Authentic old-world Americana, Warwick’s hamlet of Amity has rich roots with its equestrian farms and fields and town and country lifestyle. It also holds a place in the history books for rare rocks and minerals (Warwickite, Clintonite, and Edenite) that were discovered here in the early 1800s. Newport Bridge Road was the gateway to this Eden and the historic landmarks like the Amity Church still stand.
The homes here have heritage and offer a rustic elegance rarely found in today’s mass market world. Hand-hewn beams, native rock and original architectural details are the highlight of this 2- bedroom, 2.5 bath home that’s been upgraded for modern living. Featuring radiant heating, newly resurfaced antique soaking tubs, a new outdoor hot tub area and 3 levels of living space, 114 Newport Bridge is a rare gem. The kitchen looks plucked from the pages of a Martha Stewart magazine, the spiral staircase in the main living room is an architectural art piece and the wood burning fireplaces offer an ambience like none other.
Enjoy running the country roads? A mile away you’ll find emus and peacocks to greet you, maybe even the occasional reindeer for the holidays, at one of the nearby farms that’s open to the public and has a market with local provisions. Or if slow morning are more your thing, the Juliet balcony is the perfect perch for a slow morning with a cup of coffee. By night, enjoy the wraparound deck for grilling and lounging and as the sun sets watch the stars under a dark sky while relaxing in the hot tub.
Throughout the seasons the landscape comes alive with raspberry bushes, iris gardens and spring blooms. While quiet seclusion is the lure of this area, Warwick’s thriving downtown shops and restaurants are just minutes away. Property is currently an active STR.
