Why Live in Kay-Catherine

Kay-Catherine in Newport is a historic neighborhood known for its Victorian, Colonial, and Greek Revival homes, many designed by renowned architects like Richard Morris Hunt and the McKim Mead & White firm. The area, once a summer retreat for writers and socialites, is now a sought-after residential enclave. Homes here sit on larger lots with sidewalks shaded by Black Cherry and Red Maple trees, and some old mansions have been converted into multi-family units. The neighborhood's walkability is a key feature, with downtown Newport and Bellevue Avenue's shops just a 10 to 15-minute walk away. Residents enjoy proximity to the water, fostering a strong sailing community, and can easily visit Easton Beach, known locally as First Beach, which offers soft sand, food trucks, and a playground. Although there are no parks within Kay-Catherine, Braga Park is a short 3-mile drive away, providing open fields, a basketball court, and a small baseball field. The Cliff Walk, a 3.5-mile coastal hiking path, is also nearby. The Newport News Public School District serves the area, with Pell Elementary, Frank E. Thompson Middle School, and Rogers High School, which is noted for its JROTC program. Public transportation is available through the Rhode Island Transportation Authority, and the TF Green Rhode Island International Airport is 26 miles away via Route 138. For daily needs, residents shop at Shaw's supermarket or local convenience stores like Leo's Market. The dining scene is vibrant, with popular spots like the Black Pearl and Clarke Cookhouse offering coastal views and fresh seafood.
