A rare opportunity to own a piece of paradise in one of Rhode Island’s most cherished coastal communities. Nestled in a private setting on over half an acre, this charming cottage offers the quintessential Quonnie lifestyle, with the extraordinary benefit of a private dock on saltwater Quonochontaug Pond. Spanning more than 700 acres and connected to the ocean by a breachway, Quonochontaug Pond is renowned for boating, kayaking, paddleboarding, tubing, clamming, and fishing. From your own dock, venture out by boat to explore Block Island, Fishers Island, Montauk, and beyond. Enjoy coveted Quonnie East Beach privileges, membership opportunities with QEBA/Central tennis, and all that this special coastal community has to offer. A survey is available, and a CRMC (Coastal Resources Management Council) preliminary determination is pending to further define the building envelope—offering a canvas of an exciting opportunity to envision and create your own future retreat. With the rare combination of Quonnie East Beach access, expansive saltwater pond frontage, private dock---this is a truly exceptional opportunity to create the ultimate coastal escape in one of Rhode Island’s most desirable destinations. It’s no wonder so many people love to call Quonnie home.
