Only One Of Seven Nantucket Sales Carries Recorded Price So Far

NANTUCKET -- Nantucket County Registry of Deeds records show seven property transfers recorded between Sept. 18 and Oct. 17, but only one carries a sale price so far: an Ash Street transaction valued at $9.1 million. The remaining six show no consideration amount, which typically means the figure has not yet reached the registry, a lag that usually clears within about a week of recording.

MARKET OVERVIEW

Seven sales were recorded in the period, but just one of them, 8 Ash Street, has a recorded price: $9,100,000. Because six of the seven transfers list no sale price, the dataset does not yet support a meaningful price range or median across the full set. Based on the single available figure, the only confirmed price point for the period is $9,100,000. Whether the broader period looks active or quiet cannot be assessed on price alone; by raw transaction count, seven recorded transfers occurred in one month.

TOP SALES

8 Ash Street (recorded as "8 Ash Street PLBK 25 PG 38") sold for $9,100,000 on Sept. 18. The seller was Block Bayou ACK LLC and the buyer was Eight Ash ACK LLC. No other sale in the period has a recorded price, so no further ranking is possible at this time. A second deed entry tied to 8 Ash Street, with the same seller, Block Bayou ACK LLC, was also recorded Sept. 18 without a listed price or named buyer; it is unclear from the data whether this reflects a related or separate transaction at the same address.

NEIGHBORHOOD BREAKDOWN

Ash Street: Two deed entries recorded at 8 Ash Street on the same date, both involving seller Block Bayou ACK LLC. One lists a $9.1 million sale price to buyer Eight Ash ACK LLC; the other lists no price or buyer. Okorwaw Avenue: 51 Okorwaw Avenue transferred from Okorwaw LLC to the town of Nantucket, with no price yet recorded. Hooper Farm Road: 38 Hooper Farm Road transferred from Riverview Crossing LLC to First Boston Construction Holdings LLC, with no price yet recorded. Somerset Road: 79 Somerset Road transferred from Citizens Bank N.A. to Ralph and Carrie Robertson, with no price yet recorded. Austin Farm Drive: 12 Austin Farm Drive was recorded with sellers Jennifer Shalley Allen and Michael Thomas Allen; no buyer or price is listed in the data. One additional transfer, with no address specified, moved from Philip D. and Dorothy W. Bartlett to the town of Nantucket, also without a recorded price.

MARKET NOTES

Two of the seven transfers in this period list the town of Nantucket as buyer: the unaddressed Bartlett-to-town transfer and 51 Okorwaw Avenue. The data does not indicate the purpose of either acquisition. The sale involving Citizens Bank N.A. as seller at 79 Somerset Road is consistent with a bank-owned or foreclosure-related transfer, though the deed record does not specify the nature of the prior ownership. Buyers and sellers in the period include a mix of individuals, LLCs, a bank and the town, but with only one recorded price, no price-per-square-foot or property-type pricing comparisons can be made this month. Bed, bath and square footage figures are not available from deed records for any of the seven transactions.
