About this property
Classic Beachfront Cottage, Newport County, RI
'Fairview Cottage,' a renovated 800 square foot classic beachfront cottage, is the perfect escape from everyday life!
Offering panoramic water views & direct beach access, this property is the ideal location for a summer get-away with friends and family, or a romantic couples retreat. Wake up to a stunning sunrise, and enjoy your morning coffee on the expansive mahogany deck overlooking the Sakonnet River. This 375 square foot deck is great for sun bathing, reading and relaxing on the lounge furniture and for evening dining and cocktails!
The sprawling beachfront offers an abundance of sea glass and beautiful shells to add to your collection. Being so close to the water's edge, you can truly enjoy the wild life on the river. You will frequently see ducks, herons and the occasional swan!
Painted wood walls, vaulted ceilings and exposed wooden beams promote a cozy cottage atmosphere. The new furnishings and white color palate provides a 'barefoot elegance' that will allow you to unwind in a comfortable yet sophisticated space.
Cook a delicious meal in the newly appointed custom kitchen. Designed with stainless steel appliances, farmers sink and convenient island to feel like your home away from home when preparing a family meal or dinner for two.
The open floor plan allows for entertaining and fun family meals. Guests can comfortably lounge in the living room, dine at the banquette or cuddle up on the couch to watch a surround sound movie on the 65 inch flat screen TV.
There are (2) bedrooms located off of the main living area. Bedroom (1) has a king size bed, walk-in closet, laundry and great morning and afternoon sunlight. Bedroom (2) has a queen size bed with amazing southern water views, a chair for lounging and a cabinet for clothing storage. All bedding is provided and is luxury hotel quality. There is also the option of a air mattress for additional guests upon request.
There is (1) Cottage Style bathroom with a vessel sink, shower and bath tub in one, plenty of storage and a large mirror. Enjoy an outdoor shower after a day of swimming or sun bathing. Towels are provided.
If you are looking to go out for a night on the town, Newport is a short 15 minute drive and offers an amazing variety of activities, dining experiences and entertainment to boot!

About the host
Hosted by Owner / Property Manager
Having both grown up spending summers on the water in New England, my husband and I shared the dream of one day living on the beach.... That way we would NEVER have to leave!
My husband owns and operates a boutique architectural firm specializing in the design of coastal New England homes. We agreed when renovating, to keep the coastal cottage charm alive, yet we wanted to update the space with the modern day amenities that make life a bit more comfortable. These included vaulted ceilings to make the space feel larger, a flat-screen TV, internet and cable, heat, air-conditioning, stainless steel appliances and a large deck overlooking the water. We wanted it to feel casual and relaxed but bright and sophisticated. A space that while amazing as a summer cottage would be enjoyable all year round. A home where our family, and other families could retreat for rest, relaxation and fun!

Why they chose this property
In 2011, shortly after we were married, we fell in love with this property. Built in the 1940’s, this summer cottage was previously owned by a family who spent every summer here together. When we purchased the property, the family shared great stories and memories that were created here, and we were truly inspired to make this a special place of our own.
What makes this property unique
It is a peaceful retreat, with every amenity you need, on a beach this is not heavily trafficked :)
