New WATERFRONT home in Portsmouth!

Welcome to Sea Change Cottage!
(Please see my other property #9263812 for reviews, this house does not have reviews yet)
This lovely home has been completely renovated top to bottom, a keen eye for design and attention to details has transformed this former cottage into a special coastal retreat.
The house has dual mini splits Heat/AC systems for comfortable climate control during any time of year. Of course there is always fabulous ocean breezes in the summer!

This waterfront property has direct water access to the Sakonnet River, which is a salt water bay that leads to the Atlantic Ocean. Enjoy swimming, kayaking, boating, sailing, or other water sports, 2 kayaks with life jackets are provided for use during your stay. The local beach is walking distance from the house and beach chairs, wagon and small cooler are provided with rental.
The spacious exterior deck is the perfect spot to take in the breath taking views and soak up the sun. There’s an outdoor shower to rinse off after a day at the beach.

The open concept living space offers spectacular panoramic views to enjoy at any time of day. The modern farmhouse coastal decor provides a relaxed atmosphere where you can put your feet up (yes, on the coffee table!), enjoy a cup of coffee/tea or glass of wine in the evening. On cooler nights, put on the gas fireplace to make it more cozy to curl up with a book or watch a movie on the large screen TV.

The living room also features a tucked away built-in desk with seating for 2 people in the event you need to set up a computer during your stay, the high speed internet (300 MBps) allows for easy connectivity. There’s plenty of work space to spread out your equipment, with extra outlets.

The well equipped kitchen has modern full size stainless steel appliances, quartz countertops, a big farmhouse sink and the neccessary utensils to prepare any meals at home.
The boutique beverage cooler can keep your beer, wine and soft drinks cold without taking up room in the fridge. The large farmhouse style table can comfortably accommodate 6+ people, and has a butterfly leaf to expand for 8 persons, if hosting friend’s.

There is also full size Washer/Dryer and plenty of storage for food in the panty next to the kitchen tasteful hidden behind a barn door.

The “Master suite” on the 2nd floor offers a queen bed on the ocean side to listen to the waves while you fall asleep. The additional sitting room has 2 comfortable recliners and large TV with soundbar. The spacious bathroom has a very large walk in shower and plenty of storage for towels and toiletries.

All of the bedrooms offer plenty of storage with dressers and ample closet space.
All bed linens, towels (bath, kitchen and beach) are included for your stay.

Conveniently located on Aquidneck Island, Portsmouth allows easy access to major routes for day tripping excursions. Newport is a short 20 min drive and other local seaside communities. Bristol, is a quick 15 minute drive over the historic Mt Hope Bridge, home to Roger Williams University and the country’s oldest 4th of July celebration! Other local attractions, such a Newport Vineyards, Newport Mansions, Polo matches on Saturdays, Newport Jazz Festival, experience the rich history of Providence. Several local golf courses and of course the fabulous beaches are all close by! There are many fabulous restaurants to choose from offering the farm to table cuisine. Despite Rhode Island being the smallest state, there’s always lots to do! Come enjoy all Little Rhody has to offer!

Absolutely Perfect!
This property is amazing! Very clean, well decorated, cozy and new. We were amazed at the attention to details. Everything was well thought out, down to chip clips in the kitchen drawer. We have stayed at many VRBO's, this one was the best. The pots, pans, plates silverware and everything else in the kitchen was of good quality and everything was included. We really felt like we were home, not in a rental. Well done!

As pictured
Quiet neighborhood, pleasant waterfront ambiance, beautiful sunrise. The home is exactly as pictured, even more beautiful in person very clean and comfortable. We were a family of 5 adults with plenty of space. There is a nice area to walk in the neighborhood/by the water. Took the kayaks out in the morning which was very nice!! Close to Newport. Noelle is a very attentive and thoughtful host. You can tell she really wants her guests to enjoy themselves and have a nice getaway. Would definitely recommend if you want a relaxing getaway!

10/10 stay!
Gorgeous house! It is just like the photos, if not better. Newly renovated, SOOO clean, and such a great location right on the water. The property manager was great to communicate with and answered messages super fast. Location is SO close to great restaurants, beaches, and everything we wanted to do. Family friendly home. The outside deck is new and so nice to relax on. There is also patio furniture down on the water and I believe there was kayaks in the shed but we never ended up using them. The property manager thought of everything. The house is STOCKED with everything you could possibly need. We would definitely stay here again if we do another trip to RI.

Summer family vacation
We stayed at this lovely home in Portsmouth RI for our family summer vacation. The home was newly renovated and it was beautiful. The inside was wonderfully decorated, the beds and furniture were comfy and the kitchen was well stocked. We took advantage of the outdoor seating by the water and the 2 kayaks that came with the rental. Noelle the owner promptly responded to any question or concern we had prior to our vacation stay and even texted to check in with us after our arrival, to make sure our stay was going well. We would highly recommend this house to anyone looking to stay in the Portsmouth area. Easy drive to local vineyards, Newport and the area beaches.

Beautifully renovated/Swimming/Kayaking off back deck
We had a wonderful stay at Noelle's newly renovated house on the water. Although the ad only lists the property as "close" to beaches, we found we could walk right into the water off of the back deck with a pair of water shoes. So my nine-year-old son had a blast kayaking and swimming morning to night without the trouble of any trip to the beach. The house itself is not only beautifully renovated and tastefully decorated, but it's generously provisioned with everything we could have thought to ask for on our vacation. And Noelle was a perfect host: making sure we knew where everything was, but not intruding into our family vacation time. If you go, make sure you take a morning run or walk on the breathtaking trails at the Sachuest National Wildlife Sanctuary (a short drive to the South).

Lovely home - relaxing stay
What an amazing, lovely place to relax! It has all the comforts of home and more. It is clean, nicely decorated and equipped with everything you need. The view from the living room was absolutely mesmerizing and peaceful. It is indeed a waterfront property—you step-off the lower patio right into the bay. Our family loved being able to journey into the water with the provided kayaks. Communication with the kind owner was very easy. We appreciated the guest guide binder with lots of helpful information. We all enjoyed our stay! Thank you Noelle!

Trip to Rhode Island
This place was perfect for our getaway. Right on the water, beautiful deck overlooking the water, so peaceful you can hear the waves. The location is perfect near everything you need, 20 minutes from Newport. The property itself is immaculate, clean, cozy and just a home away from home. Highly recommend and will be staying here again.
