    What's special

    Just one block from Newport Harbor in the coveted Point neighborhood, the Henry Blevin House, circa 1789, is a beautifully restored Colonial blending historic character with modern updates and the rare advantage of being outside the flood zone. Inside, original wide-plank floors, restored windows and sun-filled rooms reflect more than two centuries of Newport history. The first floor features an elegant living room, inviting den with fireplace, and dining room with wood-burning fireplace and built-in bookshelves. A bright three-season sunroom opens toward the gardens. Upstairs, the primary suite is complemented by three additional bedrooms, including a private third-floor guest suite with full bath, ideal for guests, a home office or play space. Outside, a private fenced yard with lush gardens creates a city oasis. Unique garage doors open directly to the garden, perfect for entertaining and dining al fresco. A private driveway provides coveted off-street parking. Updated electrical systems and a tankless water heater add modern comfort while respecting the home's historic character. And then there is the lifestyle: walk to Battery Park for sunsets over Narragansett Bay, stroll to Elm Street Pier for a swim, boat pickup or waterfront access, or continue downtown for restaurants, shops and marinas. From mornings along the water to evenings in the garden, 47 Second Street offers Newport living at its best: historic, coastal and wonderfully walkable.
