Property Description

This is a rare opportunity to own two historic homes in Newport’s oldest waterfront community, the beloved “Historic Point” neighborhood. Residents enjoy quick, walkable access to all that Newport offers, along with two waterfront public parks and several public water-access causeways. The Baxter and Gladding cottages—both dating to the mid-nineteenth century—are connected by a shared breezeway that also features its own street entrance through a fenced front yard. Each two-bedroom home has a separate front door and access to a private backyard. Utilities and kitchens have been updated, and each house is equipped with mini-split HVAC for modern climate control in addition to Navien systems. Multi-family zoning allows for flexibility regarding owner occupied rental or single family living. Schedule an appointment to view this uncommon offering and experience a remarkable location rooted in Newport’s early history.
