LISTING DETAILS
Built in 1881, "Aufenthalt" is a significant shingle style home in the Kay-Catherine area of Newport. It is listed on the National Register of Historic Places Inventory Nomination Form, as a 2-1/2 story Queen Anne house. The architect was Clarence S. Luce. The exterior of the original house was light-colored, sanded stucco contrasting with both wood trim and shingling. The rambling style buildings of this period exhibited beautiful craftsmanship and always had a connection to the outdoors. This is evident today after the present owner completed both the interior and exterior restoration.
Built as the summer residence of Mrs Letitia B. Sargent, the property sits on .30 acres and is an in-town house for a large family, a buyer who likes to entertain, and/or the possibility of a Bed and Breakfast with approval of the Zoning Board. Within walking distance to Bellevue Avenue, Touro Street, and downtown, it is ideal for those who like to park their cars and enjoy Newport in pedestrian lifestyle. The home has 7 bedrooms, 5-1/2 baths, exquisite details throughout, a large yard to entertain, and a 3-car garage.
