Just blocks from Washington Square, this 1790 colonial on Newports Historic Hill is filled with original appeal and 3 levels of elegant and practical updates.
Traditional clapboard, cedar shingles and 12-light windows underscore the style of Newports early architecture. Flanking the front door are a pair of exquisite, copper gas lamps by Bevolo which were installed during an exterior renovation in 2010. The first floor begins as a classic center-entrance colonial, with fireplaced formal living and dining rooms on either side of the foyer, and a powder room. Towards the back of the house, the layout has been updated to enlarge the kitchen, create a mudroom entrance at the rear door, and accommodate a sitting room; all with views of the gardens. The kitchen is of a simple design which compliments the home and fulfills current lifestyle needs in both style and function. Custom cabinetry and solid surface countertops, combine with a commercial-style DCS 48 range, stainless hood, refrigerator and dishwasher, with matching cabinetry in an ample adjacent pantry. The kitchen is a true living space with a built-in desk area, and room for a table in front of a fireplace.

Two additional large bedrooms, each with a fireplace, complete the second floor space.
