About This Home

As of May 2025

"The Harry Payne Whitney Carriage House" is sited on a prime lot, just off Bellevue Avenue and Scenic Ocean Drive. This former Tudor style carriage house built in 1897 offers over 9,000 square feet of endless potential. Designed by renowned New York City architect George A. Freeman for the influential businessman, philanthropist, and equestrian Harry Payne Whitney, the property was built to complement Mr. and Mrs. Whitney's Bellevue estate -"The Reefs" now gone. Currently zoned a four -family dwelling, 173-175 Coggeshall presents an exciting opportunity for a creative buyer to restore, repurpose, or reimagine the space. The facade is the defining characteristic of this property. Overlooking the picturesque Almy Pond, 173-175 Coggeshall is outside the historic district area, thus providing flexibility for transformation or new construction. This special property is a blank canvas awaiting the vision of a discerning buyer. The possibilities here are truly limitless. Survey is available to clarify lot usage. There are views of Almy Pond from the first floor and even better views of Almy Pond and the Atlantic Ocean from the second floor. 173 -175 Coggeshall is near historic Ocean Drive and downtown Newport is in the other direction. Please do not walk the property without listing agent.
