Luxurious Island Escape: Spacious, Ideally Located Near Surfside Beaches & Town

“Knot a Sprint” is a historical-style, quintessentially Nantucket home with every modern amenity. Ideally situated on a quiet, private cul-de-sac, this unique offering is centrally located near popular Surfside area beaches, on the edge of Town, with bike path and shuttle access to all of Nantucket. From high-end bedding and towels to a chef’s kitchen, this property offers pampering and luxury living at its best.

Three floors of living space and over 3,000 sq. ft. create a welcoming retreat for you and your guests complete with two King Master Suites, two additional bedrooms, and a lower level with full bathroom that is flexible as an in-law or au pair suite or additional entertaining space. Expansive outdoor space with manicured lawn to enjoy lawn games, as well as a large outdoor patio with chaise loungers and comfortable outdoor seating around a large table and grill invite al fresco dining or enjoying sunset cocktails.

First Level Description
Spacious open concept living room, dining room, and chef’s kitchen with large breakfast bar. Living room with 65” Samsung smart tv with Sonos, cable, Apple TV, and DVD player. Master Suite with King bed, large spa-like bathroom, spacious walk-in closet, 60” Samsung smart tv with cable and Apple TV, and French doors leading onto a private deck with Adirondack chairs and beautiful landscaping.

Second Level Description
Second Master Suite with King bed, spacious bath, and 42” Samsung smart tv with cable and Apple TV. Additional Queen bedroom and a fourth bedroom offers two Twin beds with 48” Samsung smart tv with cable. A generously-sized additional bathroom with shower and tub and a large laundry room with washer and dryer, drying rack, and iron with board complete this floor.

Lower Level Description
Large family lounge with tall ceilings, high quality sectional sleeper sofa, 65” Samsung smart tv with cable and Sonos perfect for “movie nights,” and additional separate seating area. A second large entertaining lounge with wet bar and game table offer even more space for socializing and playing board games. A separate Queen bed is available for on-site setup or you can make use of the sleeper sofa. Separate office with desk and additional Keurig accommodates the (sometimes necessary) need to “reconnect to reality” while working in a quiet, dedicated space. This level is completed with a large walk-in closet and full bath, as well as a separate large storage area with beach equipment, additionally accessed from the backyard.

Outdoor Living
Step outside the home onto expansive meticulously manicured and private grounds, completely surrounded by tall well-trimmed privet. The sun-soaked property features a brick patio with two chaise loungers and large table with umbrella and seating for 8. Set up the additional on-site outdoor table and chairs and expand to al fresco seated dining for at least 12. A large Weber grill meets the needs of your hungry crowd. A separate deck with two Adirondack chairs allows for taking in the beautiful professionally-maintained landscaping and gorgeous island skies at dusk. A generously-sized enclosed outdoor shower provides a private place for guests to wash off the sea salt in the fresh air.

You can connect with the expansive island bike path network immediately at the street’s entrance, for those looking to go for a walk, run, or bike around to explore all that the island offers. On-island shuttle transport is also conveniently available nearby.

AMENITIES
All beds are appointed with luxury (Frette & Matouk) sheets, bedding, and pillows, with a boutique hotel feel. Plenty of storage space with large closets, dressers, and luggage racks.

Each bathroom is furnished with premium (Frette) bath towels and bathrobes for a spa-like experience and hairdryers for your convenience.

Chef’s kitchen is well equipped including a full set of top-shelf Calphalon cookware and an expansive collection of quality culinary items. The kitchen is also equipped with a Keurig (including an offering of coffee pods), classic coffeemaker, Bodum French Press…and plenty of take out menus.

Generous offering of quality beach towels, 12 beach chairs, 2 beach umbrellas, 2 boogie boards, large cooler, and picnic basket.

OPTIONAL LUXURY AMENITIES

Nantucket short stay
We had a great time in our VRBO. The home was beautiful, very well furnished and decorated, so march larger than you would expect. The home was very clean when we arrived and well stocked. We were close to everything. If we decide to go back, I would enjoy staying at this property again.

“Knot a Sprint” smooth sailing!
What a wonderful getaway!! Knot a Sprint had everything we wanted for our Nantucket weekend...clean, spacious and relaxing. As eight women who were looking for a complete break from a mom’s life, every amenity and supply was provided. The fine linens and soft goods in the home added luxury to make us all feel special. We thought we were taking a chance on location but found it to be excellent; central in the island and so easy for Uber! Thank you Thank You Ed and VRBO. We will be back.

Great House!
The pictures online don’t do this house justice. It is even nicer in person. It feels like a friend let you stay in their home. It is much nicer than a normal rental. We will definitely go back!

Awesome home, nicely appointed, close to everything
"Knot a Spirit" is a wonderful home with great accommodations. Bed were so comfortable, lots of closet space, kitchen is very well appointed with cooking utensils for everything. Great room for watching golf, tennis, etc. Great backyard for cornhole, spike ball, lounging and grilling. Outdoor shower is a huge bonus.

Knot a sprint
We had an amazing wedding weekend on Nantucket in late June and we rented Knot a Sprint and we were beyond excited to have such a beautiful home that was the perfect fit for our family. The house is decorated beautifully and the bedding and eminities were top knotch. We hope to stay there again soon. It’s the perfect location just outside of town and tucked away nicely with a gorgeous yard and privacy. We absolutely loved it and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for an enjoyable stay on Nantucket!!

Daffy Weekend in "Knot A Sprint"
We had a perfect weekend in your beautiful home with our friends and family! The house is furnished tastefully, and so comfortable and spacious. Love the artwork! It was so thoughtful that you had the flowerboxes done for spring before we arrived! Little details such as this make the stay more enjoyable. Thank you for your hospitality and helping us to add to Nantucket Daffodil memories. We hope to be back again!
