Designed by famed architect Dudley Newton "Sunnylea Mansion" is filled with period detail. The condominium unit offered is located facing Bellevue Ave, first and second floor including the covered wrap around veranda. The porch faces the renowned Rosecliff mansion. Sunnylea sits back from the road on a private 1 acre plus lot, but its within walking distance to shops and the tennis hall of fame. The current owners spent over one year renovating the unit with an eye for detail not commonly found. Upgrades include: Plumbing, heating, air conditioning, electrical, baths and kitchen. Great care was taken to hide modern upgrades as to not interfere with the units design and originality.Fixtures were sourced from other Newport mansions over time as to maintain its original period elegance. Luxury enhancements included the addition of radiant heating under marble floors in all the bathrooms. Solid brass fixtures with crystal controls give an indication of the owners attention to detail during the renovation process.An expertly designed kitchen equipped with Viking appliances bring modern convenience yet flow well with the units design. The 3 fireplaces were converted to gas and must be seen to appreciate the care and detail taken to restore them. Truly a unique opportunity to purchase not only a historic property, in an iconic location, add to that a fresh professionally done complete renovation. Words cannot do this property justice, come and see the magic.
