RPL Closes Multimillion-Dollar Sale of Jamestown Contemporary Cottage

Residential Properties Ltd. is excited to announce the sale of 25 Walnut Street in Jamestown for $3,295,000. RPL Sales Associate Jim DeRentis represented the seller in this transaction.

According to State-Wide MLS data, this is the fifth highest single-family home sale in Jamestown year to date. RPL has participated in three of the top 5 single-family sales in Jamestown so far this year, more than any other firm.

This exquisite, 4-bedroom, 3.1-bath Shingle-style residence, moments from the water in the coveted Ocean Highlands/Dumplings neighborhood, is reminiscent of Jamestown’s iconic late-19th-century summer cottages. Designed by the architectural firm Shope Reno Wharton, a welcoming elliptical foyer adorned with an eclectic tray ceiling and accent lighting creates instant allure. The living room features a gas fireplace with an original glass mantel designed by renowned artist Howard Ben Tre. The spacious kitchen includes a delightful breakfast nook with banquette seating, while the dining room opens gracefully to a covered porch with sweeping views of Mackerel Cove. Upstairs, the primary suite has west-facing windows and a spa-like bath, providing a serene retreat. A custom wood-accented study offers flexibility as an additional bedroom or private office. Outside, mature landscaping ensures privacy, while the detached garage includes a second level, ideal for a guest suite or an artist studio.

Jim DeRentis is RPL's #1 sales agent and sold more $1M listings on the East Side of Providence than any other Rhode Island agent in 2024. He has been a recipient of the Circle of Sales Excellence Platinum Plus Award each year since 2011 when he was named Rookie of the Year. For the past 11 years, Jim has been included on the “REALTrends Verified” list of the country’s top real estate professionals and in 2020 was named to “The 1000.” For the past five years consecutively, he has been named the #1 individual agent in the state for transaction sides, and according to State-Wide MLS data was the only agent to achieve $100 million in Rhode Island sales in 2024. Each year since 2022, he has earned the ranking of #1 agent in Rhode Island for transaction sides. To learn more about Jim and to view his listings, please visit ThePVDRealEstateGuy.com.
