The Property

Originally constructed as a two-family, purposely designed today as a grand single family residence. Built by Hezekiah Church Wardwell, a local lumber merchant and banker who was born in Bristol in 1791. It is believed Hezekiah & his son, William, used this home as a showcase for the variety of beautiful hardwood floors. Famed colorist, Mary Cooper of New Orleans, chose the fearless use of colors throughout the home as a guiding light to the home’s architectural features.

In addition to creating a line of sight, Ms. Cooper selected a bold color pattern that gradually softens. Celestial light blue ceilings give the allusion of an inside secret garden. The walls with intricate curves were preserved with archival wallpaper over plaster. Spacious foyer with breathtaking vaulted ceilings and crown molding, affords a nice ebb & flow to the more formal living quarters with dramatic windows. The kitchen as seen now was added in 1900. The second floor has a more casual vibe with plenty of room to relax. Many period details include marble decorative fireplaces, dentil molding, and detailed wall panels. Versatile floor plan gives options for bedroom selections on both floors. A full third floor proper walkup with full bath and balcony has untapped potential! Off-street parking, two car garage, patio, and yard. Located in downtown Bristol with corridor water views of Narragansett Bay it is conveniently close to shops, restaurants, and East Bay Bike Path. This Colonial exudes personality!
