    What's special

    Townhouse-style unitPrivate shaded backyardHistoric charm
    Presenting 17 Dearborn Street, The Owen Greelish House. Located just three doors off Thames Street in the heart of Newport’s iconic Yachting Village. This is a rare opportunity to own a property that blends historic charm, location, and untapped potential in one of the most walkable and vibrant neighborhoods in town. Surrounded by celebrated restaurants, boutique shops, the harbor, and Newport’s legendary summer scene, this address places you at the center of it all. Currently configured as a legal two-family, the property presents an ideal canvas for a single-family conversion. The layout includes a first-floor flat with two bedrooms and one full bath, while the second and third floors are a townhouse-style unit with the potential to expand further by dormering the top level. The home currently features separate utilities and in-unit laundry for each floor, along with a private, shaded backyard that provides a quiet escape just moments from the action. In a market where walkability, location, and lifestyle drive long-term value, this address is one to consider. Opportunities like this rarely come to market especially in such a prime setting.
