Perched above the shimmering waters of the Sakonne Perched above the shimmering waters of the Sakonnet Passage, this rare oceanfront estate captures sweeping western views of Aquidneck Island and the Atlantic beyond. Tucked away on 4.88 private acres in one of Little Compton’s most exclusive enclaves, 17 Ferolbink Way offers the extraordinary opportunity to create a true coastal compound — a legacy property to be enjoyed for generations. The grounds are perfectly suited for expansion, with room for an accessory dwelling, pool and pool house, pickleball court, barn, or gardens — whatever your vision of refined New England living may be. A stone path winds its way to the rocky beach below, offering direct access for swimming, kayaking, fishing, or simply basking in golden-hour sunsets with family and friends. Inside, the home is designed with ease and elegance in mind. The main level features a flowing layout ideal for entertaining — including a sunlit living and dining area, an open eat-in kitchen and sunroom, a cozy library or office, and a tranquil first-floor primary suite — all oriented toward the sea. Upstairs, three additional bedrooms, a full bath, and a teak balcony offer elevated views of the ocean and Sachuest Point. The pristine walk-out basement leads to an outdoor shower and path bordered by an artisan fieldstone retaining wall. Just minutes from area beaches, Sakonnet Vineyards, Little Compton Commons, Young Family Farm, and Tiverton Four Corners, this one-of-a-kind estate marries natural beauty with the ease of coastal living. 17 Ferolbink Way, Little Compton, RI 4 Beds | 2 Full Baths | 1 Half Bath 3,713 Square Feet of Interior Living Space

Rhode Island has strengthened its “revenge porn” statute to include sexually explicit images created with artificial intelligence, closing a growing loophole in the fight against digital exploitation. The new law, championed by Rep. Jason Knight (D-Barrington, Warren), took effect immediately upon being signed July 2. It expands the 2018 law banning nonconsensual sharing of explicit images to now cover content digitally created or altered — commonly known as deepfakes. “Victims of technically enabled sexual exploitation have no involvement in the making of any of this material and of course, gave no consent,” Knight said. “Once the images are shared, there’s no way to take them back, so the harm is permanent.” Knight added that while celebrities and politicians were once the primary targets of deepfake pornography, the technology is now so accessible that private individuals are also falling victim. “Deepfake porn is a heinous criminal act,” he said. “It should be subject to the laws that prohibit the distribution of sexually exploitative material.” The legislation (2025-H 5046) was modeled in part on a similar law passed in New York and is part of a growing national trend. As of June 2024, 27 states had enacted measures targeting AI-generated sexual exploitation. The Senate version (2025-S 0136) was sponsored by Sen. Elaine J. Morgan (R-Hopkinton, Charlestown, Exeter, Richmond, West Greenwich) and passed the General Assembly on June 20. #rhodeisland #newportbuzz
The @newportfolkfest is stepping up to the plate t The @newportfolkfest is stepping up to the plate this year — literally. On Thursday, July 24, the legendary fest will debut the first-ever Newport Folk All-Star Game, bringing together artists from the weekend’s lineup for a night of bats, balls, and benevolence at historic Cardines Field. Two squads — Team Morby and Team Goodman — will duke it out on the diamond in a laid-back but meaningful game to raise funds for Newport Festivals Foundation’s free music lessons program for local youth. The event runs from 7 to 10 p.m., but the real headline might be the $5 tickets for locals, available exclusively at the Faherty store at 130 Thames Street. That’s right — locals can snag discounted tickets right in town, while everyone else will pay $10 online at newportfolk.org While the full player lineup is still under wraps, the buzz is already building. Expect some surprise ringers and fan-favorite artists swapping guitars for gloves. Think less Yankees vs. Red Sox, more indie-folk sandlot showdown. There’ll be concessions and merch on-site, and any remaining tickets will be sold day-of at Cardines — if they’re not gone by then. This is your chance to kick off Folk Fest weekend with heart, hometown spirit, and a side of Cracker Jacks. Play ball, Newport. #newportfolkfest #newportri #newportbuzz
