Property Description
On a quiet corner in Newport's historic Point neighborhood, the c. 1760 John Frye House joins two period homes into about 3,242 square feet across three stories. Its colonial character has been carefully kept and thoughtfully updated.
Original paneling, masonry fireplaces and old wood floors bring history into every room, while cathedral ceilings and skylights fill it with light. A formal living room, a cozy den and a designer kitchen with a large island and wine fridge open to the dining room. There are four bedrooms, four full baths and a powder room. A third-floor great room with a bar is ideal for guests or play.
Outside, a fenced courtyard garden and patio offer a private retreat. A paved driveway, guest parking and an EV space are rare finds in the Point. Central air and gas heat add modern comfort.
Wander lantern-lit lanes lined with one of the country's finest collections of colonial homes, with the waterfront steps away. Downtown Newport is a short walk: the wharves, Thames Street shops, Washington Square and harbor restaurants. Enjoy sunset on the bay, dinner in town and a quiet walk home.
A rare chance to own a piece of Newport history in one of its most beloved neighborhoods.
