Nantucketâs rental market reflects the islandâs unique blend of historic charm, coastal beauty, and a vibrant seasonal community. Visitors and longâterm residents alike are drawn to the cobblestone streets of the historic district, the iconic Brant Point Light, and the pristine beaches of Siasconset and Madaket. These attractions, combined with a strong demand for upscale living spaces, shape a market that favors spacious homes and wellâmaintained apartments. While the island offers a limited selection of apartments, the majority of rentals are detached houses, many of which provide multiâbedroom layouts ideal for families or groups seeking a fullâservice seaside retreat.
For larger households, 4+ bedroom houses dominate the highâend segment, with rent typically falling in the $15,000s and median values hovering around the $17,000 range. These properties often feature waterfront views, private docks, and historic architectural details that complement Nantucketâs preserved New England aesthetic. Neighborhoods such as Oak Hollow and Siasconset are especially popular for their proximity to golf courses, sailing clubs, and upscale dining. Whether youâre looking for a seasonal summer home, a yearâround residence, or a shortâterm vacation rental, Nantucketâs wellâcurated housing options provide both comfort and a distinctive island lifestyle.
