I grew up in a house that looked like this (yes there were six of us)

And then, when I got a scholarship to go to college here...

and here...

I spent my summers nannying for a local family that "summers" here...

In this lovely (and deceptively small looking for a 8BR/5BA) home...

Filled with the whole collection of these Claire Murray nantucket cottage rugs...

Now I'm looking at rentals for us for this summer, and of course end up looking at properties for sale. Bad Katie. Remember we live 1100 miles away, so not exactly weekend easy. ::trying not to think of Boston job I turned down last year::
I want this one. Bad. At $270K in Osterville, it's a bargain. We could afford it, if I ate ramen for the rest of my life.


With these out front, instead of those silly shrubs... Ahhhhh... Perfect.

I'm obsessed with Coastal Mass as well. If we can't have kids husband and I are moving to Nantucket permanently. I'm in love with it. New England + beach + ocean = perfect.
We have a few places we've rented on Nantucket if you ever need a rec! We've actually never stayed on the Cape but have managed to drive all of South of Boston. This Spring we're going to search NoBo to see if we like it better...I don't know how we could. Cohasset and Scituite have already stolen my heart.
