About This Home
As of April 2022Enjoy tree top views from this penthouse unit in the tower of historic "Belair". Formerly the summer residence of The George H. Norman family, the home exudes gracious charm, with its abundant architectural detail and lush grounds. Locally renowned, Norman founded the Newport Water Works in 1877 and his daughter Mabel later donated their summer farm in Middletown to create the Norman Bird Sanctuary. The sparkling kitchen and two full baths are newly renovated with handsome flair. Warm and inviting the entire unit is flooded with light, while the bedroom suite on the top floor was formerly the home's artist studio. Condo improvements include a brand new slate roof and newly refitted elevator. An easy walk to the beach, Cliff Walk and all the restaurants, shops and attractions of Newport, this pied-à-terre is turn key.
