At the mouth of Narragansett Bay – named a Top 12 world adventure destination by National Geographic – Newport is a picturesque seaside town well known for its world-class sailing, US Naval heritage, and Gilded Age mansions. Residents and visitors appreciate Newport’s beautifully preserved classic Colonial architecture, breathtaking New England landscapes, unique culinary flair, irresistible coastal charm, and a multitude of ways to enjoy the surrounding water. Daily train service to and from Boston and New York make Newport an especially appealing retreat to residents in those areas.

This stunning, light-filled Historic Colonial at 39 Elm Street is less than a block from Newport Harbor and easy water access. A masterful renovation of this home by Kirby/Perkins Construction preserved all of its original charm while seamlessly incorporating modern conveniences and sophisticated style.
