The Space:

As you enter the estate through either the front or service gravel driveways, you'll be greeted by the grandeur of Royden. This magnificent residence offers six spacious bedrooms and four and a half baths, ensuring ample space for your family and friends. The living room and dining room invite you to gather and create lasting memories, while the fully equipped kitchen satisfies even the most discerning chefs.

Allow the sounds of fog horns and bell buoys to fill the air as you bask in the serenity of this secluded haven.



For those seeking seaside bliss, a delightful private beach awaits just a short stroll away. Immerse yourself in the refreshing waters and embrace the coastal charm that Newport has to offer.



Indulge in the rich history and architectural splendor of Royden, known as the Stuyvesant Leroy House. This Georgian Revival masterpiece, designed by renowned architect Frederick Rhinelander King, showcases a meticulously crafted 2½-story, 5-bay-façade structure. Adorned with a paired-Tuscan-column pedimented entrance porch and 6-over-6 windows, this estate exudes timeless sophistication.



Marvel at the landscape design, featuring open greenswards and specimen trees that punctuate the grounds, creating a harmonious blend of nature and artistry. Enclosing the property is a classic stone wall, adding an extra touch of elegance and privacy.



At the northwest corner of the estate, you'll discover the Collins family burying ground, a poignant reminder of the area's historical significance. Enclosed by a granite-bollard and metal fence, this small plot holds 11 monuments, including slate slabs, granite slabs, and a marble obelisk on plinth. A marker pays homage to John Collins, a notable figure who played a significant role in American history.



Royden was lovingly built by Leroy, a member of a prominent New York family with a deep connection to Newport. Leroy's retirement marked the creation of this extraordinary estate, showcasing the close bond between family and this breathtaking location. Architect Frederick Rhinelander King, Leroy's first cousin once removed, is believed to have lent his exceptional talents to the design of this exceptional residence.



Experience the allure of Royden, where historic charm intertwines with modern luxury, offering an unforgettable escape in the heart of Newport's Castle Hill area.
