About this home
Seller is motivated and open to creative financing. Built by renowned architect George C. Mason during the Gilded Age, 43 Old Beach Road is a rare coastal retreat just moments from the shoreline and Newport's vibrant harborfront. Rich in history, the home blends preserved architectural character with modern enhancements. The stately exterior, expansive grounds, and iconic three-story tower make a striking first impression. Inside, sun-filled spaces flow seamlessly, with high ceilings, crown molding, oversized windows, natural woodwork, and refined finishes throughout, ideal for both entertaining and everyday living. The gourmet kitchen features premium appliances, heated floors, custom cabinetry, and ample workspace. Spacious living and dining areas are complemented by private retreats, including a luxurious primary suite. Resort-style amenities include a private movie theater, sauna, wine cellar, and multi-room sound system. Outdoors, landscaped grounds offer inviting spaces for dining, lounging, and enjoying the coastal setting. Located minutes from Newport's beaches, Cliff Walk, dining, and historic attractions, this property offers a perfect balance of privacy, location, and timeless coastal luxury.
Old Beach, located between Easton’s Beach and Bellevue Avenue, is a coastal and residential Newport neighborhood with oceanfront cliffs and shingled cottages. The neighborhood’s character concentrates along Memorial Boulevard near the Cliff Walk entrance, where surf shops, casual cafés, and beach-day foot traffic set the tempo. The Cliff Walk frames daily routines with salt air and mansion backdrops, while side streets show classic New England porches and tidy gardens. The International Tennis Hall of Fame adds a polished cultural note a short walk inland. Easton’s Beach and its boardwalk keep the shoreline active from morning to dusk.
