Property Description
Champ Soleil - Step into Gilded Age grandeur with this iconic French-style chateau, thoughtfully reimagined for modern luxury. Designed in 1929 by renowned architects Polhemus & Coffin, and inspired by 'La Lanterne' at Versailles, 'Champ Soleil' is a masterpiece of timeless elegance, privately sited behind wrought-iron gates on 5.53 acres along the southern end of Newport's famed Bellevue Avenue. Offering approximately 13,500+ sq ft of refined interiors, the estate features 11 bedrooms and 8.3 baths, complemented by grand entertaining rooms, a paneled library, a state of the art home theatre, and fully integrated high-end systems. The outdoor spaces include manicured gardens designed by landscape architect Umberto Innocenti, a 20' × 40' gunite pool, and expansive terraces for entertaining. A separate 2,200+/- sq ft two-unit carriage house and garage on Coggeshall Avenue provide additional accommodations, while vacant land along Coggeshall Avenue offers potential subdivision opportunity.
Meticulously restored and modernized, Champ Soleil seamlessly blends historic character with today's luxurious comforts, preserving the splendor of Newport's legendary Gilded Age. A landmark estate representing a rare opportunity in one of America's premier coastal enclaves.
