About this House

Built in 1743 by Captain John Rousse, this pristine example of colonial architecture was painstakingly restored in 2011 by the current owners. Nothing was overlooked during the restoration; all original beams were exposed, the chimneys were lined with stainless steel and lines were connected for gas log sets, all mechanicals were replaced entirely with the latest technology for safety and efficiency. The home boasts two off-street parking spaces, four fireplaces, a generous mater suite and rooms for guests, as well as a chef's kitchen and a dining room. The cosy living room and family room are wonderful spots to relax and spend time with friends and family. Enjoy the serenity of the private garden [50'x75'] oasis that is comprised of a blue stone patio [18'x36'] with a seating wall for party guests to enjoy and a custom built loft shed [11'x14'] with attached outdoor shower. This ideal Point location is close enough to the center of Newport to walk to shopping and restaurants, but quiet enough to enjoy a private weekend at home.

    "It’s a lovely neighborhood. Mainly an older crowd, not too many young children. Very dog friendly, and friendly in general. All colonial homes, the owners take great care of their properties. "

    "I used to live nearby and work in the historic district of Newport. I cannot recommend the Point as a great place to live and Willow Street in particular. It is not in the flood zone and is a few feet away from a driftway overlooking the Goat Island lighthouse"
