This 1850 home is brimming with original character and charm. The moment you drive up the tree-lined driveway you know you are in a special place. The 100 year old copper beach and maple trees provide a sense of history and maturity to the property. The exterior of the home is a beachy cottage style and creates a welcoming first impression. The heart of the home is the oversized farmhouse kitchen, with original solid wood cabinets, exposed brick and a nickel washboard sink. The kitchen has vaulted ceilings, exposed wood beams and skylights that provide natural light. Carrera marble and soapstone counter tops and SS appliances. There are cast iron sinks in both the butler's pantry and laundry room. The home has generously sized rooms with oversized windows that afford abundant natural light. Every room provides sweeping views of the expansive property, stone walls, peekaboo views of the ocean in winter and year round views of the Newport bridge. Adding to the charm are nine sets of French doors, five separating the main living spaces and four sets leading to the ample sized front and rear stone terraces, and two covered porches providing an entertainers dream with easy flow from inside to outside. The enclosed wrap around porch exemplifies the feeling of indoor/outdoor living with its floor to ceiling windows. This picturesque property is a blissful retreat from the demands of modern life, yet located only minutes from Narragansett beach, highway access and the train station.
