12 Bliss Road

This beautiful, traditional New England cottage, located in a residential Newport neighborhood, is now offered as a rare yearly rental option. Impeccably restored and updated with the utmost attention to modern living, “Bliss Cottage” offers designer furnishings, high-end fixtures, and a functional flow. Enter through the charming wrap-around front porch, through a Dutch door into a graceful entryway. To the left, you’ll find a light-filled living room with a wood-burning fireplace. Next, flow into sunny reading room/den, with built-in shelving, that is seamlessly integrated into the perfectly appointed kitchen. The custom kitchen is a chef’s dream with a large, center island where your guests can gather. Past the kitchen is an island-inspired formal dining room and a botanical wall-papered powder room. Past the kitchen and dining is a mudroom-laundry room. From there, continue out to an enchanting outdoor oasis featuring an expansive blue stone patio for dining and lounging, an outdoor kitchen- affectionately named “the Grille Shed” and a flat, grassy lawn surrounded by lush landscaping. Upstairs, a tasteful primary suite accompanies two other well-sized bedrooms which share a hall bathroom, plus a bright and inspirational office. The primary bedroom, designed with style and sophistication, offers a neutral palette and boasts a private balcony overlooking the backyard. From the bedroom, walk through a large walk-in closet into a tiled full bath with walk-in, glass shower. With efficient gas heat, central air conditioning, gorgeous natural light and plenty of parking, this special cottage would be a delightful place to call “home” for the year.
