About This Home
As of December 2025Endless Coastal Possibilities! Nestled directly on the bay front, this unique two unit home offers the ultimate waterfront lifestyle with its own private dock and panoramic views across the harbor. Brimming with coastal charm, the property has been lovingly maintained and thoughtfully updated while preserving the character of its original beach-house roots. Currently enjoyed as a four bedroom, four bath, single multi-generational home, the flexible two-unit layout provides endless options — live in one and host family or guests in the other, create an income opportunity, or reimagine the space into your dream waterfront retreat. Both levels capture the sparkle of the bay, with inviting living areas that open to patios ideal for lounging, dining, and taking in the gentle harbor breeze. Parking is a breeze with an attached two car garage. Clean, bright, and move-in ready, this is a rare chance to own a piece of classic Newport waterfront where you can step off your dock and onto your boat, paddle board, or kayak in seconds. Whether kept as a cherished family getaway or transformed into something new, this bay front gem celebrates the timeless spirit of coastal living.
