“I was privileged to have the opportunity to sell ‘Wishing Rocks’, a beautiful and much beloved Jim Estes designed home, sited on 3.5 acres with stunning views overlooking Narragansett Bay and southwest towards the open ocean,” said Cresser. “It was a pleasure to work with the original owners and to connect them to buyers who fell in love with the views, superior craftsmanship, and architecture of the home.”

‘Wishing Rocks’, a waterfront home privately sited off of Beavertail Rd., offers 180 feet of water frontage. This four bedroom, three and one half bath home has won awards and has been featured in several design publications. Distinguished by an elongated gambrel roof and truncated tower, the house is situated to face the southwest towards the open ocean and Block Island for views and sunsets. The foyer is flanked by the kitchen and dining area that lead to a curved staircase. The two-story living room has a stone fireplace and board and batten ceiling spanning across to the 2nd floor hallway and above the foyer. The primary bedroom has views, a spa-like bathroom, and balcony. Two additional bedrooms, a full bath, an office space, and bonus room complete the second floor. ‘Wishing Rocks’ is energy efficient with radiant heat and solar panels. The property has gardens, stone walls, and two pathways to the beach.
