Relish in the grandeur from centuries gone by in this 1750s historic colonial. The house is the original plantation home of Nathaniel Briggs.
Located in one of Tiverton's finest Sakonnet waterfront neighborhoods, historic Winnisimet Farms, the property offers a private association with deeded beach rights and mooring potential.
Although the home is more than 250 years old, it has been meticulously updated and maintainted. When making renovations, the owners retained original detail throughout while making thoughtful upgrades. With tall ceilings, generaously sized rooms and close to 6,000 square feet of living space, the home has plenty of room for a large family.
The estate includes seven fireplaces, 14 rooms, five bedrooms and four-and-a-half bathrooms. As you enter from the grand foyer, you are awed by the open view through to the grand living room and sunroom with natural light flooding the space. Also on the first level are his and hers libraries, a wet bar, formal living room with fireplace, sunroom, dining room, sitting room, large eat-in kitchen, mudroom, laundry room and half bath.
The master suite features a balcony, and the other four bedrooms each have their own bathroom. One of the en suites can be considered an inlaw or au pair apartment.
The home has an unfinished third floor with full staircase for attic storage. There is a three-car, attached garage.
The more than one-acre lot is abutted by four acres of Audubon land, which provides added privacy and a sanctuary for many coastal inhabitants. There are seasonal peek-a-boo views of the Sakonnet River, and the home is surrounded by lush gardens and stoine walls that bring the outside into every room of thre house.
The home is available for the asking price of $1,250,000. For more information, contact Renee Welchman, with Keller Williams Realty, at 401-649-1915.
