About This Home
As of July 2021Presenting Bristol's treasured and architecturally significant Herreshoff designed estate on 1.8 acres of beautiful west facing waterfront on Walker's Cove. Designed by Norman Herreshoff in 1937, "Ferryboat" is one of the first Bauhaus inspired residences built in New England.
Sited on 1.8 private acres of lush lawn and specimen trees, this iconic property is designed to capture expansive views of Narragansett Bay, Bristol Harbor and the private Walker's Island, which acts as a natural buffer. The simple Bauhaus style features clean architectural lines, generous glass walls and thoughtful spaces, creating a seamless synthesis of indoor and outdoor living. Generous decks on each side of the second level bedroom suites are a delightful surprise. A thorough renovation by its current owners was completed in 2018, and features state of the art, efficient upgrades including new windows, a spacious garage wired for an electric car charger, an automatic standby generator, new HVAC, and much more. Custom mahogany and cherry were used throughout, honoring the Herreshoff legacy. Patios were improved to include an outdoor kitchen to serve the comfortable outdoor living space.
The expansive lawn is framed by a collection of exquisite mature specimen trees which enhance the beautiful view and provide outstanding privacy. This magical property includes a private dock and mooring for your yachting enjoyment. Minutes to Newport, with easy highway access. Rare offering.
