Black Pearl is a Grand Newport Stay Near Bellevue and Harbor
About the Home
Housed within the former billiards room of Heartsease, a historic Victorian residence designed by George Champlin Mason in 1873, this two bedroom Newport stay pairs striking original detail with an easy in town location. Soaring ceilings, carved millwork, hardwood floors, updated kitchen, private entry, shared outdoor space, and parking for one car give guests a distinctive place to stay near Bellevue Avenue, Broadway, downtown, and the harbor, with shoreline walks and Newport energy nearby too. Original detail is what sets this residence apart. The main room rises to a 13 foot curved ceiling framed by carved molding, with polished hardwood floors below and dark walls that sharpen the white architectural trim. Bubble chandeliers bring in a more current note, while the fireplace mantel and scale of the room keep its history present in a way that still feels livable for a short stay. The kitchen has been updated with white quartz counters and backsplash, a French door GE refrigerator, dishwasher, and a built in wine and beverage chiller. It feels fresh and current without pulling attention from the older detail that gives the home its identity. The primary bedroom includes a king bed, high ceilings, original wainscoting, and two large closets. The second bedroom is set with two double beds, giving the layout flexibility for family or friends sharing the stay. The renovated bath has a floating vanity, subway tile, penny tile, and a shower over tub. Guests enter through a private separate entrance and also have access to shared outdoor spaces, a porch, dedicated parking for one car, and onsite laundry. This part of Newport makes it easy to settle into the city. Bellevue Avenue is nearby for landmark homes and cliffside views, Broadway brings restaurants and cafés, and downtown leads you toward the harbor, shops, and waterfront activity. It is a strong location for guests who want a stay with real character and easy access to the parts of Newport people come for. Ayrault Street places you in one of Newport’s most appealing residential pockets, where grand old homes line the streets and some of the city’s best known places are close at hand. Bellevue Avenue is nearby for landmark mansions and cliffside walks, while Broadway brings restaurants, cafés, and a more local side of town. Downtown Newport and the harbor are also within easy reach, giving you a strong home base for summer stays, wedding weekends, and long coastal getaways.
