The Flower Cottage Formerly the headquarters of The Newport Botanical Gardens and once a shop known as The Flower Bungalow, this delightful home enjoys a rich association with Newport’s horticultural history.

A welcoming entry gives way to the spacious living room and cozy den, both with fireplaces. The newly remodeled kitchen benefits from granite counters, a Sub-Zero refrigerator, a Wolf range, and a wet bar. The lovely garden patio is easily accessed from both the formal dining room and kitchen. The two first level and three second level bedrooms offer comfortable accommodations for family and guests. The property is further enhanced by lush mature grounds, brick walkways and patios, and a two car garage.
