NEW PRICE! This classic New England Cape beach house, built in 1935, is nestled on a dune and located between Watch Hill & Weekapaug. Set on a 1.42-acre lot with 200 feet of pristine Misquamicut beachfront and breathtaking views of Block Island Sound, this property is ready for renovation, with engineering feasibility confirmed by DiPrete Engineering. The home is set atop a dune with a massive rock formation that affords maximum flood protection - flood insurance is $1350/yr and transferable. Deeded "ownership in common" of two large parcels abutting Winnapaug Pond. Whether you're looking for a permanent residence or a vacation getaway, this beachfront gem is a rare find.
