Save money on your booking by going to photo 74, titled "Back deck with gas grill and outdoor shower" (the photo of the outdoor tables and chairs and umbrellas with a pink flowering plant in the foreground). The space As you drive up the circular shell driveway and see the stonework, gardens & wrap-around porches of Incandescence, you'll feel the delight of your own dream home. From sunrise flooding the breakfast area til the last rays of sun set over the moors, the house glows with the beauty of Nantucket’s ever-changing light. It's a house classy enough for entertaining but comfy enough to kick off your flip flops, put on music & relax after a day at the beach. 'Incandescence' is decorated in a warm, beachy-country style with plenty of blue and white furnishings, wicker and antique pine. And although this large (4,800 square foot) house comfortably sleeps 12, it is chock full of unpretentious places, intimate spaces, and the quirky little hideaways that make a classic Nantucket home linger forever in your memory ... 'Incandescence' is spacious enough for 2 or even 3 families to vacation together. Each of the five bedrooms has its own beautifully tiled en suite bath, and there are two half baths off the 'public' rooms. Guests rave about the 2 large living rooms, the gourmet kitchen & the fact that large groups can spread out (everyone finding their own special niche spot), but even small groups find the house warm and inviting. The huge master bedroom on the second floor boasts a king bed, a sitting area with sofa and club chairs, a private covered balcony with views across Tom Nevers and out to sea, and a spa-sized, luxurious, tumbled-marble bath with a JACUZZI tub, from which there are also beautiful views. The master bath also has his & her sinks and a large two-person, glass-enclosed shower with double shower-heads and multiple wall jets. Two of the bedrooms on the first floor - one with a king bed, and one with a full/double bed and a futon - are off a large, private hallway. Both rooms are large (particularly the king), and could easily serve as second 'masters' when two or three families vacation together. Another bedroom - with two twins - is off the living area. Bedroom #5 has a queen bed and is on the second floor. THE 'LIVING' AREAS: The living room features cathedral ceilings, high gable windows, a wood burning fireplace, and French doors out to the deck, which is equipped with table, chairs, umbrella, gas grill and an outdoor shower. A wonderful gourmet kitchen with butter-yellow glazed cabinetry, limestone counters and stainless steel appliances awaits your culinary flair; an open floor plan to the large dining area allows hosts and guests to feel equally at home. Off the kitchen is a charming, inviting family room with stereo, TV and games for the whole family, plus a gas-fired fireplace to take the chill off those late summer/early Fall nights. Air conditioning, cable, high speed Internet, and WiFi allow you to remain comfortable and stay in touch, even on the Far Away Land. *For WINTER and EARLY SPRING rentals only* the house will be offered with 4 bedrooms (not 5), including: 2 bedrooms with king beds, 1 with a queen bed, and 1 with a queen bed *and* a futon that opens into a double bed. There is also a third floor "bonus room" which has a second futon that also opens into a double bed. Each of the four bedrooms has its own full *en suite* bathroom, and the house also has two half baths. (The bedroom with 2 twin beds will be locked and inaccessible.)
