Tucked between Middletown’s 2nd Beach—just follow the hidden path—and Newport’s 1st Beach, where you can easily pick up lunch along the way, 31 Loring Street offers the perfect setting for a year-round home or a relaxing beach getaway. This inviting 2-bedroom, 2-bath home features an open floor plan designed for easy living and entertaining. A cozy pellet stove takes the chill out of cooler days, while mini-splits keep the home comfortable during the warmer months. The current owner has enjoyed this special property for nearly 17 years, making thoughtful improvements along the way. Most recently, the old driveway was removed and replaced, and the front and back steps were realigned. Many of the exterior elements and mechanical systems have also been improved over the years. Inside, the home has been freshly painted in a neutral palette, creating a clean backdrop for the next owner to add their own style. The yard is just the right size—large enough for a vegetable garden, flowers, or outdoor entertaining, yet manageable enough to enjoy without becoming a chore. A wonderful variety of birds also makes this private setting their home. After a day at the beach, rinse off in the outdoor shower, relax on the deck, or gather around the fire pit in the private backyard. It’s a setting made for summer evenings and easy coastal living. Whether you're looking for a full-time residence, weekend retreat, or vacation getaway, 31 Loring Street is a property worth discovering.
