A rare opportunity for a true coastal asset and seaside living. WELCOME HOME to YOUR waterfront paradise.
Rumstick, located between the Barrington River and Narragansett Bay, is a residential and coastal Barrington neighborhood with winding shoreline lanes and broad water views. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Rumstick Road and Nayatt Road junction, where stone walls, mature trees, and a steady rhythm of walkers set the tone. Classic New England colonials and shingle-style homes sit on larger lots, with docks and small beaches shaping daily routines. The Rumstick Point Land Trust trails and shoreline edges frame a quiet, outdoors-forward pace. Barrington Beach and the East Bay Bike Path add a townwide backdrop of sand, salt air, and long rides.
