LOCATION
Nestled along the tip of Rhode Island's southwestern
coastline, the historic village of Watch Hill enjoys a
picturesque setting of broad beaches, sheltered
deepwater harbors and sparkling ocean waters. The area
offers excellent boating, sailing, and fishing along
with many private and public golf clubs. Watch Hill is
approximately 100 miles from Boston and 140 miles from
New York City.
PROPERTY
Located off a quiet tree-lined lane, this beguiling 1920's
stucco cottage is tucked away on a private setting
overlooking a beautiful saltwater cove. The property is
ideally situated within easy walking distance of Watch
Hill's alluring beaches as well as its historic
blocklong business area which is filled with interesting
shops and charming restaurants. This secluded property
features over 150 feet of direct water frontage, a dock,
two moorings, and wonderfully expansive water views
across Foster Cove and out to sparkling Little
Narragansett Bay. The property also includes an
in-ground pool which is sheltered by handsome mature
plantings and is ideally sited to enjoy the great water
vistas.
RESIDENCE
Upon entering the home one is greeted by a delightfully
spacious living room enhanced with a massive cut stone
fireplace. Directly adjoining the living room is a
marvelously airy enclosed sunroom which is connected by
French doors to an elegant dining room that also has its
own fireplace. A bright old fashioned kitchen with a
separate entrance, traditional pantry and an enclosed
breakfast porch rounds out the first floor where all of
the rooms enjoy the pleasing benefits of looking
directly out onto the shimmering cove, where waterfowl
from egrets to great herons abound.
The second floor is composed of a gracious central
hallway that leads in one direction to a master bedroom
which includes a large fireplace and an adjoining full
bath; and in the other direction to three guest bedrooms
along with two full baths. All the bedrooms have
wonderful views of the saltwater cove.
The basement features a one-car garage, a laundry room,
a furnace room, and a very large storage area.
