It was through reading a venerable old book on the history of The Society of Friends that we first became acquainted with the island of Nantucket, which lay thirty miles east of mainland Massachusetts in the Atlantic Ocean. Nantucket was populated by Native Americans for centuries before being joined by a tiny handful of English settlers with names like Starbuck, Macy, and Gardner. These names are still common on Nantucket today.

If one word were synonymous with the name of Nantucket, it would be ''WHALES''. From the catching of the first sperm whale off the north shore of the island in the 17th century, a great fleet numbering hundreds of vessels circumnavigated in the globe in search of whales, and perhaps the most valuable commodity of all things in the American economy - Whale Oil.

In less than 200 years, Nantucket and its inhabitants became the richest people in America. Their wealth,
homes, gardens, cobbled streets, shops, restaurants, museums, and natural beauty of the moors are unmatched.

And the spectacular sunsets from the deck of 99 Somerset are absolutely unforgettable.

What is special about this property?
99 Somerset is located less than 1/2 mile drive to Miacomet Beach, or a brisk 20 minute bike ride or walk.
The house is situated 3 blocks from Miacomet Public Golf Course, one of the 2 public golf courses on the island. All others are paid, Members Only.


What is special about your town?
We are in a very desirable location, close to Nantucket town, and a short walk (1/2 block) up our road to the commuter bus stop which serves the entire island. Our bike paths are well maintained and connected to the wider island bicycle system. The Miacomet beach is one of the few beaches that supports a daily lifeguard.
