A glimpse inside Parterre…

One of Newport’s most beautiful private estates, and a reminder that some of the most extraordinary places aren’t the ones everyone knows about…

A reminder that in Newport, even the entrance deserves its own photoshoot..

Parterre’s entrance is the kind of scene that makes you slow down, roll down the windows, and wonder what lies beyond the trees.

Save this for your Newport inspiration folder, and send it to someone who’d immediately take this drive with you

Most Newport cottages became museums, condominiums, or campus buildings.

A select few remained exactly what they were always intended to be: private homes.

Built in 1873, The Orchard is one of those rare survivors. Set on nearly five acres, this restored Gilded Age estate features 11 bedrooms, marble fireplaces, Baccarat crystal chandeliers, handcrafted mahogany doors, and some of the finest craftsmanship Newport has to offer.

The details are remarkable. The fact that it’s still privately owned may be even more remarkable.

Tucked quietly beside Bellevue Avenue, Parterre feels less like a garden and more like a hidden world waiting behind the gates.

One of Newport’s most enchanting private estates, where old-world beauty, manicured paths, and timeless details still quietly exist beyond the hedges🌿

Save this for your future Newport walk👟
