About this property
Tranquility & beauty! Entire house & garden in a meadow overlooking a reservoir.
Reservoir House is on a hill overlooking a reservoir, with magnificent sunset views! It has an open floor plan of kitchen-dining-living room. This house was built in 1994 but has old fashioned appeal. It was the summer home for a renowned Brown University professor and his family, who still own it. Sunshine floods every room, and the charm & custom details make it both cozy and elegant. Birdsong fills the air, deer visit frequently, and an eagle likes to perch on the roof! There are no city lights to spoil the night so the sky is filled with stars. Upstairs there are 2 large bedrooms with Queen beds and a full bathroom The first floor has 1 large bedroom with a Queen bed, a small bedroom/office with a computer table & chair and a twin bed that converts to a Queen. The downstairs full bathroom also has a washer & dryer. The stone patio has a beautiful reservoir view. The large garden & spacious lawns are surrounded by a meadow. The outdoor shower is perfect to rinse off after the beach. Fully furnished including all kitchen utensils, blankets, pillows, towels, beach chairs & beach towels. The location is peaceful & quiet. Close to beaches, nature walks, artisan stores, antiques, restaurants, galleries, historic buildings, working farms & farmers' markets, vineyards, local fresh seafood. New England is famous for lobsters, clams, clam cakes and chowder! Sakonnet Vineyard is on the opposite side of the reservoir. The charming, old villages of Little Compton, Tiverton, Westport and Adamsville are all minutes away. Reservoir House is 30 minutes from Providence, the capital of Rhode Island, which is a beautiful cultural center with a thriving artist community, universities, museums and concert halls. It is close to the towns of Newport, RI & New Bedford, MA and Boston is a 60 minute drive away.

Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by Alexandra Morgan
I grew up in Providence, RI, and my parents built Reservoir House as our summer home. They designed every detail of it to be both beautiful and comfortable, with sunshine in every room and beautiful views of garden, meadows and the reservoir. My father was a professor at Brown University and he and my mother hosted many gatherings of family, friends and students here. With close family ties to Europe, especially France, there is a definite continental feel to the property. It is our pleasure now to invite others to come create their own summer memories here!
Why they chose this property
Little Compton is a charming village in beautiful farm country, near several beaches. The house is 5 minutes from the village center.
What makes this property unique
Beautiful and comfortable house with magnificent sunset views across the reservoir. Peaceful and quiet, in a wonderful part of Rhode Island
