The Fairlawn

Our homes were named for historic, famous estates. The Fairlawn Estate in Newport, Rhode Island, a 3-story brick home built in the mid-1800s, was the summer house for a Boston attorney. Situated along the picturesque coastline, The Fairlawn Estate stands as a beacon of timeless elegance and architectural splendor. This stately mansion, steeped in history and prestige, captures the essence of Gilded Age opulence with its exquisite architectural details and breathtaking ocean views. For decades in the early 1900s it served as a school, but since has been returned to a private residence. It is best known for its mirrored ballroom and Tiffany-stained glass windows.

The architectural style of The Fairlawn Estate can be best described as a blend of Beaux-Arts and Classical Revival influences, characterized by its symmetrical façade, grand columns, and ornate detailing. Arriving at the gated entrance sets the tone for the grandeur and sophistication within the home.

The mansion’s palatial interior has soaring ceilings, marble floors, and gilded accents that exude an air of refinement and grace. The spacious rooms are adorned with intricate moldings, elegant chandeliers, and antique furnishings, creating a sense of timeless beauty and charm. The sprawling grounds of The Fairlawn Estate offer sweeping views of the Atlantic Ocean and meticulously manicured gardens that provide a serene backdrop for outdoor gatherings and leisurely strolls. The estate’s waterfront location offers unparalleled access to Newport’s vibrant yachting scene, making it the perfect retreat for those who appreciate the finer things in life.
