On Great Island, where the bay sets the pace and t On Great Island, where the bay sets the pace and the light changes by the hour, 17 Goose Island Road is a turnkey coastal retreat that feels both polished and easy. Fully remodeled, the 672-square-foot cottage lives larger than its footprint thanks to soaring ceilings with exposed beams and expansive windows that capture water views from multiple angles. A fireplace brings instant warmth for shoulder-season weekends, while the updated kitchen is designed for real living and effortless entertaining, with bar seating, new appliances, and a gas cooktop. The home is a true one-bedroom, one-bath escape, complete with a full-size stackable washer/dryer for stay-a-while convenience. Outside is the main event: a huge deck overlooking the water with a hot tub and outdoor shower, made for post-paddle rinse-offs, salt-air evenings, and stargazing. A large yard, ample off-street parking, and a new oversized shed add the kind of function that makes island life feel refreshingly simple. For those looking ahead, there’s potential to add a second floor, creating future flexibility and additional space. And when you want to plug back in, you’re minutes from Narragansett Town Beach and close to renowned local restaurants, with Providence, Newport, and TF Green Airport all about 30 minutes away. 17 Goose Island Road, Narragansett, RI $949,000 | 1 Bed | 1 Full Bath 672 sq. ft. | 0.34 acres Listed by The Soby Roberts Team of @mottandchace

The sound of bagpipes is almost back. Newport is The sound of bagpipes is almost back. Newport is officially just one month away from a landmark celebration — the 70th Annual Newport St. Patrick’s Day Parade — stepping off Saturday, March 14, 2026, at 11 a.m., come rain, snow, or classic Irish sunshine. The march begins at Newport City Hall and makes its way through downtown before finishing on Carroll Avenue near St. Augustin’s Church in the Fifth Ward. Expect about two hours of marching bands, booming drums, waving flags, and plenty of green. This 70th edition promises a full slate of pipe bands, fife and drum corps, marching units, reenactors, and crowd-favorite clown groups. Local and regional organizations will line up alongside police and fire departments, schools, Scout troops, nonprofits, and fraternal societies — a true cross-section of the City-by-the-Sea. As always, the parade is held the Saturday before St. Patrick’s Day (unless March 17 falls on a Saturday), a tradition that generations of Newport families have marked on their calendars for decades. The 2026 parade is dedicated to Dennis Reddy and Donald Mosher as co-dedicants. Serving as co-Grand Marshals are Michael and Tish Curtis Behan, honored for their longstanding commitment to the community. With just weeks to go, now’s the time to plan your spot along the route and prepare for road closures. Newport will soon turn emerald once again — and for a few lively hours, the Fifth Ward will feel like the heart of Ireland. 🍀 #newportstpats #newportri #newportbuzz
