Known as the Nantucket House due to its gray, cedar shake shingles, scooping rooflines, and mature always-in-bloom landscaping, this one-of-a-kind home offers both space and unparalleled charm. The nearly quarter acre lot gives children and pets plenty of room to romp with separate gathering areas for family and friends to relax nearby, either in the outdoor seating areas or on the grand porch, exquisitely enclosed with large picture windows overlooking the entire yard. The porch boasts 16 natural wood ceilings, country-style ceiling fans, and plenty of space for lounging on an oversized sectional with dining for as many as 18 surrounded by nature and its light. The open-concept kitchen, breakfast room, and family room form a communal living space and connect to the grand porch through French doors that open wide, inviting all to flow to and from one space to the other.

This entrance is naturally lit by a large southern-exposure picture window that highlights the wide, curved stairwell. Theres plenty of room on the exterior porch, in the entryway, and in the foyer for removing shoes, school backpacks, coats, and hats, which can easily be stored in the deep, tall custom-designed coat closet that adjoins the foyer.
