5 Payne Rd, Barrington, RI 02806

This property belongs in a magazine! Perched on a hill overlooking Narragansett Bay and just steps to the beach, this is one of Barrington's most admired homes. Originally built in 1870, this property underwent a total renovation in 2007. Step inside from the lovely wrap around porch and admire the many architectural details throughout. The entryway opens to a lovely living room with a fireplace, the hall leads to a formal dining room with a fireplace, built-ins and french doors to the porch. The granite kitchen offers stainless appliances and expands into an inviting family room with an informal eating area - perfect for entertaining. A gracious curved staircase leads to a second floor featuring a master suite with panoramic views, a balcony, a luxurious bath and double walk-in closets. There are three additional bedrooms - one with an en-suite bath and one with its own very special loft space any child would treasure. There is also a laundry room, an additional family bath and a back staircase leading down to the kitchen. The lower level offers a large recreation room as well as ample storage space. The professionally landscaped yard offers beautiful plantings, including hydrangea, perennials and an irrigation system. The private back patio is perfect for any summer evening while the veranda offers magnificent views - the perfect spot to watch the endless boating activity on Narragansett Bay.
