Charming and full of character—this coastal cottage in the heart of downtown Hill & Harbor is a one-of-a-kind find! Just one block from lively Main Street, it sits on a sunny corner lot with an oversized, landscaped yard, crushed stone driveway, and a delightful enclosed garden with raised beds for your favorite herbs and veggies. Inside, details like historic wide plank hardwoods tell the story of the home's historic nature, while top-to-bottom renovations bring ease to modern living. A brand-new natural gas heating system, young roof, freshly painted exterior, updated mechanicals, and a stunning great room addition offer comfort with style. The first floor is flexible and welcoming, with multiple cozy living areas, a dining room, and a fully equipped pass-through kitchen that flows into the light-filled addition—perfect for entertaining or relaxing. Two full bathrooms (one on each floor), first-floor laundry, and a bulkhead-accessible basement check the practical boxes. Upstairs, two spacious bedrooms with generous closets share a bright, updated bath. Catch peekaboo views of Greenwich Bay year-round from the classic farmer’s porch—ideal for morning coffee or sunset cocktails. Brimming with character inside and out, this home is a true sanctuary in one of East Greenwich’s most walkable, vibrant neighborhoods.
