Property Description

Historic Kay-Catherine area – 2-bedroom, 3-bed charmer – minutes from everything! A third-floor, 2-bedroom, 3-bed, 1.5-bath nautical condo in an unbeatable Newport location—steps from iconic Bellevue Avenue, the vibrant Broadway district, and minutes from Thames Street! This wayfarer's retreat showcases original hardwood floors, six skylights, a dedicated parking space, and three bikes. The layout includes a spacious living room with canted ceilings, a bright sunroom with views of the Newport Pell Bridge, a galley kitchen, and a dining table for six. Two separate entrances and shared outdoor space with a BBQ complete the home. My sister and I bought this condo five years ago and have loved every minute here! Our neighborhood is magical—filled with the best people and close to everything. With the USA 250th anniversary on July 4th, Newport will be in full celebration mode! Jane Pickens Theatre, music, shopping, Nitro Brew, and top-rated restaurants are all a short walk to Broadway. Thames Street is just 15 minutes away. Grab the Water Taxi at Perotti Park for Fort Adams or the Block Island/Jamestown Ferries for day trips (bikes welcome). Walk 5 minutes to the Viking Hotel for the free hop-on/off shuttle to the mansions, local beaches, the Tennis Center, and more—the driver can drop you back at our condo. We hope you enjoy our home!
