CALLING ALL HISTORIC PRESERVATIONISTS!! Come see this magnificent 1710 historic Colonial! A National Register property, the Waterman-Winsor House has been meticulously restored over the past 45 years by the current owners under the guidance of one of RI’s foremost restoration architects. With beautiful barns, it was once home to a 100+ acre apple farm, and the house itself consists of two 18th century houses joined together in the late 1700s.

The full height basement is even beautiful, with an oil boiler (10 years) with 8 zones to efficiently control baseboard heat throughout the house.

The barns provide garage spaces, general storage, and room on two levels for artists’ studio spaces. The former Cider Mill on the property has a heated workshop/office. There is a winter pond for ice skating, 3 apple trees from the old Apple King days, and massive sugar maple trees lining the street and waiting for you to tap to make your very own syrup!!
