About this property

Historic 4-Bedroom Home in the Heart of Newport

This historic home is in the center of Newport. Restaurants and stores are right across the street. First Beach is less than a mile walk in one direction while the Newport Wharves, with more restaurants, shops and night life are ½ of a mile in the other direction. You will be in the center of all that Newport has to offer while enjoying all of the amenities of a comfortable, well-stocked home that is professionally cleaned between guests.

Your home is adjacent to the home of your host, who is happy to help if there is anything you need. Yet you will have complete privacy, and the home to yourself.

Be aware that you are in the middle of a city that is bustling in the summertime. Normally, this location is fairly quiet, but there can be times when there is noise coming from the street. This historic home is on three levels and the stairways are narrow and steep, so this cannot be considered an accessible home. Additionally, the stairs onto the third-floor lead into the main third floor bedroom, and from there you will access the other two bedrooms on the third floor, meaning that those using the other two bedrooms will need to walk through the main third floor bedroom to get to their bedrooms. The third-floor bathroom is equally accessible to all three bedrooms on the third floor. Please make sure this is appropriate for you and your guests.

From May 1st to October 1st, we will provide two guest passes so that you can park your car(s) on the street in Newport. Often this means parking across the street from the house, but in the busier seasons you may need to look around for a spot. There is also nearby public parking available. From Oct 2nd to April 30th, guest passes are not required and anyone can park on the residential streets in Newport without a pass. It is vital that you return the guest pass to us and we will charge $125 if it is not returned.

Please note that there are residents living in the area and it is important that you are able to keep the noise to a minimum and otherwise respect the neighbors. Parties are not allowed that are larger than ten people. Smoking and vaping are strictly prohibited. If these rules are broken, you will be immediately evicted and charged a minimum fee of $250.

We are happy to have your pets as long as they are well behaved, do not mark the home in any way and are not on the furniture. There is an additional fee if you bring your pet. Please be sure to register your pet and pay the fee when booking. True service animals are welcome free of charge.

This is truly the most conveniently located spot in Newport. We are looking forward to hosting you!

Central location in Newport

The location of this home is perfect for enjoying nearby restaurants and activities in and around Newport. The setup of the home is a little quirky due to its age, but it is charming and comfortable.

Perfect Spot

We were in town for a local lacrosse event, and the convenience of the homes location was perfect. We were minutes away from everything by foot, less than 2 miles away from the facility where we were coaching. The space easily accommodated five adults, and we will surely be looking to book this again in the future.

We wanted to have a family vacation in a dog and diversity friendly city, and Newport is the chosen city. This property is in the center of Newport, conveniently located to attractions and eateries. Parking is easy with the provided parking passes. Neighbors are friendly and safe.

Very clean!

Very nice house with plenty of beds and areas to sit for multiple guest's. I’ve been coming to Newport for a long time and this was on of best stay. Parking passes are very helpful because the neighborhoods are narrow and not a lot of spots. Church St lot is a 10 minute walk and can part over night if needed and short walk to everything.

Awesome location!

Great location in Newport; able to walk to shops and attractions. The drawbacks were: 1. The dishwasher did not work. Contacted the owner/manager in the AM via text and did not hear back until the evening. 2. One of the extra chairs that was to be used around dining table was broken so not all of the party could be in eating at the same time. 3. Limited toilet tissue. There were 8 women and about 1 1/2 rolls per bathroom for our stay. The house is cute and the beds were VERY comfortable and all of us rested well. We had a fun time there celebrating my sister’s 60th birthday!

The kitchen was basic. It would be nice to have a Keurig. Or maybe an espresso machine? I know that sounds expensive but it would add to the morning. I would have liked a first floor bathroom

Although we usually stay closer to the beaches, we were delighted with our experience in this charming home. The proximity to multiple grocery stores, restaurants and the sights made for a perfect week. We were a little early for our stay and the host had no problem letting us in before the agreed upon time. We really appreciated this accommodation. We found the 2nd floor master bedroom with the 2 bedrooms on the third floor perfect for our family. I should mention that the third floor was a little less refined than the rest of the home. There were a few broken items. However, this appeared to be the result of inconsiderate guests before us and therefore hard to blame on the host during the busy summer season. We had a great time and are looking forward to returning for another stay.
