Walk to harbor and town from cheerful and elegant Pen Craig Cottage. Once part of the prestigious "Pen Craig", this recently renovated estate is an Eden of luxurious privacy and elegance, featuring 1.6 acres of sun-drenched lawn, complimented by natural rock outcroppings and plantings from the office of Frederick Law Olmsted. Ideally situated close to clubs and town, this estate offers excellent rental potential. Move in ready and energy efficient. While the impeccably maintained interior inspires you to appreciate classic Newport elegance, such as a vanishing service door in the dining room, a wonderful paneled library featuring an elevator named "Sedgwick" to take you to the second floor, fireplaces in almost every room, and multiple porches, the new features are just as elegant. The seamless 2 story addition, designed by an award winning architect, is a generous two car garage and mud room leading to a state of the art cook's kitchen. The generous master bedroom wing is ensuite with generous closets, laundry and a sitting room. Completing the second floor are 3 large ensuite guestrooms. Additional guest space is on the third floor. Close to town, clubs and ocean beaches, Pen Craig Cottage is sanctuary in one of the most beautiful areas of Newport. .Sale is subject to administrative subdivision from 3.74 acre estate. Taxes and assessment represent the 3.74 acres and will change after subdivision.
