5 Gounod Rd, Westerly, RI 02891

Walk the same paths and savor the same seaside views as the early twentieth century musicians and artists that settled this private enclave once known as the Music Colony. Still just as serene and scenic, the Shelter Harbor community provides quiet lanes, a designated swimming area with lifeguard at grove dock. Shelter Harbor residents have beach access at Weekapaug’s Barrier Beach. Slip into your kayak to fish, rake for clams, bird watch and explore the coves of Quonochontaug Pond. This sun-soaked home is pristine and ready for you to settle in and start living a relaxing, coastal lifestyle. There are lush landscaped gardens throughout the almost half acre lot. The house offers plenty of living spaces filled with abundant natural light. Wake to the sunrise bright in the living/sunroom and enjoy full sun all day long in the dining room, kitchen & outdoor deck. The modern kitchen has wood cabinetry, quartz countertops and stainless appliances. The dining room with gas fireplace opens to the kitchen, both linked by golden hardwood floors. A fully finished lower level also stays bright all day. Double sliding doors walk out to the back yard and an outdoor shower. No need for flood insurance, a two-car garage and a full house generator are more added perks. The historic Shelter Harbor Inn anchors the entrance to the community and provides a gracious place to dine, socialize, host gatherings and hold special events. Truly a classic neighborhood setting.
