This week’s Beach House Tour is actually a complex of six shingled homes, each 3,500 square feet, and located in historic Nantucket. Each residence was sited to maximize privacy while taking advantage of outdoor living areas. You’ll find that each home offers coziness and 19th century cottage details; however they are full of technology and every convenience imaginable.
