Please note: listing includes current and virtually renovated photos. Fire Station No. 1 is one of the city's most iconic buildings located in the heart of downtown Newport and on the National Register of Historic Properties. The building has approximately 6,500 square feet of indoor and outdoor space on 8 separate levels with the original brass fire pole, an intimate, private roof deck for entertaining and a 65-foot lookout tower with unparalleled harbor and bridge views. The impressive, arched barn doors open into an 836 sf. garage with 12' ceilings and concrete, steel-beamed floors perfect for a collector of cars or art. Additionally on the first floor is a 1-bedroom, 1-bathroom guest area with private entrance, large south-facing windows, exposed brick walls and 12' high ceilings and expansion possibilities. The second, third and fourth floors are currently used as offices, both open and private, but could be reconfigured as a 2+ bedroom residence with fireplace in the great room while still enjoying the original wood beams, an abundance natural light from the restored windows, and the classic brass fire pole. The lower level allows for additional office space, a home gym, media room and storage. Zoning states the property is mixed-use with offices and a dwelling unit and in the General Business zone.
