Experience the allure of Newport's historical charm at 23 Willow Street, where a storied 19th-century sea captain's home awaits.

This majestic property in The Point neighborhood offers a rare opportunity to own a piece of Rhode Island's rich maritime heritage. Just under 2,000 sq ft with 5 beds & 3 full-baths. From original wide-plank wood floors to distinctive architectural details, this house exudes an authentic old-world ambiance. Entertain guests or enjoy solitude in the picturesque secret garden, complete with a Belgian-block patio. The added convenience of a 2-car driveway is a prized feature in this historic area.
