About This Home
Welcome to Poplar Point, a beautifully renovated residence set on an oversized lot in Newport’s coveted Point neighborhood offering rare space, flexibility, and refined coastal living. The bright main home features high ceilings, hardwood floors, and abundant natural light. The kitchen is appointed with top-of-the-line appliances, marble countertops, and a walk-in pantry, opening to comfortable living and dining spaces and a desirable first-floor primary suite with en-suite bath, walk-in closet, and enclosed front porch. Upstairs are three additional bedrooms, three full bathrooms, and a second living area, while the third-floor cupola offers flexible space for an office, guest room, or fitness area. The property includes multiple distinct living spaces, including a private apartment with its own entrance, as well as 12 1/2 Poplar Street, a detached one-bedroom, one-bath cottage with its own heating, electric, and water line that has been successfully rented for years and is equally suited as a guest house, studio, or home office. A very large basement provides exceptional storage and utility space. Set on one of the larger lots in The Point with beautifully landscaped grounds and generous off-street parking, the property offers a rare opportunity to spread out, entertain, and enjoy Newport’s coastal lifestyle just moments from the harbor, waterfront parks, and downtown.
