The coast set the pace in the Providence metro area for the week ending October 18, 2026. These are the highest-priced home sales reported for the period, and together the five came to $16.539 million. Four are in Washington County, in Block Island, Charlestown, Narragansett and South Kingstown, and the fifth is in Providence.
The group runs from a beach-community home built in 1950 to one finished in 2025, and in two of the five sales the same agent was on both sides.
No. 1 — $6,750,000 · 1596 W Side Rd, Block Island, Rhode Island
The week’s top sale is on Block Island’s West Side, where a shingled Colonial on a cul-de-sac sold for $6,750,000. Preserved land surrounds the property on all sides, and the water views look west across the Atlantic toward the far-off shores of Rhode Island, Connecticut and New York.
Built in 2008, the home has 4,591 square feet of living space, the largest in this Top 5, on a 1.98-acre lot that is also the largest of the five. It has five bedrooms and six bathrooms, five full and one half, which is the most of the group. Hardwood floors run through the rooms, and there are two fireplaces. The primary suite has a private terrace with a view of the ocean and the open land.
Outdoors there is an in-ground pool, a barbecue and a travertine patio for dining outside. Stone walls wind across the land. Below, a full basement is partly finished and includes a playroom, a workshop, laundry and storage. The property last sold for $750,000 in 2001, before the current house was built.
The home sold at its full asking price of $6.75 million. Rosemary TOBIN of Lila Delman Compass was the listing agent, and Cindy Pappas of Sullivan Sotheby’s Intl.Realty represented the buyer.

No. 2 — $3,150,000 · 14 Bayview Rd, Charlestown, Rhode Island
In Charlestown, 14 Bayview Road is in Quonochontaug Central Beach, a waterfront community where the beach is a few steps away. Built in 1950, it is the oldest home in this group, and it sits on a wooded corner double lot of 0.32 acres with mature plantings. It sold for $3,150,000.
The home has five bedrooms, four bathrooms, three full and one half, and 3,196 square feet of living space. The open main floor centers on a great room with a fieldstone fireplace, a chef’s kitchen and a dining area with a fireplace of its own. French limestone floors, marble baths and crown molding 18 inches deep show the level of finish. A screened three-season porch and a large deck open the rooms to the outdoors, and the primary suite upstairs opens onto a private deck with a hot tub.
Over the two-car garage is a guest house with two bedrooms, a marble bath and a sitting area. The Central Beach community has its own private beach, with parking, along with courts for tennis and basketball, a playground and a ball field. Residents can also reach a salt pond used for kayaking, paddleboarding, clamming and fishing, and a breachway leads from it to the ocean. The property last sold for $300,000 in 1998.
The home went under contract six days after it was listed. Michael HIMMEL of Mott & Chace Sotheby’s Intl. was the listing agent and also represented the buyer, so the same agent was on both sides of the sale. Mott & Chace Sotheby’s Intl. listed two of this week’s Top 5, this one and the No. 3 sale in Narragansett.
