Welcome to 8 West Chester Street, a classic circa-1800 whaling captain’s home that blends timeless charm with relaxed, livable comfort. This charming and beautifully maintained antique home is a short walk to Town with its own off-street parking. With five bedrooms and four bathrooms, this special Nantucket home has been enjoyed by generations. One of the home’s standout features is the large private yard – a rare find this close to Town. After years of family gatherings, laughter, and shared summers, we hope your family will feel right at home and create memories of your own. Just a short walk to Town’s restaurants, shops, beaches, and more, 8 West Chester is a wonderful home base for enjoying all that Nantucket has to offer.

First Floor

As you enter through the front door, you’ll find a formal living room to your left. Just beyond it is a comfortable first-floor queen bedroom. The kitchen, dining room, and a second living room are also conveniently located on this level, along with a full bathroom.

Second Floor

The second floor offers four bedrooms, including a king, queen, full, and a room with two twin beds. There are three full bathrooms on this level—one at the front of the house, one in the middle, and an ensuite bathroom with a claw-footed bathtub off the twin bedroom.

Third Floor

The third floor offers bright and flexible bonus space, with a comfortable sitting area featuring a couch and TV, as well as two desks for anyone who may need to work remotely during their stay.
