Spend the summer on Historic Hill, steps from Bellevue Avenue, the beach, harbor, shops and numerous restaurants. Meticulously designed, renovated and enlarged over the past few years, this home has exquisite furnishings and artwork which blend seamlessly within the contemporary and classic design. The chef's kitchen features mahogany countertops and an enormous quartz-topped island large enough to spread out nautical charts. The Frigidaire refrigerator and freezer leave plenty of space to stock and prepare meals. The open floor plan allows for comfortable entertaining. The dining room features a Sheraton sideboard with ample space for buffet dishes and a double pedestal table that extends to seat 10. The formal living room has a beautiful fireplace surrounded by shelving. Rounding out the first floor are high ceilings, hardwood floors of oak and original pine, a lavette and full bath. In addition, step from the kitchen down to the lower level which features a room that can be used as a fifth bedroom or den with a full bath, giving the home additional private living space. Step from the den through the sliding glass doors out onto the deck and private patio landscaped with bluestone hardscaping, flowering bushes and surrounded by evergreens. The three-car driveway can be accessed from the yard and there are views of the Newport Bridge and harbor area from here. This is a monthly rental for August 2023. The house is also available in July 2023 and for fall/winter 2023-24.
