About this home

This lovely 1960's 3 bedroom, 3 bath classic Raised Ranch cottage with a 2 car garage - is perched up high on a 9,000 sq. ft. landscaped lot in the very popular Fifth Ward. It’s set back from the tree lined street and greets you with a stunning stone wall terraced front yard - a dazzling layout of pathways, shrubbery, plants and flowers. Enter the 1900 sq. ft. home and come upstairs to a sprawling living area with fireplace and a dramatic picture window overlooking the backyard oasis. A charming sunroom leads to the deck and backyard. The owner was one of Newport's master gardeners and created storybook stonewalled gardens - perfect for entertaining or an idyllic escape. Downstairs is semi-finished – with the 2-car garage; a work shop (or laundry) and a separate and fabulous guest-studio area with bath and a private entrance. Make this versatile space into whatever you can imagine. This home is ready for your touches - well maintained, and just across from Murphy Park and its big stone slide and a mere ½ mile from Gooseberry Beach, one of Travel & Leisure's Top 10 American beaches AND a straight shot 1-mile to the magnificent Breakers Mansion and Cliff Walk. This is an ESTATE SALE - seller prefers to sell AS IS.
