First time ever offered, this quintessential Little Compton waterfront estate captures the essence of coastal New England living. Privately set on 3.5 acres, the 5-bedroom, 2.5-bath residence enjoys sweeping views across the river to St. George’s School and south to the Sakonnet Lighthouse, with a private path leading directly to the beach. Included in the offering is an adjacent 2.27-acre water view lot at 17 Cole Road (Plat 5, Lot 34), presenting a rare opportunity to create a multi-generational compound or expand your coastal vision. Designed for both gathering and retreat, the home features an expansive living room with fireplace and French doors that open to manicured lawns and the shoreline beyond. An oversized dining room – also with French doors – flows seamlessly to the outdoors and connects to the living room and butler’s pantry, creating an ideal setting for entertaining. Rich in character, the home showcases historic details reflective of its era, offering warmth, charm, and timeless appeal. A truly special property in one of Rhode Island’s most treasured seaside communities.
