Child Street West offers peaceful living along the Kickemuit River
In the grand scheme of things, Child Street West is one of those neighborhoods that has a strategic location. It’s just south of downtown Warren, making it more residential than commercial – yet still with quick access to destinations that help you fulfill daily errands. It also faces the Kickemuit River on the east end, putting residents in contact with opportunities to enjoy natural spaces. But, as Realtor Elizabeth Kirk puts it, access to culture is another feature of this modest suburb. “Residents here in their free time are going to look for places where they can lounge and have a view, or stroll around and people watch, which is something Water Street in Warren can offer,” Kirk says. “The Blount Clam Shack is a popular go-to spot.” Tucked in between water and culture, Child Street West offers a quiet lifestyle without being too remote.

Child Street West has diverse homes, from cottages to modern builds
On the home front, Child Street West has a unique layout: it is neatly striped with streets running north-south, with naturalistic names like Oak Street and Bay Street. Housing stock here will be relatively modern, from the 70s and 80s. For example, you might find a contemporary Colonial situated on a quarter acre lot. Inside, these will have open concept layouts that are ideal for entertaining or grabbing waterfront views. Prices start in the upper $400,000s.
But if your search includes homes in the mid $600,000s, you can find a quintessential beach cottage, which despite the modest-sounding name, is really a multi-story home with classic wood shingle siding. Properties such as these can have comparatively large lots —such as a half-acre or more— and contain features like renovated interiors and docks leading to the waterfront.
