Mizzentop, a summer beach house in Wesquage, Narragansett, overlooks Narragansett Bay and Bonnet Shores with a view of the island of Jamestown and historic Beavertail Lighthouse (the first lighthouse to be built in Rhode Island). This lovely homestead features amazing beach views with a stairway leading to Wesquage's private beach with its own lifeguard and gate guard. Play in tide pools, catch a crab or a starfish and gather seashells by day, or walk the beach in the moonlight.
The half acre yard, with lots of room to play, has a fully furnished patio and gas grill. Mizzentop's first floor includes a large dining/sitting room with beach views, fully equipped kitchen with pantry and refrigerator/freezer, living room with TV, wet bar, lavette (half bath) and laundry room. The bath house is a unique feature of the home with a hot water shower, 2 dressing stalls and beach chairs. The second floor houses a large master bedroom with a queen bed and picture window with panoramic beach views, two additional bedrooms, each with a set of twin beds, and a fourth bedroom with a queen bed. The second floor also has a full bath with dual sinks. The beach house is a short walk to local restaurants and an ice cream shop. Relax, play, and soak up Mizzentop's charm!
Fun fact: Mizzentop was named for the mizzenmast on schooners which are often spotted on Bonnet Bay as they sail past the lighthouse out of Newport Harbor.
