About This Home
Set in Newport's Yachting Village, this late 19th-century home has been thoroughly renovated with a clear respect for its original character. Behind the classic shingle exterior, major systems have been addressed; Icynene insulation, Anderson windows, heating, electrical, plumbing systems are all updated, offering the comfort of new construction within a historic footprint. Original douglas fir floors bring warmth and authenticity throughout, complemented by thoughtfully selected hardware that feels consistent with the home's era and pedigree. The kitchen is both practical and well-executed, featuring BlueStar appliances, clean cabinetry, and finishes that balance classic and modern without chasing trends. Updated bathrooms include tiled showers as well as a tub. Natural light fills the home, and the floor plan is efficient and easy to live in. Located just steps from Newport's harbor, shops, and restaurants, this is a well-executed renovation in one of the city's most established neighborhoods.
