Fashioned after Stanford White’s Rosecliff Mansion, this dramatic home offers grand living on a manageable scale. Iron gates open to reveal nearly one acre of inviting grounds with expansion possibilities for ancillary building. Spacious stone terraces and a stunning pool with spa compliment the home’s arch-headed doorways, columns, and balustraded roofline that pay homage to its Bellevue Avenue inspiration. Illuminated with natural light, the magnificent great room features soaring ceilings, marble floors, an imposing marble and gilt fireplace, and richly detailed moldings. A sweeping staircase makes a dramatic architectural statement while gracefully dividing the living spaces. Set off by marble columns, the open kitchen is gloriously appointed with twin chandeliers, high-end appliances, and an antique, marble-topped island, and is supported by a handsome wine pantry. The great room gives way to more intimate spaces in the den and first level bedroom suite areas. Here the original structure’s wood flooring, warm colors, fireplace, and private terrace contribute to the comfortable atmosphere. Upstairs, the master bedroom defines luxury. The generous space with lounging and sleeping areas glows with hardwood floors, detailed moldings, and a white marble fireplace. The onyx bath with two vanities, a dual head steam shower, and a soaking tub provides an extravagant escape. A lovely balcony sitting area and an additional bedroom with marble bath complete the upper level. Perfect for both entertaining and quiet relaxation, this stylish home is located just steps from the beach and moments from downtown amenities. THE LOCATION: Newport, Rhode Island, just 90 minutes from Logan International Airport in Boston, 30 minutes from Quonsett Airport, and 3 hours from Manhattan, is home to numerous cultural and sporting attractions including world renowned jazz, folk, and classical music festivals, the Newport International Film Festival, the Tennis Hall of Fame, golf, yachting, and polo.
