Little Compton, RI – New York Times Favorite Place is a LandVest Favorite Place Too. Find Out Why.

Little Compton – A Favorite Coastal Community in Rhode Island

This Warren's Point property is four parcels with three cottages on more than 25 acres.

LandVest has had a long relationship with Little Compton, Rhode Island representing both buyers and sellers of Little Compton’s most distinctive properties.  Our success stories include the highest residential sale in Little Compton, sold by Terry Boyle (LandVest-Boston) and located on Warren’s Point.  Little Compton is located in southeastern coastal Rhode Island, is approximately 28.9 square miles, and its history dating back to 1670’s has created a small community of coastal homes rich in history and beauty.  Many of the grand homes are generational assets with but one or two family ownerships.  We took the opportunity to poll several of our current and previous clients about why they love this coastal community in Rhode Island.  Here are some of their comments:

  • Beaches, “sandy”, “public” and “private”, particularly Goosewing Beach and South Shore Beach
  • Fishing, from shore or boat, Rhode Island is a fisherman’s paradise. The diversity and abundance of game fish found in Rhode Island waters, combined with accessibility of our shoreline provides angling excitement year-round.
  • Boating, cruise over to Newport, RI (Mansions, Castle Hill Lighthouse, Rose Island
    Lighthouse    , Jazz and international music festivals) or Cuttyhunk Island
  • Slower pace of life
  • Small town vibe
  • Vibrant artistic background
  • Agriculture and open space
  • Stone walls and Vineyards
  • Great surfing
  • Beautiful Golf Course and Idyllic Yacht Club

On Warren's Point eastern shore, this 2 acre oceanfront property offers spectacular views of Cape Cod, Martha's Vineyard and the Elizabeth Islands.

18.90 acre farm has a three-bedroom c1690 Colonial situated in a pastoral setting of open fields, conservation land and a pond offering privacy, bird watching and walking trails.

Location, Location, Location: Little Compton, RI Real Estate News:  Homes for Sale on Warren Point

  

Little Compton, Rhode Island is located in southeastern Rhode Island, between the Sakonnet River and the Massachusetts state border with extensive water frontage on Rhode Island Sound on the Atlantic Ocean. It’s approximately 25 miles from Newport by car or approximately 12.5 nautical miles by boat. Cuttyhunk Island and the rest of the Elizabeth Islands are 10 nautical miles to the east. Martha’s Vineyard is approximately 16 nautical miles to the southeast. The area is well known for its history, agricultural traditions, beautiful beaches and charming historic town center.

The area now known as Little Compton was originally inhabited by the Sakonnet tribe and later divided by the Plymouth Colony through a series of lotteries beginning in 1674 and ending in 1680. A few structures dating back to the 17th century still survive: the Wilbor House (visit the Little Compton Historical society ), the Peabody House and many more from the 18th and 19th century. The town common is surrounded by buildings pre-dating 1900 which gives Little Compton its quaint New England feel.

LandVest has been fortunate to have been part of several major transactions in the Little Compton Real Estate market and can assist both buyers and sellers in the purchase or sale of properties. Recently LandVest assisted with the negotiations of the area’s highest sale of land in Little Compton’s history.  Click to view recent Warren’s Point record real estate sale.  LandVest currently has two listings that have recently come to market in the Warren’s Point’s neighborhood. The larger of these two properties has important conservation values that could be preserved for potential tax benefits  while still allowing for limited development as a family compound. The Warren’s Point Beach Club is located within walking distance of these properties. Access to the beach club is available in different membership types with varying waitlist lengths purported to be from one to five years. One of the listings has direct ocean frontage while the other has direct coastal pond frontage and both have ocean views.

Block Island Real Estate for Sale offers Sunrise and Sunset Ocean Views
By LandVest
 

LandVest is pleased to announce three new real estate  listings on Block Island, Rhode Island.

Block Island, Rhode Island

  Block Island is 12 miles off the coast of Rhode Island, nestled in the Atlantic Ocean and is known for its miles of public sandy beaches, clear waters, dramatic bluffs, conservation areas, and tranquil lifestyle. The Nature Conservancy has designated Block Island “One of the 12 last great places in the Western Hemisphere.”

The Clinton Cottage

The three properties represent a carefully tiered portfolio of selected homes on the island. The offering begins with the Clinton Cottage, named in commemoration of President Bill Clinton’s visit in 1997. This visit marked the first time an acting President visited Block Island. President Clinton and his wife, Hillary Rodham Clinton, were able to enjoy the Cottage during a brief stay while vacationing on nearby Martha’s Vineyard.

The Clinton Cottage was built in the 1960’s, but was completely renovated in the late 1990’s. It is located right on the water’s edge and features stunning panoramic ocean views from every room, a wrap-around deck, and updated baths and kitchen. Sited on a high point overlooking the beach, the property is one of the few places on the East Coast to take in both the sunrise and sunset over the ocean. Other highlights include beautiful landscaping and stone walkways, a private stairway that leads down to a sandy beach, and a thoughtfully positioned outdoor Jacuzzi.

Mill Pond Farm

The next offering is Mill Pond Farm, a two-acre family compound estate that has a tranquil and pastoral setting. With sweeping views of the Block Island Sound, this custom built five-bedroom main house and guest house have been thoughtfully designed and offer a flexible floor plan for both entertaining and family living. Additional highlights include a pond, horse stall and fenced pasture, outdoor shower, fireplace and two-car garage.

Cottage on the Hill

The portfolio is completed by Cottage on the Hill, a custom Cape, built in 2004.  This three-bedroom Block Island home for sale is situated on an elevated site offering spectacular ocean views and the convenience of being close to town. 

All three listings are colisted with the Block Island firm of Sullivan Real Estate. Offering prices range from $4,800,000 to $1,850,000.
