Hollywood Farm is truly an island gem. Built in the 1870's, it was owned by the well-known Nantucket Starbuck and Swain families. In 1908, Fred Maglathlin purchased the property, dubbed it “Hollywood Farm” and ran it successfully for 75 years. It was the largest working farm on the island. Today over 200 abutting acres are owned by Nantucket Conservation Foundation. The present property now includes the original farmhouse and barn, a charming one bedroom guest cottage, a separate music studio, a lovely fenced-in perennial garden and mature plantings which create a private and enjoyable setting. As a result, the property now combines old Nantucket charm with modern conveniences - a rare opportunity to own a piece of the historical Nantucket countryside.
