Touisset Highlands offers peaceful living along the Kickemuit River
Touisset Highlands is a small sliver of a neighborhood facing the Kickemuit River. As a cove community right at the mouth of Mount Hope Bay, it has an exclusive reputation without feeling entirely remote from the outside world. The area was once developed as a summer retreat, but it has since transitioned to a year-round neighborhood. “This is a great place to live because you’re not far from Warren,” says Elizabeth Kirk, a Realtor with Lila Delman Compass. “You’ll see older housing stock, but it has been renovated. It’s very quaint.” Touisset Highlands is the kind of place where you can nest down with some privacy, but you’re never too far from the action.

There are only 54 homes in the neighborhood, so buyers looking here might need to be patient as they wait for a home to come on the market.
