About this House
MISQUAMICUT BEACHFRONT !! This well-loved Misquamicut cottage situated on .42 of an acre of beachfront offers something increasingly rare---the opportunity to create your own vision at the shore. The beachfront cottage has been cherished by the same family for many years and has enjoyed a successful history as a rental . Imagine morning coffee, sunset cocktails, or casual outdoor dining after a day at the beach while overlooking the ocean, with views extending toward Block Island, Montauk and beyond. More than simply a beach house, this is an opportunity to take a cherished piece of Misquamicut and make it your own. Think of the existing cottage as a canvas—not defined by what it is today, but by what it could become. Bring your vision, explore the possibilities, and create a one-of-a-kind coastal escape in one of Rhode Island’s most sought-after beach locations.

7/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageWesterly Rhode Island is one of the wealthiest towns in Rhode Island. It is indeed both frustrating and sad that we have one of the worst school systems in Rhode Island. This middle school demonstrates such a disdain for students with learning disabilities that they will leave you wondering if you should homeschool, move to a different district or just pay up for the private school.Parent Review7y ago - Dunn's Corners School
