97 Orange Street, Nantucket MA

This wonderful home in the heart of town has been given many modern updates for the 2019 season by a former Ralph Lauren designer to make for an easy, comfortable and relaxing stay on the island.

The main house has four to five bedrooms and two full baths, each with hardwood floors and Serena & Lily linens. The similarly-furnished guest cottage over the detached garage has an additional suite with a queen bed, kitchenette and full bath along with a private entrance - perfect for a second couple or caregiver.

Both buildings have central air conditioning. Between the two is a lovely private yard with mature perennial beds, a spacious bluestone patio and outdoor dining area with a Weber grill and a Kinsley Bate teak table that seats eight. There is also a spacious, enclosed outdoor shower.

The house is fully furnished with all-new linens and bath towels, glasses, and dishware plus all the accessories you need to enjoy your stay, from board games to beach chairs, sand toys and beach towels. The house and cottage have cable TV and high-speed WiFi, among other included utilities. One parking space is available off-street in the private driveway; there is also plentiful on-street parking in front of the house. The top of Main Street is a 5-minute walk away on Orange Street via sidewalks, making it convenient to stroll downtown for shopping and dinner. No smoking, no pets. Maximum occupancy of 8 (6 in the main house and 2 in the guest cottage).
