Notes
  • Significance: House is a good example in excellent condition of typical early eighteenth century Nantucket house of two stories with a lean-to addition forming a "saltbox" roof profile. The Nathaniel Macy House is a typical eighteenth century Nantucket dwelling noted for simplicity of decoration limited to an articulation of the braced frame structural system and utilitarian trim. It is two stories with a lean-to addition forming a "saltbox" roof profile, clapboard and shingle exterior, central chimney, solid stock window frames and a classical front doorway. It is believed that the house was first built at Sherburne and moved to its present location prior to 1745. First occupied by Nathaniel Macy, it was restored after 1934 by Mrs. Ruth L. Christian.
