Property Description

Nestled beside the 26-acre Godena Farm, forever protected from development and part of the Conanicut Island Land Trust, this charming circa-1900 cottage offers privacy, character, and opportunity on a beautiful one-acre lot. Mature trees, classic stone walls, and a peaceful setting create a quiet retreat just off the bike path and approximately three miles from Jamestown Village. Featuring three bedrooms and one and a half baths, the home is ready for its next owner's vision. Neighboring 26 acres of protected conservation land, the property enjoys a rare sense of privacy and natural beauty while maintaining convenient access to town. With its timeless cottage charm, picturesque setting, and endless potential, this is a unique opportunity to reimagine or restore a classic Jamestown home.
