Property Description

Dream of living in The Point? 19 & 19 Third Street present an opportunity to own two Victorian cottages in one of Newport's most beloved and historic neighborhoods. Known as the Baxter and Gladding houses, these mid-19th century residences blend original architectural character with thoughtful modern updates, and a flexible living arrangement suited for multi-generational living, guest accommodations, investment potential, or a refined in-town compound. The two single-family homes are connected by a breezeway, and each cottage enjoys its own sense of privacy with separate front entry. Interiors feature hardwood floors, updated kitchens, custom window shutters, and period specific details that define this part of town. Modern improvements include 2x high-efficiency Navien heating systems, Mitsubishi mini-splits, updated utilities, and separate services for each residence. Two blocks from Newport Harbor, and a short walk to America's Cup Avenue, Thames Street, the Newport Shipyard, waterfront parks, and the city's best features, the location offers an exceptional walkable lifestyle immersed in the charm and maritime character that define the Historic Point. The Point has the largest collection of Colonial Homes in the world, and walking around this neighborhood is like taking a trip back in time. This is a legal multi-family property with a layout that easily accommodates a variety of uses. Truly a unique offering where prime location, flexibility, and coastal living converge.
