A rural, yet convenient section of central Cumberland
Lippitt Estates offers the suburban convenience of living in northern Rhode Island close to the Massachusetts border. “The main drive for Cumberland is the suburban town feel and the convenience. It’s a pretty close-knit community and we’re pretty centralized, so it’s super convenient to get to the highway, with all the amenities around it,” says Steven Jacques, a Cumberland local and Coldwell Banker Realtor with nearly a decade of experience. The town also has well-regarded schools and lower taxes compared to other parts of the state. “This area is really desirable, too, because it’s rural, but the homes have been getting upgraded, and new homes are being developed,” Jacques says.
Lippitt Estates means Suburban living at its finest, just minutes from the Massachusetts border in northern Rhode Island.
Lippitt Estates offers the perfect balance of suburban comfort and rural charm, with spacious homes and a peaceful, countryside atmosphere.

A wide variety of housing styles
The neighborhood is an eclectic mix of Colonial Revivals, classic New England farmhouses, Cape Cods, split-levels and raised ranch-style homes. Most sit on lots of at least a quarter-acre. Prices range between about $390,000 and $700,000, though large homes with several acres of land around them can sell for over $1 million. Trees grow so thick on both sides of the narrow, winding streets that their canopies often meet over the road. “There are a lot of cliffs and ridges in this part of Cumberland, so you get houses on hills that look out over the woods and farmland,” Jacques says. Some properties also overlook Little Pond, a small, fishable lake.
This stunning Lippitt Estates home offers peaceful lake views right from your doorstep.

Hiking on nearby nature preserves and around Cumberland Public Library
The Cumberland Land Trust maintains over 50 acres of natural land in the Otis Smith Farm and Rowbottom Preserve properties. Trails, each about a mile long, loop through both areas. The Otis Farm, accessible from Scott Road, meanders past the original 1820 house and barn, which are still privately owned. Cumberland Public Library is a couple miles away, housed in an early 20th-century Trappist Abbey and surrounded by wooded hiking trails. The library hosts community events, like book club meetings, youth volunteer programs and weekly story times.
Escape into nature at the Lippitt Estates Conservation Area, where quiet trails and natural beauty are just steps from home.

Commuting to Providence and Boston
Providence is less than 20 miles south. The state capital is a major regional employer. Commuter rail service to Boston, another big regional employer, is available in Providence and Attleboro, just across the Massachusetts border. The 11-mile drive to Attleboro Station usually takes 20 minutes if there’s no traffic on Interstate 295. “It’s about an hour drive to Boston if you’re going between 10 and 2, but if you go between 6 and 9, a.m. or p.m., good luck with the traffic,” Jacques says. Lippitt Estates’s CAP Index crime score is 1 out of 10, lower than the national average of 4.
The MBTA Attleboro Station, minutes from Monastery Heights, RI, offers easy travel options.
