71 Prospect Hill ST Newport, RI 02840

"The Henderson-Oman House'- built around 1840 +/- has a handsome granite foundation, two brick chimneys that define the roof line, though the fireplaces are hidden now inside the walls, high ceilings, and the original front door and sidelights. Only the first and second floor are living space now but there is expansion space in the lower level and the attic. With approval perhaps a dormer could be added that would afford harbor views. Behind the brown roofing shingles that covers the exterior is clapboard siding that could possibly be restored. The one car garage, though in disrepair, is such a great asset in the downtown area of Newport. Beautiful wide planks line the attic floor and the two fireplaces in the basement show the original beauty of this home. The back yard would make a wonderful intown oasis. The house is in need of a full restoration but its location, size and parking makes this a great value and an opportunity to create your dream home.

Any offer will require probate approval. Details on how this process works can be supplied if requested.
