    Welcome to The Hedges — Newport Living at Its Finest Built in the 1870s as a grand single-family mansion and thoughtfully converted into eight luxury condominium residences in the 1980s, The Hedges is one of Newport's most distinguished addresses.

Both bathrooms have been completely renovated with granite countertops, and the luxurious primary bath features a relaxing air tub. Additional highlights include in-unit washer/dryer, central AC, central vacuum, and basement storage. Residents enjoy dedicated parking in the building's charming cobblestone lot. Off the living room, step out onto your private low-maintenance Azek deck overlooking the tranquil surroundings of the beautifully landscaped grounds. Offered fully furnished and move-in ready — steps from the Cliff Walk, Gilded Age Mansions, Bellevue Avenue, and Newport's vibrant waterfront.
