Property Description
Enjoy your morning coffee or the gentle breeze of a summer afternoon while taking in views of beautiful Jamestown Harbor from the large front porch of this classic Shoreby Hill "cottage". Built in 1912, "Villa Tranquilla" sits on a large double lot, just a walk from the village with its charming shops, restaurants and marina. This gracious colonial has lovely period details, well-proportioned rooms, and a quiet stateliness. With a large fireplace as its centerpiece, the spacious living room is perfect for entertaining. A light-filled dining room, small sitting room, kitchen and half bath complete the first floor. The generous staircase, leads to the second floor, where you will find a master suite, two additional bedrooms and study, all with water-views, as well as two additional baths and a fourth bedroom. High ceilings and diamond upper windows add period charm. A small back staircase leads to an enormous attic, perfect for storage or a home office.
This home is perfectly sited, with a large side and back yard, and plenty of privacy. The kitchen and baths are in need of updating, but there are so many possibilities for this wonderful property!
Jamestown, known as "the Jewel of Narragansett Bay" offers a serene way of life, beautiful nature, vibrant arts community, and easy access to Newport and Providence.
