Property description

Steeped in history and grandeur, the iconic Sandy Point Farm offers a rare opportunity to own a piece of Rhode Island’s equestrian legacy. Once a cornerstone of the prestigious Vanderbilt Estate, this property encompasses 6.15 acres of pastoral beauty. Designed by architect A.S. Walker and built in stages between 1860 and 1902, the estate has long been revered for its prominence in horse breeding and high-society gatherings. The 30,000+ square-foot stables feature 24 stalls, a spectacular 15,000 square-foot indoor riding arena, and multiple cupolas crowning the impressive 60-foot-high riding ring. The possibilities for creating a modern luxury haven on these historic grounds are endless. Here, the charm of a bygone era meets the ultimate canvas for contemporary sophistication.
