Tucked within the beloved Avondale boating community - just moments from beautiful beaches & the quaint Village of Watch Hill - '52 Avondale Road' captures the spirit of coastal New England living in every season. Overlooking the serene Pawcatuck River and abutting the Avondale Farm Nature Preserve, this classic cedar-shingled home offers a true front-row seat to nature's quiet beauty. From your 2nd floor deck, the wrap-around 'rocking chair' front porch, or the cozy screened porch, watch swans and Canadian geese glide by, or see the hardy fishermen and boaters who cherish these calm fall waters. Inside, a welcoming fireplace, sunlit living spaces, and a chef's kitchen create the perfect gathering place after crisp afternoon walks to nearby marinas, boutiques, or the new American Impressionism museum. With three en-suite bedrooms opening to river-view porches, a bonus studio/bedroom above the heated three-car garage, and timeless craftsmanship throughout, this residence is equally suited for cozy off-season living or summer celebrations. Whether as a weekend/summer retreat or a year-round sanctuary, '52 Avondale Road' offers rare comfort, elegance, and connection to nature in one of Westerly's most picturesque settings. Perfectly situated between NYC & Boston via Amtrak/I-95, or the local jet-capable airport. A rare opportunity to own a beautifully maintained home w/ timeless style, modern amenities, & postcard-worthy water views. Book your appointment today!

MDR-30
Medium-Density Residential 30 District
The Medium-Density Residential 20 Zoning Districts are generally intended for single-family neighborhoods adjacent to high-density areas. These zoning districts are designed to conform to existing development patterns rather than encourage major expansions beyond defined neighborhoods. Most areas within this district are connected to municipal water but not to municipal sewers. Specific provision is provided for alternative residential development of certain property of substantial size in the R-30 Zoning District.
