Byggd 1677 Àr Major Thomas Fenner House det Àldsta hemmet i Providence Plantations och en av de fÄ ursprungliga "stenÀndarna" som finns. 2400 sqft 4 BD 2 BA hem sitter pÄ 3 tunnland mark sidospÄr till Stone Pond. NÀr du gÄr upp Stony Acre drar du ner den lÄnga uppfarten strax innan stoppskylten. Du kommer att lÀmna en 1970-talet bostadsomrÄde för att upptÀcka en lugn miljö bland gamla trÀd som tar dig tillbaka till en tid av den tidiga koloniala Rhode Island.

Hemmet byggdes nĂ„gra mĂ„nader efter kung Phillips krig dĂ€r nybyggarnas hem brĂ€ndes till marken. Ursprungligen byggd som en 2œ-story 18. 5 "x 18. 5" stolpe och strĂ„lkarm hemma pĂ„ en fĂ€lt sten grund med en massiv sten spis. Den ursprungliga brandrummet, sova kammare, vind och kĂ€llare Ă€r vĂ€ldigt mycket som de byggdes. PĂ„ 1700-talet tillĂ€gg tillsattes till söder och vĂ€ster och pĂ„ 1920-talet en vindskupan lades pĂ„ att ge det en Salt Box stil och en inomhus badrum.

Hemmet fungerade som en bostad, domstol, möte hus och krog. Google Major Thomas Fenner Bear för att se sin ursprungliga receptet för öl.

Home infördes i det nationella registret över historiska platser 1990 och Àr juvelen i tidiga Rhode Island hem.

Den nuvarande Ă€garen tog hem tillbaka till Fenner familjen i 2006 efter ett 90 Ă„r lĂ„ngt uppehĂ„ll med uppdraget att fortsĂ€tta dess bevarande i ytterligare 330 Ă„r. År 2015 beslutade Ă€garen att göra fastigheten tillgĂ€nglig som ett semesterboende för att hjĂ€lpa den att stödja sig sjĂ€lv och att göra det möjligt för offentliga och arkitektoniska och historiska forskare ökad tillgĂ„ng till hemmet. Hemmet Ă€r inrett med antikviteter, period, reproduktionsmöbler och kolonial stil. Inredningen ger atmosfĂ€ren av ett historiskt hem och ger fortfarande gĂ€sterna en bekvĂ€m vistelse med moderna bekvĂ€mligheter (inomhusvattenberedning, fyra platt-tv-wifi och larmsystem) som inte stĂ€mmer överens med hemets historiska natur. TĂ€nk pĂ„ detta hem kan ha varit fem stjĂ€rna nĂ€r byggdes, men Rustik Ă€r en bĂ€ttre beskrivning i dag.

Bland de arkitektoniska underverk av huset Ă€r den massiva fĂ€ltstenskorstenen pĂ„ norra sidan av huset, varför dessa hem Ă€r kĂ€nda som "stenĂ€ndare". Loftfönstret till vĂ€nster om skorstenen Ă€r storleken pĂ„ de ursprungliga fönstren, som hade trekantiga glasrutor som importerades frĂ„n England. Den post och balk konstruktion Ă€r av gamla tillvĂ€xt oskuld timmer. Kolla in storleken pĂ„ sommaren (trĂ€ balk över spisen) genom att öppna dörren till tvĂ€ttstugan och sĂ„g upp till vĂ€nster. Det hĂ€r Ă€r ocksĂ„ dĂ€r strömbrytaren till spotljuset som lyser upp eldstaden ligger. Eldstaden Ă€r 10 fot bred och över 5 œ fot hög. För att öppna och stĂ€nga rökgasen tryck upp och dra ner metallstĂ„ngen som syns pĂ„ höger sida av eldstaden. Granit under, framför och sidospĂ„r spis Ă€r det ursprungliga köket. En tung metallstĂ„ng kan ses genom att titta upp i skorstenen. Detta anvĂ€ndes för att hĂ€nga krukor att laga mat samt tre ben krukor sitter i kolen som en i bakre vĂ€nstra sidan av den öppna spisen. Du kan se den grunda bikupugnen i baksidan av skorstenen som föll ur mode som ett resultat av att mĂ„nga kvinnor fĂ„ngar sina klĂ€nningar i brand medan de lagar mat. De stora golvbjĂ€lkarna som kan ses i kĂ€llaren placerades bara 5 tum frĂ„n varandra och de bjĂ€lkarna fĂ„r kredit för hemmet som fortfarande stĂ„r i det 4: e Ă„rhundradet. PĂ„ vinden kan man se de distinkta Ă€rren av timmer som har blivit "gropsĂ„gade".

Det var en ny Englands tradition att ge nygifta tvÄ sockerlönn att plantera i sin trÀdgÄrd sÄ att de skulle ha lönnsocker för livet. Maple trÀd bakom huset var sannolikt planterade i 2: a hÀlften av 1800-talet. Skafferiet bredvid frukostplats har flyttats frÄn vÀnster om huvud spis, men det Àr den ursprungliga 1677 skafferi.

Under en standardrÀnta kommer reservationer pÄ mindre Àn 7 dagar endast att accepteras inom 30 dagar efter belÀggning eller nÀr det omedelbart fortsÀtter eller följer en befintlig reservation.

Som ni kan förestÀlla er ett hem i denna Älder har vissa funktioner som Àr unika för vad gÀsterna kan anvÀndas för att. Vissa dörröppningar Àr lÄga, trösklar Àr höga, stegen Àr brant, och sprickor i 1677 bred planka golv skulle göra höga klackar en mardröm. En 1929 Elmsford gasspis Àr mittpunkten i köket. KokkÀrlet har en öppen pilot, sÄ lÀgg aldrig nÄgot brÀnnbart pÄ toppen av kaminen. Kontrollerna för ugnen finns pÄ höger sida av ugnen.

We had a fantastic stay at the Fenner home. It was exactly as described and easily held all 10 of us. We all had hot water in our showers too which was a bit of a surprise considering the age of the home! The setup of everything was perfect for a larger crowd. The stove took a tiny bit of getting used to when we cooked but using a vintage stove in a historic home is part of the fun. Would definitely recommend if you’re interested in history! We were comfortable and learned a lot.The host was incredibly easy to work with and kind. He answered all of our questions promptly and even helped us understand the layout of the house ahead of time so we could plan out who stayed in which room.

The Perfect New England Experience

Although I was born and raised in Rhode Island, I settled in Texas in 1996 and raised my family there. I was able to bring my fiancé, 5 of my children, a son-in-law, daughter-in-law, and 2 grandchildren on a Rhode Island adventure and wanted to find a place that would accent the trip. I struck gold in choosing the Fenner House! The home transported my family and me back to the 17th and 18th century and each one of us loved the experience! The home was tidy, the rates were very fair, and the colonial interior design was amazing! By the time we packed up to leave, there was a sense sadness we all felt. We made lifelong memories that spanned generations and we wished we could stay longer. There is not a thing I would change and no a single improvement I could recommend. Kudos and thank you to the owners of the Major Thomas Fenner House! I highly recommend a stay to any family looking for a great New England experience!

A Step Back in Time

This property is amazing. It’s such an old building, but it’s kept in phenomenal shape. The only deterrent would be the smokiness in the air from the fireplace, if you have asthma it may cause some breathing issues for sure. Other than that though there is nothing negative I can say about the place. The property is huge and offers plenty of space to spread out — both inside AND out! The outdoor area was a highlight for our group especially. Richard was great with answering any questions we had leading up to our check-in. It’s also within 20-30mins of the beaches! I would highly recommend this property for anyone looking to get away in Rhode Island.

Amazing place to stay, especially if you appreciate history...

Overall, this house is a wonderful place to stay. It has a good location with a Walmart and other conveniences less than 2 miles away. In addition, for a historical house, it is very well kept. The owner was wonderful with contacting me from the beginning and even checking on our family during our stay. Definite 5-stars for the owners. My only caution would be for anyone who has severe allergies, as this is an older home, and because of that, we did take air purifiers with us, which helped a lot for us to be able to stay there because my allergies are extremely severe. But I wouldn't have wanted to miss out on the opportunity to stay in such history. Thank you so much, Fenner family, for opening this up for so many to enjoy.

historical home

I booked this property because of the history of the property. I wanted a unique experience outside standard hotel rooms. What a treat. Everyone in my family thoroughly enjoyed the home. We walked around the inside of the home and discovered something new every time. The floors are original from late 1600's so if this is not your scene - I wouldn't recommend this property. But if you have an appreciation for things still around for over 300 plus years (including trees in the backyard) I would highly recommend this property. We had my grandson (who is 10 months old and very curious) with us and had to watch him very carefully while crawling on the floor because of the uneven floor boards but we put a large blanket on the floor and he was just fine. The hosts were so accommodating to our needs and communication was excellent. Thank you Richard for opening your family home and heritage to us.

Great Experience!

We loved staying at The Thomas Fenner House. It was a truly amazing experience staying in this historic home. Love the Glenwood stove and all the fireplaces. We were a group of 7 and came here to celebrate my son and his fiancée. He proposed to her during the trip at Cliff Walk in Newport. The house had all the necessities we needed and we were comfortable during our stay. Host was very communicative and responsive to any inquiries we had during our stay. Great location and easy access to other areas in Rhode Island that we visited during our trip! I would recommend staying at this house for a trip back in time. A good time was had by all and we left with plenty of memories. Thank you. Yvonne and Nick

Thank you for preserving this home for overnight guests

I live in Warwick, RI and needed a place for my sister, her husband and 3 children, ages 12-13, to stay for a few days. They were touring New England for their annual summer vacation. This was a perfect place for them to stay to get a more visceral experience of RI and its history. As we opened the key-lock door the smell of over 400 years of wood fires greeted us. I had printed out the informative tour that owner Richard Fenner included on VRBO for his guests. We followed with whetted appetite as we explored nooks and crannies of the house and grounds. My engineer brother-in-law especially enjoyed examining the building structure and exclaimed about the wide width of the floor planks! Nice job on blending the old with contemporary comforts of up to date washer/drye, shower and room AC!

Beautiful historic home!

We stayed last week for the occasion of my son's wedding in Rehoboth, MA. This home is beautifully maintained and the owner has preserved its historical history and character while providing the modern conveniences of A/C, bathrooms and kitchen that are updated and easy to use. My husband loved the history of the house (which is there to read) and I loved the 1600 ambiance. We had a total of 5 adults there for a week and a local friend who stayed 2 nights with us and we all had plenty of room. We used the fireplace only once, but what a thrill to light a few logs on the huge fireplace and listen to the crackle! The home was spotless with plenty of cleaning supplies provided so we could tidy up as the week went along. The location was great as we were central to the wedding and rehearsal dinner locations in North Dighton and Rehoboth. We also went to Newport, Providence and Fall River (Pier 52 is a great place for dinner by the water) as we were not far from any of these places. Thank you to the host (who is very responsive to questions) for making this historical home a comfortable place to stay and enjoy! It is a gem in our book! Hope to stay there again when we come back to the area.

Lots of space and interesting place!

We enjoyed our stay in this historic home. We had plenty of space for our group of 6. The instructions to enter and lock the house we very clear. Communication with and instructions from the host were excellent. We had no complaints other than a few things could have been cleaner. We had an odd experience with a neighbor yelling “no fires” while we were simply walking around exploring the yard. We weren't planning to make a fire, as that was in the instructions for the house. Overall our experience was great. The description is very clear that this house has it’s idiosyncrasies that come with an old, historic home. We found the house charming and interesting. It was a step back in time, while at the same time a comfortable stay.

Great Experience!

Staying at the Major Thomas Fenner House was an awesome experience, that made you feel like you were stepping back into the past. The owner was very attentive to any questions I had, and responded within hours if not minutes from when I’d reach out to him with an inquiry. I loved the guided tour book of the house that was located on the coffee table in the living room that the owner out together. I learned from the guide that members of the Fenner family relocated from Rhode Island to Herkimer County
which is where I live!!! The house, inside and out was well taken care of. Once again, awesome experience!!! Thank you for everything!!!

A step back in time...

This was definitely an interesting home to stay in. The quirks of being so old simply added to the charm we loved the Glenwood range, absolutely fascinating. Firmer mattresses and attention to a sugar ant issue (I had brought along a vinegar based cleaning spray which helped a lot) would have added to our enjoyment.

Great home but neighborhood issues

The house was amazing. Old vintage and just a beautiful piece of history. No better place to celebrate our great uncles 100th birthday. But if you plan on staying beware the neighbors. So here we go. When we arrived there was a nice fire pit, we were asked to keep the fires small and we did. However anything bigger then a match was an issue with the lady next door. It rained alot so we only had 3 small fires to make smores and just talk. The neighbor was not happy about this. So one day we went out and when we returned the fire pit was gone. The owner apparently sent someone over to fill in the pit and planted a small shrub. I was quite disappointed that i was not advised of this. It was a rental positive for us. But anyway the neighbor was complaining so much i gather this was a fix for her constant complaining. The owner said the cops were called. We never had any contact with police. On july 4th the neighborhood was explosive with fireworks. It was amazing and a beautiful site. Back to the neighbor. We were cooking on the grill on the opposite side of the yard near the barn far from nosey nelly the neighbor. But she still called the fire department on us. Yes the fire department showed up came in and we spoke. The fire lieutenant and his crew were very very upset that they were called when we were simply cooking on a grill. We offered food to the firemen and invited them back later if they got hungry. The fire department went to the neighbor's house and advised her if she called them again for this nonsense she would receive a 500.00 fine from the city for every call. The fire department told me this was there 10th call in 3 weeks from this lady. I dont think there will be an 11th call. Also the other neighbors dog isabel like to come over and poop 2 or 3 times a day. I got a little tired if picking up after isabel. So if you want to stay in an amazing piece of history this is the house for you. I cant say enough about this amazing home. But the neighbor will be a major issue. So keep noise down and beaware when cooking on the grill. But i dont thing the fire department will be called again.

An amazingly beautiful and historic house!

Everyone enjoyed their stay and the accommodations were fantastic. Every basic needs were supplied, such as bathroom and laundry supplies. The neighborhood was nice and I felt safe taking walks. I have no complaints but I will recommend that you DO NOT LIGHT AN OUTSIDE FIRE IN THE FIRE PIT! The fire department showed up and made us put it out. We were told that it is against city policy. You can light one in the main fireplace. 5 stars on this property!

Step back in time to colonial history... with modern convenience

This property is a unique step back in history, dating all the way to colonial times. It is a fascinating place to stay, and the owners have kept so many nods to its history through decorations and furniture. But there are also modern conveniences like a wonderful ground floor shower, security system, NEST thermostat, and outdoor grill. Whether you choose to light a fire in a hearth that is 344 years old, or roam the property abutting the pond, it's a relaxing getaway close to everything you might need.

Varför vÀrden valde detta boende

Richard has been involved in genealogy for a number of years which led to him learning of the existance of the Major Thomas Fenner House built by his 7th great grandfather Major Thomas and his father Capt. Arthur. He contacted the owners and let them know if they were ever to sell he would be interested. Even though the Home is on the Registry of Historic Places that does not provide protection. At the time the owner's were ready to sell there was also a developer looking to buy the property and build a condo complex in place of the House. The owner's picked a great time to sell to which means Richard picked a bad time to buy ... the peak of the Real Estate market in 2006. Anyway ... enough whining. He loves the House and hope you do too.

Vad som gör detta boende unikt

Absorb the ambience of living in the 1600s, but with modern bathrooms and kitchen. Spring in Rhode Island is a time of reawakening with trees budding, flowers emerging and bears awakening from their dens (just kidding). The summer months are generally delightful particularly when you have five A/C units for the occasional too hot and humid days. Rhode Island shows its brightest colors in October. Western and northern Rhode Island are heavily wooded. Blackstone Valley region includes the towns of Pawtucket, home of Slater Mill, the birthplace of the Industrial Revolution in America. The Blackstone Valley Explorer river boat offers trips on the river into mid-October. Beautiful foliage will be on display at Roger Williams Park and Zoo in Providence; and at Blithewold Mansion & Gardens in Bristol. In South County, a great scenic drive is Route 1 and Route 1A from Westerly to Wickford. Winters in Rhode Island are crisp and clear with a fair amount of snow. Luckily we have a plowing service to keep access to the property open at all times and a 2015 gas heating system with dual zone NEST thermostats to keep you comfortable when indoors.
