About This Home
As of June 2017This early 18th century Colonial is situated on The Point among original sea captain and shipwright houses. It boasts simple charm with gunstock-style post-and-beam construction, wide-plank floors and a walk-up attic suitable for an extra bedroom. It sits on a large lot with gardens, a brick walk and plenty of off-street parking in a neighborhood that's an easy walk to downtown Newport and the waterfront along Washington Street. A bright and sunny south-facing house with a cheerful and welcoming feel, it's currently a comfortable two-family that could easily be converted to a single-family.
