Island Bungalow near Newport, nearby beach/sunset

This is a quintessential Jamestown, RI beach house!! Located 4 houses from Narragansett Bay and 1 mile to the famous "Sunset Beach" (thus all the sunset pictures), you can ride bikes or drive to beach, come home for lunch/nap and return in the afternoon or sunset cocktails! Note: This house is not winterized—it does not have a heating system. Electric baseboard is not connected to power. Window AC in living/dining and each bedroom. The space This house is so cute!! It has been used as a beach house for the past 50 years!! It has two bedrooms, a 'front room' with a pullout couch, one full bathroom, an outside shower for after the beach, a kitchen with original porcelain farmhouse sink, and a big sunny open-concept room with dining table, couch/chairs (with a 50" TV--my husband's idea!) overlooking the yard and covered pavilion/outside area -- a sitting/grilling/relaxing space. The house is clean, well-decorated and all you will need to enjoy a relaxing beach vacation. Jamestown is centrally located in RI: *12 minutes to Newport, RI [for lots of stores, world-class restaurants and nightlife] over the Newport Bridge (bring your EZPass). There is a passenger ferry to Newport from Jamestown which is nice as a 'designated driver' option and a pleasant way to get out on the water! *15 minutes to Narragansett Beach *40 minutes to the fishing/lobster village of Pt. Judith, which is where you pick up the Block Island Ferry (a must-do) and have family-style lobster when you return!! “Downtown Jamestown” is friendly, welcoming, casual and sophisticated. The quaint downtown area has East Ferry marina with views of Newport Bridge and Newport Harbor, lots of sailboats to watch, little gift shops, a hardware store, wine and cheese shop, and great restaurants that people come to visit from off-island. There are bike and kayak rentals too. The town beach (“Mackerel Cove”) is a half-moon shaped bay with soft sand, three miles away from the bungalow. Other must-sees are Beavertail Lighthouse and Museum Park--expansive views of the Atlantic Ocean and RI Sound/Newport; Ft Wetherill-views of the mouth of Narragansett Bay--a parade of sailboats and yachts to gaze at; Ft. Getty--kayak access to an estuary/pond and Narragansett Bay, nice secluded beach and a sand volleyball court. There are several farms on Jamestown, so produce stands and they also provide amazing vistas as you drive into town and past Marsh Meadows and the local fish shop. You really have everything you need in Jamestown, but can easily venture off on adventures!! Guest access Parking for 2 cars in the front yard (please park on the grass between the mailbox and the front walkway). No street parking allowed. It is a quiet family neighborhood, so no loud music or noise outside after 9:00pm. Other things to note Two queen beds and one pullout couch in separate living room ('sitting room'). This house has a relaxed atmosphere and you can feel all of the fun family times that were had there over the years. If you are looking for gourmet chef's kitchen and an upscale luxury experience, this house is not for you. It is for those who want to unwind, unplug, relax and enjoy nature, with a little bit of hoopla too! Registration Details RE.00893-STR, expiry date: 2025-11-07T00:00:00Z
