59 Baxter Road, Nantucket, MA

A rare combination of waterfront location, sweeping Atlantic views, and approved plans, this exceptional estate offers immediate enjoyment today with remarkable potential for the future. Recently approved by the HDC, plans by Botticelli & Pohl for a reimagined main residence provide a compelling vision for the property's next chapter. Additional cottage and pool renderings further illustrate the possibilities for enhancing this extraordinary coastal setting. Privately positioned along one of Nantucket's most dramatic stretches of coastline, the property enjoys panoramic ocean vistas and an ever-changing seascape just moments from the charm and conveniences of ’Sconset Village. Combined with recently approved architectural plans, the property presents a rare opportunity to enjoy a substantial waterfront residence today while thoughtfully shaping its future. Originally built in 1920 and thoughtfully renovated over time, the seven-bedroom residence embraces the essence of island living, where abundant natural light, refreshing sea breezes, and a seamless connection to the outdoors define the experience. Expansive porches and balconies frame breathtaking water views from nearly every vantage point, while generous living spaces are designed for both relaxed coastal living and effortless entertaining.

First Floor: With sweeping ocean views from nearly every window, the first floor is both inviting and beautifully connected to its setting. The main living room serves as the centerpiece of the home, opening seamlessly to the covered porches and flowing into the updated kitchen and comfortable family room. A first-floor guest suite and dedicated office add flexibility, while a bonus bedroom, privately accessed from the front porch, provides additional accommodations for guests.

Second Floor: The second floor with four bedrooms, led by a serene primary suite with its own porch and sweeping, uninterrupted views of the Atlantic. A front guest bedroom shares the same stunning outlook, while two rear guest bedrooms open onto a separate balcony. A bonus sitting room with built-in sleeping space adds yet another inviting layer to the home’s layout, ideal for overflow guests or relaxed summer living.

Basement: Completed as part of the 2012 renovation, the finished lower level is remarkably spacious, with soaring 12-foot ceilings that are rarely found in basement spaces. Thoughtfully designed for both comfort and function, it includes a relaxed media and sitting room, a large laundry room with dual washers and dryers, an ensuite guest bedroom, and a mudroom with a full bath. Two substantial storage and utility rooms offer exceptional practicality.
