Features
-

-
Library Browse through a selection of books to find the perfect vacation read.
-
Spiral Staircase to Loft A unique architectural feature leading up to a children's reading and game area.
Situated toward the front of the house alongside the Dining Room, the Living Room offers a peaceful, book-lined sanctuary when you want a quiet moment away from the lively Family Room. Centered around a classic brick fireplace and the home's distinctive spiral staircase leading up to the Crow's Nest loft, the room features built-in bookshelves stocked with Nantucket history, coastal fiction, and classic board games for all ages. Open the windows to catch the salt air drifting off the North Shore from Cliff Beach, curl up in an armchair with an afternoon read, and experience the unhurried rhythm of old island life.
Throughout your stay, you will appreciate how effortlessly the five bedrooms, two full bathrooms, and two half bathrooms accommodate up to 12 guests without ever feeling crowded. Whether your family is gathering for pancakes before biking into Downtown Nantucket, rinsing off in the cedar outdoor shower after an afternoon at Cliff Beach, or sharing stories on the Courtyard Deck at sunset, every corner of The Nantucket Sandcastle is designed for relaxed, authentic island living.
