Welcome to 240 Polpis Road, one of Nantucket’s most exclusive harborfront estates. This private 7.2-acre waterfront property in the highly sought-after Polpis area features a beautifully designed 4-bedroom, 4.5-bath home, a 2-car garage, and a rare 260-foot private dock with tidal float—one of only 15 licensed private docks on the entire island. Boasting over 1,000 acres of surrounding conservation land, this estate offers unparalleled privacy, panoramic Nantucket Harbor views, and direct boating access. This is truly a boater’s paradise, with the ability to cruise from your dock to Nantucket Yacht Club, Angler’s Club, or Town Pier in under 15 minutes. On the return, enjoy fishing for striped bass or docking at The Wauwinet for a waterfront lunch. Inside, the home is filled with natural light and features expansive water views from nearly every room. The elegant and comfortable interior is perfect for both entertaining and relaxing, blending timeless design with the serenity of the natural landscape.
