Stylish & Highly Appointed 4 BR Naushop Colonial~PICKLEBALL~POOL~TENNIS

NIPTUCKET is a light, bright & airy home with comfortable spaces in
NAUSHOP, a community that reflects quintessential Nantucket! We always knew that we would purchase on Nantucket one day, and that it would be in Naushop. We love the 'village feel' taking long, late afternoon or early morning walks, waving to neighbors as we pass by, many of whom return each year. We love to see children riding bikes in the safety of our private streets and dogs enjoying a dog-friendly environment. We love hearing the laughter coming from the heated swimming pool or cheers from the tennis courts. The clubhouse, kiddie pool and playground complete the picture. The convenient location adds to the luxury of being a Naushop homeowner. We walk or bike to most places; Nantucket Meat & Fish Market, Nantucket Seafoods, the health club or any one of a variety of nearby restaurants. After years of real estate shopping, we walked into 17 Goldfinch and knew immediately that it was our home. It was a home that fit our long list of criteria. We wanted a 4 story home with full basement and full attic for possible future expansion. We realized that 4 bedrooms was a must for our growing family. We also realized that we liked separate first floor rooms to allow everyone the privacy of different spaces when the gang is all there. The location within the village itself was also important to us, as we ideally wanted the quiet of an upper Goldfinch location, the highest point in the village which looks out over those homes nestled in the lower village, particularly because of the sunset views. Our home sits on one of the larger lots giving us a larger rear yard. This was important to us as it's our 'outside room', and where we spend most summer days and evenings entertaining family and friends with long dinner parties and lawn games that run into late-night. We recently hosted 150 guests for an outdoor wedding brunch.

We purchased our home summer 2013. The house is always freshly painted inside and out, with professionally designed and cared for window boxes. The front and rear and side doors have new storm/screen doors. We installed wall-mounted flat screen TVs in all four bedrooms, a 60 inch in the Family room off the kitchen and a 65 inch in the lower level, for a total of 6 TVs.

The FIRST FLOOR has a lovely welcoming Foyer accessed via a high gloss black front door with polished chrome hardware. We love the a straight view of the large rear yard from the front door which looks out to the teak patio furniture with navy cushions and umbrella. To the left is a separate dining room for lovely dinners of 8-10. This room doubles as a study for those seeking a private place to work. To the right of the foyer is the charming Living room with wood-burning fireplace and built-in bookcase. Straight ahead is the large, open eat-in Kitchen with center island, large cook area and large eating area with a trestle table that seats 12. This room opens up to the intimate Family room with the second wood-burning fireplace, a 60 inch wall mounted flat SMART TV with the Xfinity package with (pay per view), the highlight of the house! Off the kitchen is a half bath, a hallway with a door leading to the outside, a large supply closet and a coat closet. French doors in the kitchen open to the yard for easy access for lovely alfresco meals. Morning coffee outside is the best.

The SECOND FLOOR, has a wrap-around hallway with front window allowing for incredible sunset views. The four bedrooms have lots of windows for a light, bright and cheerful feel. Each of the bedrooms has high-end linens, either Matouck, Ralph Lauren or Sferra, and a wall-mounted flat TV screen.

The Master bedroom has a KING 4-poster white linen canopied bed, double chest of drawers, lovely linens, white fluffy towels, his and her closets, 4 windows and a BRAND NEW en suite full bath with double sinks and shower with double heads. There is a SMART TV flat screen.

The second bedroom has a Queen 4-poster with Matouk linens, large closet and wall-mounted flat screen TV.

The third bedroom has a QUEEN 4 poster bed, new bedside tables, new high chest of drawers, large closet and hardwood floors and wall-mounted flat screen TV.

The fourth bedroom has two TWIN beds with Ralph Lauren navy and white linens, large closet, hardwood floors and wall-mounted flat screen TV.

The hall full bath is BRAND NEW with double sinks and marble shower with glass doors.

The LOWER LEVEL is partially finished with media and laundry areas. The media room has a sectional sofa and 65 inch flat screen TV

The separate laundry room offers slate grey computerized washer and dryer and folding table.

The YARD is flat and perfect for game playing, children's activities, passing a football, luxuriating alfresco meals or simply for 'sundowners' after a long day at the beach. There is a large shed, an almost new enclosed outdoor shower (glorious for showering on a sunny morning) and a Weber gas grill.

We love the spacious, stone gravel driveway, large enough to park three cars and very convenient when loading up the cars with lots of people and beach stuff!

The beautiful clubhouse, heated pool, two tennis courts, kiddie pool, playground, pickleball court and shuffleboard complete the picture. We hope you enjoy our island home on magical Nantucket as much as we do!
