Presenting "The Ames House," a beautifully renovated Colonial set on a prominent corner lot with picturesque views of the reservoir and Easton's Beach. Fully reimagined in 2018, this home blends timeless architecture with thoughtful modern updates in one of Newport's most desirable locations. The main level features rich hardwood floors and abundant natural light. At the heart of the home is a chef's kitchen with premium appliances, generous counter space, and a charming breakfast nook. The adjacent dining area is ideal for entertaining, while the spacious living room?anchored by an oversized gas fireplace?creates an inviting gathering space. A cozy sitting area and well-designed mudroom add both style and practicality. Upstairs, the serene primary suite enjoys peaceful water views and a luxurious en suite bath with a glass shower. Two additional bedrooms share a full bath. The 2nd floor also includes a tranquil sitting room with an adjoining balcony overlooking the water, as well as a dedicated office. A sturdy ladder leads to the rooftop deck, offering sweeping water views and a truly special vantage point.
