4 Wood St, Bristol, RI 02809

Enchanting tree lined entry to one of Bristol's beloved treasures-this classic estate was designed and owned by noted architect George Locke Howe, also the author of a history of Bristol called "Mount Hope, A New England Chronicle". Ideally situated on a lovely 2.65 acres very near Blithewold, the beautiful harbor and Bristol's lively and picturesque downtown, this stately 5-bedroom has a first floor primary suite that overlooks the heated in ground pool area, high wood beamed ceilings, built-ins and charming details throughout. It offers endless opportunities as a primary or secondary home and is a perfect configuration for extended family and friends to gather. Four-year-old roof, new propane heating, and newer windows. A little interior updating will go a long way to make this a stunning showstopper and would be a sound investment. There is a legal 1-bedroom, 1-bathroom cottage on the property that is currently leased on a month-to-month basis (see MLS 1361710). It can remain as a revenue source or converted to any number of uses of your choice. Cottage may need to be shown in subsequent appointment after viewing primary residence.
