Jamestown Village Houses for Sale

Jamestown Village, nestled along Narragansett Bay, is a classic New England beach community with a secluded island feel. The neighborhood features narrow, tree-lined roads and homes dating from the late 1800s to the 1920s, including gambrel farmhouses, saltbox-style homes, and Cape Cod cottages on quarter-acre lots. Oceanfront properties often include Victorian homes and multi-gable shingle-style dwellings with private beach access. The area is quieter than nearby Newport, with less traffic and a strong second home market. Residents enjoy 35 public shoreline access points, including the popular Mackerel Cove Beach, which is lifeguard-protected in summer and ideal for kayaking year-round. The Conanicut Yacht Club offers moorings, boat launch services, and hosts the annual Around the Island Race. Recreational options include the Jamestown Community Playground, Fort Wetherill State Park with its hiking trails and scuba diving spots, and the 9-hole Jamestown Golf Course. Children attend the highly rated Melrose Avenue School and Lawn Avenue School, with high school options at North Kingstown High School and Narragansett High School. Narragansett Avenue, the main thoroughfare, is lined with local businesses like Curiosity & Co. bookstore and East Ferry Market & Deli. For groceries, residents shop at McQuade’s Marketplace, with larger stores 5 miles away at RK Newport Towne Center. The neighborhood is accessible via Rhode Island Route 138 and the Newport Bridge, with ferry services to Newport available from May to September.
