About This Home

Step into timeless Nantucket charm at 12 Academy Lane, a beautifully renovated 1843 home steeped in history and thoughtfully modernized for today’s living. Tucked away on one of Nantucket’s oldest registered roads—named for the island’s first academy—this residence offers a rare opportunity to own a part of the island’s storied past. Lovingly maintained by the same family for over 175 years, the home has changed hands only once outside the original lineage. Now, with the major renovations already complete, it’s ready for your personal touch to make it truly your own. Spanning three levels, this four-bedroom, four-and-a-half bath home features en-suite bedrooms, detailed woodwork, and fresh, elevated finishes throughout. Original elements have been carefully preserved, offering a subtle yet striking nod to the home’s historic roots. Located in a peaceful pocket of Town, you’ll enjoy privacy and quiet, while still being just moments away from downtown Nantucket’s vibrant shops, restaurants, and harbor. 12 Academy Lane isn’t just a home—it’s a legacy. Don’t miss the chance to make it yours.
