Originally acquired in 1929, this cherished cornerstone of ’Sconset history has been enjoyed as a beloved family compound. Unrivaled in location and scale, this represents a true once-in-a-lifetime legacy opportunity. Commanding an expansive and elevated vantage point with sweeping, unobstructed 180-degree views of the Atlantic Ocean, the compound seamlessly pairs a stately Main House (35 Shell) with a Guest House (33 Shell). The compound is complemented by a classic three-bay garage and magnificent, deep oceanfront lawns. The Main House: Designed with flawless flow and symmetry, a grand central living room anchors the home, separating two distinct wings. North Wing: Features a dedicated office/mudroom, kitchen, butler's pantry, and formal dining room with expansive views and direct access to the ocean-facing deck. South Wing: Offers a cozy den with a fireplace and a private two-room guest suite complete with its own sitting room and full bath. The dining room, central living area, and den all open directly onto a sweeping ocean-view deck—perfect for al fresco dining or shaded afternoon relaxation. Dual staircases—one in each wing—enhance privacy and provide exceptional internal circulation. The upper floor features nine of the property's ten plus bedrooms, almost all of which are ocean-facing. The Primary Suite: Spans the entire depth of the house to connect the north and south wings, boasting a private dressing area and en-suite bath. The compound is an entertainer's dream, defined by an expansive oceanfront lawn and two private, hedge-lined patios configured for firepits, lawn games, and lounge seating. The grounds are complete with two outdoor showers and direct, deeded access to the beach. More than a home, 33 & 35 Shell Street represents an irreplaceable piece of Nantucket’s heritage. Welcome to the ultimate ’Sconset legacy.
