Nestled along the pristine shores of the Atlantic Ocean, this beachfront property offers a rare and exquisite living experience. Located at the eastern end of Easton's Beach, the Land Trust Cottages form a compound of five charming shingle-style homes, built in the 1880s, each carefully designed to capture the breathtaking views of the Cliff Walk and the vast expanse of the Atlantic. Thanks to the visionary work of Frederick Law Olmsted, the renowned landscape architect behind Central Park in New York Olmsted's expertise is evident in the strategic positioning of each house, ensuring that residents enjoy the best possible vistas of Easton’s Point and the iconic Cliff Walk. This 4-bedroom, 2.5 bath home seamlessly integrates with the natural beauty of its surroundings, creating a retreat that captures the essence of seaside living. Expansive windows grace the ocean-facing façade, offering panoramic views of the vast Atlantic Ocean. The outside terrace provides a perfect setting for al fresco dining, social gatherings, or simply relaxing while enjoying the sea breeze. The house stands as a testament to both craftsmanship and functionality. Positioned outside the flood zone, it offers peace of mind and security against the elements. This beachfront property, with its sandy beach, shingle-style elegance, and stunning Atlantic views, offers not only a serene retreat but also the convenience of easy access to nearby restaurants and the lively amenities of downtown Newport.
