Joie de Vivre -- Shimmo Estate

Located in exclusive Shimmo, on otherworldly Nantucket Island, this magnificent residence boasts a sweeping view of Nantucket Sound. Situated upon two acres of lawns with flowering trees and gardens, this lovely home provides total privacy, yet is only 10 minutes from the town of Nantucket. Its all-glass Florida room, summer and winter living rooms, and fabulous trompe l'oeil painting throughout all contribute to making the name Joie de Vivre particularly suited for this residence. It also includes a four-bedroom main house and two-bedroom guest house. In the rear a gazebo and connecting flagstone patios and garden walks are beautifully maintained. The three wings make the home ideal for entertaining and privacy, and a separate garage/guest house adds convenience. The property also has access to the Shimmo Association beach and mooring area.
