Property Description 3 Cottage Court, Nantucket, MA 02554
This turnkey, beautifully maintained home, is competitively priced! Tucked just moments from the heart of Nantucket Town, carefully preserved and extensively updated, this historic home offers a rare blend of timeless character and contemporary comfort. Move in and rental ready, 3 Cottage Court features three ensuite bedrooms, a powder room, and exceptional indoor-outdoor living.
Originally built in 1838, the home retains its authentic charm with treasured period details throughout—exposed original beams, antique brickwork, wide plank pine floors, and a rare secondary staircase. A distinctive leaded half-round window, farmhouse harlequin kitchen flooring, and a built-in brick-backed bookcase wall further highlight its storied past.
Recent renovations (2021–2026) have transformed the home into a turnkey retreat. The redesigned kitchen, pantry, and powder room offer both style and efficiency, complemented by newer premium appliances. A newly added primary suite with dormered ceilings provides a serene escape, complete with a walk-in closet and spa-like bath. Modern systems—including ductless mini-split heating and cooling, an on-demand water heater, new roof with copper gutters, all ensure year-round comfort.
Outdoor living is equally compelling. A private, wraparound brick patio—framed by ivy-covered fencing, mature landscaping, and what is believed to be the island’s oldest Japanese maple—creates a tranquil oasis ideal for entertaining. Enhancements include a newly added outdoor spa, refreshed patio and driveway, and an updated outdoor shower. The electrically wired patio space is perfectly suited for gatherings both large and intimate.
Set back from the street, on a quiet, almost hidden lane, 3CC offers the rare advantage of being located on the first block in town without residential parking permit requirements for your guests and entertainment parking needs. Lush hydrangeas and climbing roses welcome you at the front entry, completing the quintessential Nantucket aesthetic.
With a strong rental history and proven year-round livability, this exceptional offering presents a unique opportunity to own a piece of Nantucket’s history—beautifully adapted for modern living.
