    What's special

    A rare opportunity to live on Newport's famed Historic Hill! Walking distance to downtown, marinas, the beach, and a rare two-car garage. Beautifully rebuilt in 2016, this 18th century home (the original Isaac & Elizabeth Sherman home, for which Sherman Street is named) offers sophisticated living and magnificent architectural features while retaining its character and history. It boasts a formal entrance and a captivating large, sun-filled, atrium-style kitchen and dining area. Four bedrooms and three full bathrooms, with the option of a first-floor bedroom suite and a true master suite with a gas fireplace on the second. The fully finished third floor can be used as an office, recreation room or au pair/guest space. In addition, this home has five to six parking spaces, a total of four working fireplaces, a covered porch, a grilling porch, and private professionally landscaped backyard and gardens. Original details seamlessly blended with modern amenities make this an ideal home for entertaining and in-town living. Located steps to Washington Square, downtown Newport, Bellevue Avenue, and the International Tennis Hall of Fame, it's easy to leave your car at home and walk everywhere. Potential to be sold furnished.
