“Keep Calm” is a 2400sf two-story renovated upside-down house with open plan space on the upstairs floor.

On the ground floor there are 4 bedrooms and a laundry nook. Built in early 2022, the main bedroom has a king sized bed, walk in closet and en-suite bathroom. This bedroom faces East and has additional privacy. Also on the ground floor are three additional bedrooms. One bedroom has a king size bed, generous closets, 2 dressers and has an en-suite full bathroom, this could be used as a second master. From this room a set of sliders lead to an outdoor deck, which has a set of chairs that face West, and a private outdoor shower (with door) where you can enjoy a hot outdoor shower. Two more bedrooms on the ground floor each have two twin beds. All of the bedrooms have blackout shades on the windows and duvets on the beds. There is a full hall bathroom on the ground floor and a brand new LG washer and LG dryer in the laundry nook that is in the hallway that leads to the main bedroom.

Upstairs is a large open floor plan with abundant windows, two sets of sliding doors, a skylight and a vaulted ceiling with exposed beams. The light and breezes from all of those windows is beautiful. On one side of the staircase is a living area with Roku TV, Sonos speakers and a seating area that accommodates 8 people. On the other side is a dining table that seats 8 including a spacious banquette. Also upstairs is a powder room with skylight and carrera marble sink stand. New light fixtures throughout the house give it a modern feel.

The kitchen, including new cabinets and countertop, was installed in early 2022. The kitchen offers all new appliances including a Wolf range, chefs quality exhaust and stainless steel refrigerator with french doors. The kitchen is fully outfitted with everything you need to make your stay comfortable including basic pantry items, an electric kettle, blender, coffee maker, french press, toaster, platters for entertaining, microwave and a lobster pot.

From the living room area, through two sets of sliders, is a large wrap around deck with a teak table that can seat 6, an outdoor sectional and a Weber grill. Here you can enjoy ocean breezes, views over the backyard and western sunsets. You may even be able to see the fireworks at Jettie's Beach on the 4th of July. The property has an oversized yard with lots of space and privacy for all to enjoy.

Other special touches that encourage you to enjoy your vacation is a basket of extra blankets by the door that you can use to ward off an evening chill, a large book selection and a selection of games.

It is a short walk or bike ride to the Sconset Beach, the Sconset playground, Sankaty Lighthouse and 'Sconset Village (.5 mile) which is a charming hub of activity with restaurants and clothing shops, provisions market, ice cream store and East facing ocean. Be sure to check out the seals on the beach, take a stroll along the Sconset Bluff Walk and take a photo near the charming homes on the iconic Front Street.

The beginning of the 7 mile Polpis Road bike path is nearby as is the Wave bus stop which conveniently takes you to Nantucket Town where you can enjoy incredible restaurants, Dreamland Movie Theater, shopping, museums, etc. While we do recommend that you have a car on island, the bike paths and the bus routes can get you almost anywhere that you want to go.

The television is a ROKU and has cable. If you want to link to your Amazon account, you can set log in and set it up.

There are SONOS speakers that you can connect to to listen to your music.
Light bulbs, a vacuum, mop, recycling bins, clear trash bags and other supplies are located in the pantry closet (located near the kitchen).

Beach chairs and beach umbrellas are available for your use. We have plenty of beach towels available. We do not offer bikes, but there are many rental companies on island.

Cleaners were at the house before you arrived and will come after you leave.

Landscapers will arrive once per week to cut the grass and keep the landscaping tidy and trash collection is twice a week. The bin receptacle is located behind the garage. Please remember that Nantucket has strict recycling requirements and separate trash cans are available in the kitchen to help you with recycling. All items that go in the trash must be bagged and tied.

We hope that you have a fantastic vacation at ‘Keep Calm’!!

    Sarah and Tim are wonderful hosts. They were responsive, helpful and seemed to genuinely care that we had a good vacation. The house is delightful! It was immaculate and fully supplied. There was plenty of comfortable furniture, a great deck and nice size yard if you have small kids. We enjoyed our time there and would definitely stay again!

    This was our second time staying at this property (see my review from 2023) and we had another incredible trip. The house itself is fantastic - comfortable, full of light, tastefully decorated - and the location is superb. The hosts are very responsive and nice. We look forward to our next visit!

    Stayed for a week at this lovely home. Had a spectacular time. It's as beautiful as the photos suggest. Wonderful space, well stocked, full amenities, lovely deck to relax on. This is our first time staying at this end of the island. It's a quick walk/bike ride to the beach and small village. Beaches are beautiful! Owners were wonderful to deal with. Whenever we had a question, they were quick to respond. Would highly recommend this home and wouldn't hesitate to return.

    Light and Bright, as advertised. Kitchen and bathrooms were well-equipped. 2 bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms make it very comfortable for two couples. Close enough to ‘Sconset for a morning stroll to get fresh-baked muffins, scones, etc. Excellent, timely, communications from our host were greatly appreciated. Overall, a very relaxing, enjoyable, experience.

    My husband and our 3 children (ages 6, 8, and 10) just finished a week long stay at this home. Sarah and Tim were fantastic hosts. The location was perfect for our needs. It is only a 5 minute walk to the Sconset Bluff Walk, and the neighborhood is quiet and peaceful. The house is set back far enough from the road that it feels very private. It is also important to note that there is not a lot of traffic on the road and no traffic at night (unlike some other parts of the island closer to town). Our kids enjoyed playing in the back yard. The house itself is lovely. It is tasteful decorated and very clean and cheerful. We loved all of the windows and light! The bedrooms were all very comfortableon the main level, and the kitchen/living/dining is all on the second level. It has a large outdoor deck off of the living room, which was the perfect spot for a morning cup of coffee or a glass of wine in the evening. The deck had beautiful sunset views. There were many nights we sat on the balcony looking at the stars. The outdoor shower was perfect after a day at the beach. The owners obviously care very much for their home, and it shows. Overall an A+ vacation rental. Could not recommend more highly! Kate and Kerry Hage

    We had another wonderful week at Keep Calm. The house is lovely and very clean with everything you could possibly need. Sarah was very easy to communicate with and was very welcoming. Restaurants, beaches and the bluff walk are all a wonderful part of Sconset. We can’t wait tor our week next year.

    Sarah and Tim were great leading up to our stay and was a very easy check in. We love Sconset and the house was perfectly situated far enough yet close enough to town where we could walk in each morning. Plenty of space and the upstairs area was a great open space for our family. We will be back indeed!!
