If you’ve been searching for a move-in-ready home on Aquidneck Island that balances classic cottage details, location, and opportunity, this is the one. Located on the corner of Morrison Avenue and Aquidneck Avenue, 549 Aquidneck Avenue is a well maintained 3-bedroom, 1.5-bathroom cottage set on an oversized 14,000+ square foot lot, just minutes from both First and Second Beach.
With easy driveway access from both Aquidneck and Morrison, the home is tucked back from the road complete with lush landscaping, and a fenced-in yard perfect for outdoor entertaining, your four legged friends, or just enjoying a quiet evening on your back patio. There’s even a detached garage with epoxy flooring to store your toys, an additional storage shed for your landscaping equipment, and a designated parking pad for your boat, trailer, or RV.
Step inside and you’ll find a traditional layout with a double parlor, hardwood floors, and a dine-in kitchen featuring a galley prep area and farmhouse sink. A convenient half bath rounds out the first floor. Upstairs, three bedrooms, a walk-in closet, and a fully renovated tiled bathroom offer both comfort and functionality.
“This is one of the few truly move-in-ready homes in this price range right now,” says listing agent Tyler Bernadyn. “You can bike to the beach, walk to get your morning coffee, and with the size of the lot there’s plenty of room for future expansion. This home has been lovingly maintained by a great local family for many years, and you can tell from the moment you walk in the door.”
Notable updates include a new well pump, updated electrical with generator hookup, new oil tank, vinyl replacement windows, and an 8-year-old boiler, making this cottage as functional as it is charming. All the ‘big ticket items’ have already been addressed, and any further investment would be cosmetic or future development on your property like a garage or accessory dwelling unit. With a low-maintenance exterior and thoughtful upgrades throughout, this home is ready for its next chapter.
Don’t miss the public open house this Saturday from 10:00-11:30, a perfect chance to see everything this property has to offer in person. Whether you’re a first-time buyer, looking for a summer getaway, or planning your next move, 549 Aquidneck Avenue deserves a spot on your must-see list. You can check out the listing here.
