Built in 1908, “Belle Terre” is a historic residence on over 10 acres. It was once part of a 100-acre heritage farm, more than 50 acres of which are currently preserved in perpetuity.

According to data from the Multiple Listing Service, this is the second highest priced sale in South Kingstown this year. Agents of Mott & Chace Sotheby’s International Realty also represented both buyer and seller in the highest priced sale.

 “This is an awe-inspiring oasis in the middle of Wakefield,” said Philbrick. “The entry foyer has a stunning barrel vaulted ceiling and a grand staircase. Original hardwood floors on both levels were milled from beech trees located on site. It is simply one of a kind.”

“There is a special combination of charm and history here,” said Kermes. “I am so happy for my clients as they become the next stewards of this exceptional property.”
