Middletown, RI Real Estate

Middletown is the suburban, oceanfront community just north of Newport on Aquidneck Island. Whereas Newport is an urban, densely populated (and beautiful) city, Middletown is just a mile up the road, where Aquidneck opens up for some breathing room. It’s home to the best public beaches in the East Bay area, gorgeous oceanfront landscapes, the U.S. Undersea Warfare Center, plus many restaurants and shopping areas. Plus, all of Newport’s amenities are only minutes away!

What's it like to live in Middletown

Shopping & Things To Do

Middletown residents have all of their shopping needs within a few miles. Since Newport is so densely populated, many of the large retail stores are located along the main roads in Middletown and Portsmouth. Route 114 and Route 138 have several plazas and shopping centers, including stores like Shaws, Stop & Shop, The Christmas Tree Shop, CVS, West Marine, The Home Depot, Ocean State Job Lot, and more. This makes it very easy for Middletown residents to get what they need without having to travel far.

Newport Vineyards

Everything you can expect from Newport Vineyards comes from their tagline —  “Bringing the Napa Experience to Newport”. The original vines for the vineyard were planted in 1977 and have since expanded to over 60 acres. This is a fantastic place to visit for a tour and wine tasting, see a live event, or try their highly-regarded restaurant, Brix. The winery also houses Taproot Brewery, where you can try (and buy) their farmhouse ales.

Sweet Berry Farm

A farmhouse market and café situated on 100 acres of conserved farmland. They’re located only a short distance from downtown Newport and the island’s beaches. They sell freshly grown seasonal fruits, vegetables, cut flowers, as well as a variety of gourmet and specialty foods. You can also catch a live music show here and pick your own berries straight from the vine.

Prescott Farm

A historically-preserved, colonial-era farm that is open to the public daily from dawn till dusk. The landscape, farmhouse, and equipment is laid out as it would have been in the 18th and 19th centuries. Get a guided tour of the grounds and learn about its history!

Restaurants & Nightlife

Being so close to Newport, Middletown residents have nearly endless options for fantastic restaurants and bars. And yet there are restaurants in town that are just as good as what you’ll find in downtown Newport. The beachfront area by First Beach and Memorial Boulevard has great seafood and bars, including the Atlantic Grille, Rusty’s, Tickets, and more.

Recreation & Activities

Newport National Golf Club

A public access 18-hole golf course located in Middletown. It’s been rated as the “number one public access course in New England” by New England golf magazine. Golfweek Magazine also placed the course in the “top twenty new courses in America” list soon after its opening.

St. Columba’s Cricket Club

Newport’s only cricket club and community. You can visit their matches throughout the season, get a lesson, or bring your kids to learn and play. The home field is Dr. Arnow Cricket Field located near Third Beach. They invite five to seven other teams to participate and compete for the SCCC Invitational Trophy every year. The tournament is held over approximately three weekends with varying dates.

Sachuest Point National Wildlife Refuge

Occupying a peninsula between the Sakonnet River and Rhode Island sound, the 242-acre refuge is a very popular site for the over 65,000 annual visitors each year. It has a newly renovated visitor center, over 2.5 miles of nature trails, viewing platforms, and a number of volunteers present to help visitors.

Norman Bird Sanctuary

A wildlife sanctuary and environmental education center with more than 325 acres of diverse habitats and 7 miles of hiking trails. The Sanctuary offers summer camps, public programs, and a 16-room farmhouse for vacationing and events.

Purgatory Chasm

A beautiful chasm cut into the middle of the high cliffs above Sachuest Bay. See great views of Second Beach and look down into the chasm from above. Be careful, though. The chasm is not roped off and it’s dangerous to get too close to the edge.
