One of RI's Oldest Homes Is Now for Sale -- Built in 1696 and Restored in 2022
One of Rhode Island's oldest homes has been restored, and it is now an amazing blend of history and new amenities. The "Crown Jewel" of Stone Enders is now for sale. This stunning historic home, known as the "Valentine Whitman House", was originally built in 1696 and has just been carefully and thoughtfully restored by Preserve Rhode Island and Heritage Restoration.
A perfect balance was struck between modern needs and the preservation of historic fabric. The interior is crisp, clean and bright. The rooms are large and spacious with good ceiling height.
There are several decorative fireplaces throughout the house, while the kitchen is fun and well laid out. There is a bedroom or office located on the first floor along with a beautiful half bath, large living room and lovely dining room with a tin ceiling and warm pine floors. Upstairs, the bright and spacious second floor showcases an owner's bedroom connected to a luxurious bath a with walk-in shower and soaking tub. This level also includes another home office/nursery as well as a third large bedroom. Preservationists will appreciate the original "decorative graining treatments' that have been lovingly preserved. All mechanicals including heat, a/c, electrical and plumbing, are new and state-of-the-art, as is the Red Cedar wood shake roof. This special home sits on a 1.09 acre lot that has a "park like" feel and is ready for gardens and landscaping.
