For the first time in nearly 100 years, the iconic Wade Cottages a cherished cornerstone of Sconset history are being offered for sale. Originally acquired in 1929 as a family estate, this storied property has since served as both an inn and a beloved single-family home. Rich in character, steeped in history, and unrivaled in location, this is truly a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Perched high on the bluff with sweeping views of the Atlantic Ocean, the estate features a stately main house complemented by a classic three-bay garage. A gracious covered porch welcomes you, leading into a stunning living room adorned with a fireplace, multiple seating areas, and a wall of windows that frame breathtaking ocean views. The residence is as functional as it is elegant, with a grand living room at the heart of the home separating two thoughtfully designed wings. The house offers over 10+ bedrooms nine of which are ocean-facing and six bathrooms, including two en suite rooms, and two bedrooms with a shared bath. The north wing includes an office/mudroom, a kitchen, pantry, and a formal dining room. The south wing features a den with a fireplace and a two-room suite complete with an en suite bath and private sitting room. The dining room, main living area, and den all have direct access to a wide ocean-view deck, ideal for al fresco dining or shaded relaxation. Dual staircases one in each wing enhance privacy and circulation for residents and guests alike. Upstairs, the second level offers nine bedrooms, including a spacious primary suite that spans the depth of the house, connects the north and south wings, and features a dressing area and private bath. The north wing contains three bedrooms that share a spacious full bathroom. The south wing includes five bedrooms: three share a hall bath, while two twin bedrooms share a Jack-and-Jill bath. The beautifully landscaped grounds boast an expansive lawn stretching to the bluff s edge, a private hedged patio with water views, and a second hedged patio featuring a firepit, seating area, and space for lawn games. Additional amenities include two outdoor showers and direct access to the Sconset Bluff Walk and the beach via a Land Bank staircase. More than a home, the Wade Cottages represent a legacy an irreplaceable piece of Nantucket s heritage. This is a rare chance to own one of Sconset s most treasured bluff properties, where generations have gathered and enduring memories have been made.
