@residentialpropertiesltd has closed the sale of 2 @residentialpropertiesltd has closed the sale of 25 Walnut Street in Jamestown for $3,295,000, the company announced. RPL Sales Associate Jim DeRentis represented the seller. According to State-Wide MLS data, it is the fifth-highest single-family sale in Jamestown year to date. RPL has participated in three of the top five single-family sales in Jamestown so far this year, more than any other firm. The 4-bedroom, 3.1-bath Shingle-style home sits moments from the water in the coveted Ocean Highlands/Dumplings neighborhood and echoes Jamestown’s late-19th-century summer cottages. Designed by Shope Reno Wharton, the residence opens to an elliptical foyer with an eclectic tray ceiling and accent lighting. A gas fireplace anchors the living room, featuring an original glass mantel by renowned artist Howard Ben Tre. The kitchen includes a sunny breakfast nook with banquette seating, while the dining room opens to a covered porch overlooking Mackerel Cove. Upstairs, the west-facing primary suite offers a spa-like bath. A custom wood-accented study flexes as an additional bedroom or private office. Outside, mature landscaping enhances privacy, and a detached garage with a finished second level offers potential for a guest suite or artist studio. DeRentis is RPL’s No. 1 sales agent and sold more $1 million listings on Providence’s East Side than any other Rhode Island agent in 2024. He has earned the Circle of Sales Excellence Platinum Plus Award every year since 2011, when he was named Rookie of the Year. For the past 11 years, he has appeared on the “REALTrends Verified” list of the nation’s top real estate professionals and, in 2020, was named to “The 1000.” For the past five consecutive years, he has ranked as Rhode Island’s No. 1 individual agent for transaction sides and, according to State-Wide MLS, was the only agent to surpass $100 million in Rhode Island sales in 2024.

The iconic QB–TE duo will reunite at the Fanatic The iconic QB–TE duo will reunite at the Fanatics Flag Football Classic on March 21, 2026, lighting up Kingdom Arena in Riyadh as part of Saudi Arabia’s splashy Riyadh Season. It’s Brady’s first sanctioned snaps since retiring in 2023 and Gronk’s favorite kind of football: the kind without hits. Brady, 48, isn’t easing in. “I will be bringing home the trophy,” he vowed. Gronk was instantly in — with one ground rule. “There’s no contact, right? I already did all my contact in my life,” he cracked, before adding he still loves to run routes and compete. Sounds like old times: TB12 throwing darts, Gronk spiking vibes. This isn’t an NFL production, but owners are allowing players to suit up. And the star power around Brady–Gronk is absurd: Saquon Barkley, Christian McCaffrey, CeeDee Lamb, Maxx Crosby, Sauce Gardner and Myles Garrett headline a cast that screams Pro Bowl without the bruises. Coaching royalty Pete Carroll, Sean Payton and Kyle Shanahan will call the shots. Format? Three teams of eight in a round-robin, top two to a winner-take-all final. Games follow Olympic-style rules — 5-on-5 on a 50-yard field with 10-yard end zones and two 20-minute halves — a runway to flag football’s LA28 Olympic debut. FOX Sports will air it live with a Tubi stream; Kevin Hart hosts because of course he does. The event slots beside Riyadh Season’s run of mega-cards and future WrestleMania 43, another sign the desert has become sports’ hottest booking. Brady and Gronk built a dynasty in New England, rewrote the script in Tampa, and now they’re chasing one more W in the most TB12–Gronk way possible: fast, fun and unapologetically competitive. No helmet? No problem. The band’s back on tour. #tombrady #gronk #newportbuzz
