460 Ocean Road, Narragansett — the 1880 stone and shingle residence at the end of its drive
Narragansett  ·  Rhode Island

460 Ocean Road

A circa-1880 residence of the historic Windermere Estate, on 2.84 parklike acres in the Ocean Road Historic District.

Properties like this are rarely offered — and almost never this private. This one comes with the record to match.

Between 2015 and 2017 the property was taken down to its systems and rebuilt — plumbing, electrical, septic, heat, structure — then extended with a full carriage-house conversion and a private saltwater pool.

The house

Circa 1880

Set on a rare 2.84-acre parklike parcel in Narragansett, this distinguished circa-1880 residence, once part of the historic Windermere Estate, offers nearly 9,000 square feet of refined multi-generational coastal living. The home features 6 en-suite bedrooms, 3 half baths, and seven fireplaces, blending original character with extensive modern updates throughout.

The property was meticulously restored to its original design in 2015 by Couture Design Associates, and has since benefited from major improvements including updated plumbing and electrical systems, a replaced septic system, repaved driveway, updated HVAC, new water heaters, structural restoration, new exterior shingles, custom millwork, whole house generator, and additional living and entertaining spaces.

Outdoor living is equally impressive, with expansive landscaped grounds and a private 18′ × 40′ saltwater pool with a pebble sheen finish and automatic retractable cover. A detached garage with second-floor full bar and media room, complemented by an outdoor shower, pergola, and beautifully maintained gardens, provides the perfect setting for entertainment and relaxation.

With its estate-scale acreage, historic pedigree and extensive renovations, 460 Ocean Road presents a truly unique opportunity in Narragansett’s coastal market.

Why it holds

Four things that cannot be replicated
Land

2.84 acres with 314 feet of frontage

Ocean Road’s remaining estate parcels are overwhelmingly under an acre. Multi-acre land in this district is not being created, and R-80 zoning protects the setting on every side.

Risk

Flood Zone X

The site sits outside the Special Flood Hazard Area — no federally mandated flood insurance, and none of the coastal exposure carried by the oceanfront properties it competes against.

Condition

Independently rated C2

A 2026 appraisal placed the improvements at C2 — the designation reserved for a property recently and completely renovated — with an effective age of 20 years against an actual age of 146.

Provenance

The Windermere Estate

An 1880 house inside the Ocean Road Historic District, with its original stonework, chimneys and floor plan intact after a decade of restoration rather than replacement.

Offered privately.

Showings by appointment. Full renovation documentation, the 2026 appraisal and the contractor’s line-item schedule are available to qualified buyers and their representatives on request.
