Living in an antique home appeals to a certain type of person. Marry that with a seaside community and it's a win-win with this Little Compton gem.
The beautiful Greek revival house at 56 Maple Ave. sits on more than a half-acre, with lovely English Country gardens enclosed by stone walls.
Built in 1840, the home has three bedrooms, two and a half bathrooms, and plenty of charm.
With nearly 1,900 square feet, there is an eat-in kitchen, large dining room and a living room with a brick fireplace. A screened-in porch leads to a deck and patio overlooking the expansive backyard and gardens. A master bedroom, with its own bathroom and fireplace, is conveniently located on the first floor.

Lots of open houses are scheduled in the area today. Check them out here.

At the top of the second-floor landing are two bedrooms, a full bath and a built-in book case.
There are pine hardwood floors throughout the house and updated windows and electricity. The full basement is unfinished, with bulk-head access.
The property is located between Little Compton Town Common and area beaches, including Goosewind and South Shore Beach.
The home is available for the asking price of $649,000. For more information or to schedule a viewing, contact Terry Holland with T.L. Holland at 401-265-3578.
