Welcome to your private compound in North Kingstown. Photograph by Jim Traskos/West End Media.
Dream of owning horses but just can’t find enough room in your suburban digs?
You’ll find the perfect retreat in this gorgeous Saunderstown estate, which features six beds, 3½ baths and four fireplaces and comes with twenty-five perfectly manicured acres and expansive views of the Narrow River.
“It’s a great property for anyone who seeks privacy, loves natures and horses,” says listing agent Nicole Maine of Lila Delman Compass.
Built in 1926, the Tudor-inspired property still bears hints of the original craftsmanship in the leaded glass windows, the wooden beams slung across the ceiling, a grand foyer with curving staircase and rounded doorways and windows. The home has been in the same family for forty years, Maine says. During those years, the family always had horses, which the three children and family and friends rode on the expansive grounds.
Did we mention the home has a turret with a spectacular view of the Narrow River?
“My favorite part of the property is the stone turret,” Maine says. “At the very top of it is a circular room full of windows where you can really enjoy the views to the Narrow River. It’s a great place to enjoy the magic and splendor the property has to offer.”

It’s topped with a weathervane in the shape of a three-masted sailing vessel — a nod to the family’s love of sailing.
Let’s not forget the horse stable, which also houses a six-car garage with guest living quarters on the upper level. And if you fancy yourself a plant parent, the greenhouse will help you develop your green thumb.
The home is located at 2180 Tower Hill Rd. in North Kingstown. It’s listed at $3.5 million. Nicole Maine and Patrick Farrell of the Local Group with Lila Delman Compass are the listing agents.
