Residential Properties Ltd. takes pride in announcing the sale of 8 Ocean View Highway in Watch Hill, which sold for $3.2 million. RPL Broker Associate Michelle Shevlin represented the buyers as the selling agent in this transaction.
"Rock Rose" is a beautiful estate in the Westerly village of Watch Hill. Set on nearly 2.5 acres of stately wooded, hilly grounds only steps from East Beach, the home was originally built in 1920 for Rhode Island industrialist A.T. Wall and his wife Mary Brooks Wall, whose family co-founded clothing retailer Brooks Brothers. The property features 9 bedrooms and 6.5 baths spread out over 4 stories and 5,400 square feet with grand views of the Atlantic Ocean. A bright, solidly built home cooled by the sea breeze during the summer, it also provides a warm and cozy retreat in winter with a sturdy, stucco exterior. Interior spaces dazzle with soaring, high ceilings, a giant living room, and an elegant formal dining room. Greater Westerly is home to a fabulous concentration of Rhode Island coastal charm. Majestic beaches and seaside restaurants provide the vibrant backdrop to this exclusive area. Only a short drive from Wilcox Park, the property offers convenient access to Westerly’s wide array of locally owned shops.
