About 16 Sherman St

A grand two-family residence in the heart of Newport's Historic Hill, 16 Sherman offers approximately 3,600 square feet of living space with six bedrooms and three full baths.Its scale, private outdoor areas and exceptional walkability create a rare opportunity for owner-occupancy, or investment in one of Newport's most desirable neighborhoods. The expansive main residence occupies the first two floors and would make an impressive owner's unit.Traditionally Newport in character, it features high ceilings, generously proportioned rooms, original architectural details and higher-end finishes.

Recent improvements to the property include a new roof, updated electrical systems, professionally engineered foundation reinforcement and extensive landscaping.Off-street parking for two cars and an EV charger add everyday convenience.
