Property Description

This timeless waterfront cottage offers a private dock and exceptional views across Tiverton Basin and down the Sakonnet River. Built in 1930 and lovingly preserved, the property has changed hands only twice and offers a unique opportunity to own a piece of the area’s waterfront history. The four-bedroom, two-bath cottage captures the timeless charm of a classic summer retreat, with original heart pine floors, beadboard detailing, whitewashed walls, and an inviting outdoor shower. A thoughtful renovation completed in 2015 enhanced the property while preserving its character, including new cedar shingles and a cedar roof with copper gutters, a renovated kitchen, updated bathrooms, new Pella sliders and doors, Ipe decking, a bluestone patio, and a cobblestone-lined shell driveway. Southern exposure fills the property with natural light, while the generous side yard provides plenty of space to relax, entertain, and enjoy the waterfront setting. Step onto the private dock for a morning swim, set sail across the harbor, dig for clams at low tide, or cruise by boat to the Boathouse for lunch. With its unobstructed water views, private dock, classic architectural details, and beautifully maintained grounds, this is a property that evokes a bygone era while offering the comforts of today. And yet, Newport is just 20 minutes away and downtown Boston approximately 60 minutes.
