This timeless waterfront cottage offers a private dock and exceptional views across Tiverton Basin and down the Sakonnet River. Built in 1930 and lovingly preserved, the property has changed hands only twice and offers a unique opportunity to own a piece of the area’s waterfront history.

With its unobstructed water views, private dock, classic architectural details, and beautifully maintained grounds, this is a property that evokes a bygone era while offering the comforts of today.
