A truly rare opportunity to own a harbor-view property with unmatched development potential — 2 Shore Rd lot is 11,484 ft, 50% ground cover by right for 5 years from purchase (grandfathered from CN conversion). That equates to 5,742 sq ft of buildable ground cover — a scope nearly impossible to find this close to Town, with direct harbor views.

The property currently includes:

Main Home 1894 sq ft on the ground and

Garage Structure 384 sq ft on the ground.

Total existing ground cover of just 2,278 sq ft, leaving 3,464 sq ft available — ideal for a substantial new residence or addition

Enjoy panoramic views over Nantucket Harbor, the Town Pier, Francis Street Beach, and kayak launch. Just a quarter mile from Main Street on a private street, this site offers walk-to-town convenience with a rare combination of scale, zoning flexibility, and scenery.

With Great Harbor Yacht Club to the east and the soon-to-be removed Senior Center adjacent, this parcel sits in a rapidly enhancing view corridor. Surrounded by 14 properties now owned by the Town or Land Bank, the future of this location is primed for open space and long-term view protection.

50% ground cover grandfathered for 5 years (5,742 sq ft total allowable) -

Direct harbor views and premier location -

Potential for a new 5,000+ sq ft custom residence -

Walkable to Town, ferries, beaches, and dining -
