    What's special

    Tucked away on one of Little Compton’s quietest country roads, this rare 1790 antique Cape rests on nearly 8 acres of open farmland, grassy fields and stone-walled beauty. Lovingly stewarded by the Billings family since 1994, the farmstead has been carried forward with uncommon care. The main residence was expanded in the 1990s with a kitchen and bath addition, complementing the warmth and character of the original Cape, while a separate 500-square-foot one-bedroom cottage, post-and-beam barn, artist loft and woodworking shop offer space for guests, making, growing and gathering. The grounds are a living canvas of its past stewards —old orchard, berries, grapes, rare plantings and garden rooms shaped by a master gardener, with historic ties to the celebrated American Scene painter Molly Luce Burroughs. The farmstead carries a sense of permanence, artistry and place that is increasingly hard to find. Morning light moves across open fields, stone walls frame quiet corners, and every path reveals another layer of beauty. A place of privacy, provenance and possibility, it speaks to those drawn to land, light, craft, history and the simple rhythms of Little Compton life. Preserve it as a soulful private homestead, explore its by-right subdivision potential, or consider conservation possibilities with local farmland and preservation partners. Above all, 60 Snell Road seeks its next steward—someone to honor its past while carrying its beauty forward. Buyer to pay LCAT.
