Charming, Classic New England waterfront cottage

Charming waterfront cottage in a family friendly neighborhood.
Well appointed cottage with all the updated amenities you'll need to feel right at home.

This lovely cottage has plenty of room for everyone. Enjoy your morning coffee/tea in the sunroom or evening drink out on the porch watching a magnificent sunset. Spread out on the large sectional couch and watch a movie on the big screen TV with soundbar.
The main floor has 2 bedrooms. The master bedroom has a Queen size bed, coastal style furniture and large double closet. The second bedroom has 2 brand new Twin beds, dresser and closet space.
The lower level of the house offers a comfortable bonus room with a large screen TV & Bluetooth soundbar, a built-in desk for setting up a office space, plus a new Queen size sleep sofa to entertain your guests. In addition, there's a full size laundry room and storage for all your beach stuff!
Winter '23 NEW FULL BATHROOM added to lower level to accommodate additional overnight guests.

The centrally located home is easily accessible to all major routes and local attractions. Newport is a short 20 minute drive, spend the day exploring the Gilded Age mansions, take a scenic tour of Ocean Drive or visit Fort Adams State Park. Don't miss the enchanting Cliff Walk with panoramic ocean views.

Located on the northside of Aquidneck Island, Portsmouth provides the perfect location to access all the area attractions. Visit the historic village of Jamestown right over the Newport Pell bridge, take a short drive to explore Historic Tiverton Four Corners or enjoy the beaches in Little Compton. A quick drive over the Mt Hope Bridge is the seaside village of Bristol where you will find an active waterfront filled with restaurants, shops and cafes. Be sure to visit Colt State Park with lovely walking trails, picnic spots and an open air Chapel-by-the-Sea.

Common Fence Point is one of those neighborhoods that people love to visit and live. There's direct water access across the street where you can swim, kayak, or sunbathe. There's the local playground, baseball diamond and of course the brand new CFP Community Center which hosts exercise classes, kids activities, music events, movie nights, plus a little corner store to pick up basic items or sandwich to take to the beach, and all are within walking distance from the house.

Enjoy digging your toes in the sand and catching a wave at the beautiful local beaches, then stop at the local clam shack for a lobster roll!

There is always something to do, regardless of the season, in the beautiful state of Little Rhody!

Portsmouth Waterfront Cottage

We had a such a nice stay at this lovely house. It’s in a great location and the views of the water are truly amazing. The decor is beautiful and gives off a relaxing, beach vibe. Noelle is very accessible if needed and has provided all that you could want or need. We would definitely stay here again.

Well-maintained property

The cottage is in great condition and well furnished. It is right across the street from the bay, and has a deck with a nice view of the water and sunsets. The neighborhood is quiet. We found the owners to be very responsive.

Gorgeous, clean home in a beautiful neighborhood!

We stayed here for our wedding weekend (got married in Tiverton nearby) and would love to come back for our anniversary next year! It was spacious, clean, and the hosts were super responsive with any questions that arose before or during the stay. The decor was lovely, the natural light and view off the deck were spectacular, kitchen and bathrooms were well appointed and the check out instructions were clear and concise. Our wedding photographer also loved the house and there were great spots within walking distance for photos.

Vacation in Portsmouth, RI

This property had an amazing view of the water and we really enjoyed watching the dog walkers each day. Cleanliness was top notch (new white socks that stayed white!!). Bathrooms and mattresses were exceptional. Heat, wi-fi, tv all worked well. Communication with the owners was wonderful. Decor was very tasteful. (Only suggestion would be less decorative pillows.) Overall, I would say this is a perfect vacation getaway and would recommend staying here.

Perfect

Had an amazing week with friends at this perfect spot with great views of the waterfront. Coffee and cocktails on the deck every day with beautiful sunsets was the best. The cottage was well equipped and most relaxing and comfortable. Hope to be back in the future! Noelle and David easily reached if needed and made sure we had everything we needed..

Beautiful and Relaxing Home and Location

Perfect spot overlooking the bay with easy morning and evening walks along the quiet side road or the beach. The home was as advertised and we wanted for nothing. Our hostess, Noelle came by to make sure we were comfortable and to address any questions we may have had. I would not hesitate to stay here again, probably one of the best, if not the best rentals we’ve ever had. Close to both Bristol and Newport so a perfect location for sightseeing.

Wedding weekend

The cottage was just perfect for our needs. It was a little smaller than it looked on line but no problem. It was so well equipped also. The only problem we had was the weather. It didn’t cooperate for this wedding. The host was exceptional with our requests. Would love to go back in the summer to enjoy the view.

Beautiful House and Great Location

Noelle was a wonderful host and the house and location were just perfect. The house was clean and very well kept - we were all very comfortable and wished we could have stayed longer! Our stay was in October and the weather was very rainy that weekend but I would really like to come again in the spring or summer to enjoy water. Highly recommend this beautiful property!

A coastal gem!

A very special cottage in a very special spot! The hosts have provided a lovely, well equipped and super comfortable getaway with beautiful waterfront views off the front porch in a terrific neighborhood. They thought of everything one might need and made some great suggestions for our visit, plus the place was modern and spotless. We found Portsmouth to be a perfect landing pad for exploring the area- convenient and close but away from the hectic fray. We loved our stay and cannot wait to return! Thank you Noelle and coastal cottages!

Comfortable with amazing view of bay

We stayed here a year ago and were happy to return. The home is clean and comfortable and the view of the bay is amazing. The host has thought of everything to make you feel at home and communicates quickly and easily. We spent hours on the porch and in the sunroom enjoying the views of the bay, we walked the lovely neighborhood, and even took the kayaks out. Easy access to Tiverton area, Bristol and RWU, and Newport.

What a great getaway! We didn’t want to leave the incredible view and peacefulness of the front deck. But we did. We found the cute town of Bristol. Enjoyed lunch there and a great walking trail the next day. The whole area was great and the house was perfect. Would definitely return!
