About this home

Discover timeless elegance at 50 Old Beach Road, #8, in Historic Belair. Built in 1850 as a summer house for New York oil baron H. Allen Wright, this grand estate showcases exquisite architectural details both inside and out. Originally constructed in the Italianate style with roughly dressed stone, the property was expanded and renovated in 1867 by renowned Newport architect Dudley Newton after being sold to George Henry Norman. This first-floor, single-level condominium is a perfect pied- -terre in one of Newport's best locations. Walk to Bellevue Avenue's vibrant shops and restaurants, the historic Redwood Library, and The Newport Art Museum. The 1-bedroom, 1.5-bath unit offers unparalleled character and formerly served as the estate's billiards room. The condo exudes warmth with its mahogany paneled walls, 13' coffered wooden ceilings, and abundant natural light from large pane windows on the north and east sides. Original details such as oversized doors, ornate woodwork, and hardwood floors add to the unit's historic allure. Modern amenities include Fujitsu Mini-split systems in the living room and bedroom for efficient heating and cooling. A private entrance with adjacent parking completes this unique offering. Embrace the rich history, convenience, and serenity of living at Belair. This exceptional condo offers the perfect blend of historic charm and modern convenience in the heart of Newport.
