Editor's Note
"Stone House" is a crenellated 1898 pile built by photographer Ernest Walter Histed, sitting on a nearly-four-acre stretch of Prices Neck Peninsula that runs ocean-to-cove just off Ocean Drive. Seven bedrooms and 5,357 sqft in the main house, plus a guest cottage, gym, sauna, private beach, and a dock with two moorings — the $3,341/sqft ask is buying the land and the address as much as the walls. Lotline pegs the close at $17.5M against a $17.9M ask, which is about as close as trophy Newport waterfront ever comes to negotiable.
