West Greenwich, RI Real Estate
Who said the waterfront is the most attractive locale in Rhode Island? Take a few steps westward into the lush forests and backroads of southern New England and discover West Greenwich. Here you’ll find numerous outdoor recreation spots — hunting, nature walks, freshwater quarries, mountain bike trails, and more. Plus, I-95 runs directly through the eastern portion of West Greenwich, making it more accessible than its neighboring western RI towns.
The real estate market in West Greenwich is similar to other western RI towns like Exeter, Hope Valley, Coventry, and Burrillville.

Restaurants & Nightlife
West Greenwich isn’t much of a “dining destination.” Its main attractions fall under recreations and outdoor activities. That said, you will find a few restaurants in town that serve top-notch, casual fare. If you’re looking for something a little fancier, the East Greenwich waterfront hotspot is only a short drive away from most areas.
