Residential Properties Ltd is proud to announce the sale of 24 Kay Street in Newport, which sold for $2.2 million. RPL Sales Associate Elizabeth Cooper represented the buyers as the selling agent in this transaction.

 

The La Farge Perry House is a historic home once occupied by renowned painter and stained glass artist John La Farge and his wife Margaret, the granddaughter of Oliver Hazard Perry. It was built by the Agassiz family, who also built the Inn at Castle Hill. Extraordinarily well-maintained with exceptional period detail, this circa 1853 residence was restored in 1996 by its most recent owners. At more than 5,900 square feet, the home offers an impressive 8 bedrooms, 7 full baths, and 1 half bath. This lovely abode sits in the heart of Newport's Kay-Catherine neighborhood for an easy, walkable lifestyle enjoying the restaurants, shops, beaches, and historic charm of Newport.

 

The selling agent, Elizabeth Cooper, joined Residential Properties in 2017 after 30 years in art direction and design with brands such as Hasbro, Inc., Saatchi & Saatchi, Eastman Kodak, Paramount Cards, and Vogue Magazine. She brings her exuberant love of architecture and design to the team, having consulted on interior renovations and design since 1996. Elizabeth has been a multimillion-dollar producer and received the Greater Providence Board of REALTORS® Circle of Sales Excellence Award, achieving Bronze in 2018 and Silver in 2019.
