has been on Nantucket for generations and she is a gracious well-bred host and she is very willing to work with you for any special requests. You can't go wrong here, but please leave me a week in August !!

Such good memories from staying here. Lobster feasts, friendship bracelets, boat fishing for bluefish, smoking and then eating the bluefish, shopping at the cute shops in town, bike riding to the sailboats, driving to and hanging out at the beach, and, of course, going to the bars in town at night! Thank you so much Annie for such an amazing week!

I returned to this Nantucket house for the 4th year in a row and look forward to my 5th! A gorgeous historic house set very close to downtown and the harbor. Wonderfully maintained property with enough space for myself and my friends. Even a lovely garden, perfect for an afternoon cocktail. I highly recommend this spot for a summer getaway!
