42 Chuck Hollow Road, Nantucket, MA

Hollyhock, situated on one of the highest hills in Tom Nevers East is a five-bedroom residence accompanied by a three-bedroom guest cottage, all set on three rolling acres that offer exceptional privacy, high elevations, and sweeping views from both floors of the Atlantic Ocean, conservation land, and Tom Nevers Pond. Approaching the house, the significant investment in landscaping is apparent. A semi circular oyster shell driveway is flanked on either side by clustered river birch trees, hydrangeas, rhododendron, as well as boarders of lavender. The abundant landscaping is carried through with a plethora of variety of colors and textures. The stately shaker-like 1840's barn was moved from the Berkshire area of Massachusetts a few decades ago. The current owner has an acclaimed design background and has brought the property to a new level as evidenced by carefully selected furniture and accessories of antiques juxtaposed to modern touches. New additions include a bluestone patio leading towards a sunken garden with a commanding stone fireplace as the centerpiece. A constructed pavilion flanking the 60' x 20' heated saline pool with retractable cover, an outdoor kitchen, and a totally enclosed fenced in perimeter. Hollyhock provides nostalgic warmth and comfort while blending updated and enhanced indoor and outdoor spaces.
