Wake up to views over Washing Pond, spend the afternoon beside the heated pool, and gather around the fire pit as the sun sets toward the ocean.
Set on nearly two private acres in Nantucket`s Cliff Road neighborhood, 13 Washing Pond is a 6,757-square-foot estate designed by Botticelli & Pohl Architects, with high ceilings, detailed millwork and bright interiors. Terraced lawns and a private path lead down to the pond, with the ocean beyond.
Eight bedrooms accommodate up to 24 guests, with six king beds, three queen beds, four full-size beds and two twin beds across the property. Two private guest studios in the detached poolside cottage offer additional privacy, each with its own entrance, full bathroom and kitchenette.

THE PROPERTY
The main house spans three finished levels, with oak hardwood floors, coffered ceilings, four fireplaces and large windows framing the landscape.
The first floor includes open living and dining areas, a kitchen with a Wolf five-burner gas range, and a sunny breakfast room. A walk-in pantry, mudroom and large laundry room add convenience for longer stays.
The first-floor primary suite features a king bed, a sitting room or office, a walk-in closet, a private ensuite bathroom and a private covered porch. Upstairs, a vaulted family room opens onto a deck overlooking the water, alongside two ensuite bedrooms: one with a king bed and one with two queen beds.
The bright walkout lower level features 10-foot ceilings, oversized windows, a lounge and a game area. A custom mahogany bar with boat-inspired brass lighting includes an ice maker, dishwasher and full-size beverage refrigerator, with its own full bath for entertaining. A king bedroom and a bunk room with four full-size beds share this level, served by two additional full bathrooms. Glass doors open onto a stone terrace and the backyard.

OUTDOOR LIVING
Start your day on a covered porch overlooking the grounds, then follow the private path down to Washing Pond.
The Gunite pool with Pebbletec finish and the Gunite spa, which spills into the pool by waterfall, are both heated year-round and surrounded by stone terraces. A pool cabana and expansive terraced lawns, patios and decks offer several places to enjoy the setting throughout the day.
As evening settles in, gather around the fire pit overlooking the pond and ocean. An outdoor shower makes it convenient to rinse off after a day outdoors.
Bikes and beach gear are provided for the whole group free of charge. Just ask.
