About This Home

Step into a piece of Newport's history with this beautifully restored 19th-century carriage house, built in the late 1800s by the great-grandfather of the present owner and cherished through four generations of family ownership. Located in the heart of the historic Kay Street neighborhood, this 1-bedroom, 1-bathroom gem blends timeless elegance with modern amenities. The carriage house once served as the home of Newport's first transportation company, providing carriage service from the Wharf to the hotels on Bellevue Avenue, adding a unique legacy to this charming residence. Fully furnished and welcoming to a variety of renters, this property offers an unparalleled living experience just steps from Bellevue Avenue's Gilded Age mansions, downtown Newport's vibrant shops, and the iconic Cliff Walk.
