Property Description
The Windmill House! This charming 1760 Cape Cod Style home enjoys a wonderful corner setting near Burr's Hill Park. Perched above the East Bay Bike Path, it is just up the hill from the town beach and park. While the windmill that once stood nearby is long gone, the house was relocated to this site in 1841 and remains a treasured Warren landmark. Thoughtful updates, including dormers added in 2011 and a sunroom addition completed in 2021, have enhanced the home's space and natural light while preserving its historic character. With wide-board flooring throughout, the first floor offers a circular flow from the front hall through the fireplaced living room, kitchen, dining room, study (bedroom)and continues through the sunroom and around into a den/potential first-floor bedroom, with a full bath nearby. The second floor features a spectacular primary bedroom, a second bedroom, a convenient laundry area, and a spacious full bath with a walk-in shower. The basement includes a finished home office along with storage and utility space. Professionally designed gardens create a private outdoor retreat with distinctive plantings, winding brick paths, a patio, and a garden shed. Additional improvements include solar panels, a generator, a gas-fired boiler, and mini-splits for heating and air conditioning. A true Warren gem, the Windmill House offers historic character, thoughtful modern updates, and easy living in one of Rhode Island's most artistically creative and charming coastal communities.
