21 Kay St, Newport, RI 02840

'The James L. Hazard House,' c. 1865, is an extraordinary example of Newport architecture. Fully renovated and restored in 2013, this classic residence in the distinguished Kay/Catherine district has all the amenities today's buyer seeks. The stately porch welcomes you into the sun drenched foyer with cathedral ceilings, a grand staircase, and contemporary lighting fixtures. Working your way towards the expansive eat in kitchen, you'll find high-end Viking appliances and a customized pantry with built-ins for extra storage; just off the kitchen is an office ideal for remote working and a large living room with a gas fireplace. In addition, there is a separate entrance with an in-law space complete with one bedroom, a full bath and sitting area. Upstairs is the one-of-a-kind main bedroom: California Closets and a stunning bathroom oasis with a large walk-in shower and soaking tub. Nearby is one more bedroom, another office, a full bathroom, and a laundry area. On the third floor, you will find two en suite bedrooms, a sitting room between them, plus a bonus room --and, from the front of the house, a view of the famous Claiborne Pell Bridge. Additional features include whole house filtration system, central air, efficient gas heating, all-new landscaping, a new bluestone patio, and a fully fenced-in yard. Worth noting, this residence won the prestigious Rhody Award for Historic Preservation in 2015 from the Rhode Island Historical Preservation and Heritage Commission.
