It is a slightly lighter week for open houses across Aquidneck Island as school vacation wraps up, but with WinterFest bringing plenty of activity to town, it is actually a great time to explore the local housing market. The crowds are manageable, the weather is going to keep people inside, and buyers have the chance to tour homes thoughtfully before the Spring rush begins.
There are good opportunities across a wide range of price points this weekend, and a few listings that I am very excited about. Particularly, my own!
Michelle and I will be hosting open houses at two of our newest listings. In Middletown, join us at 23 Livingston Place on Friday from 4:00 to 5:30 PM and Saturday from 10:00 AM to 12:00 PM. This move-in ready 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom Cape sits right on the Newport and Middletown line near Vernon Park and offers a great combination of neighborhood setting and convenience. The property is listed for sale at $600,000.
On Sunday from 11:00 AM to 1:00 PM we will be at our new multi-family listing at 32 Houston Avenue in Newport’s Fifth Ward. Three family opportunities in this location rarely come to market, and this particular property sits on a 8500+ sq/ft lot. It is an excellent option for investors, owner occupants looking to offset costs, and those considering location for a large single-family conversion.
If you are searching for a home in Newport and have a healthy budget, make sure to stop by the Newport Living Group’s listing at 61 Gibbs Avenue. Carefully renovated by a local developer, the home blends original character with modern amenities and offers generous living space in a highly convenient location. I’ve been through this home twice and it does not disappoint!
For those focused on Portsmouth, 142 Ferreira Avenue presents a nearly new construction home priced under $1,500,000, a category which has remained especially competitive over the past year in that particular community.
Even during a quieter open house week, the market continues to reward prepared buyers and proactive sellers. The best opportunities often appear before the full Spring inventory arrives, and those who are out looking now tend to benefit from better decision making and less pressure.
If you are considering a move this year, now is the right time to start the conversation and build a strategy. Reach out anytime to schedule a call and consultation so you are ready before the Spring market accelerates. You can reach me directly at 401-241-1851 or via email at TylerB@resultswithremax.com.
