Listed: For $3.99m, a private R.I. compound dedicated to serenity

It’s unlikely that you’ll come across another home like this in New England.

The property at 160-C Ross Hill Road in Charlestown, R.I., is a custom-built compound completed in 2018 on 19.9 acres. The property features an outdoor yoga platform, an array of fountains, and other serene outdoor spaces. The seller worked with architect and interior designer Soheil Tavakoli to inject both Persian and Native American influences into the design.

The Rhode Island estate is listed for $3,990,000 and includes three bedrooms and five bathrooms in 3,036 square feet of space. Amy Doorley-Lucas and John Blair of Mott & Chace Sotheby’s International Realty have the listing.

The home’s outdoor areas are filled with details like geometric fountains and stone work. There are areas for entertaining with custom waterfalls, a covered terrace overlooking the grounds, and a bathhouse.

Ample windows and glass doors create a seamless transition between the grounds and interior, where wood-beamed ceilings and skylights are prominent. Standout spaces include the living room, which has a show-stopping faceted dome ceiling, and the dining room, which offers ceramic tile floors and a fountain set beside a bas-relief.

Steps up from the dining space is the kitchen, which shows off a wall of blue tile, a windowpane cabinet, a farmhouse sink, and a wood island with bar seating. A seating area with a stone fireplace connects the two spaces.

That woodwork continues in the primary bedroom, where it makes up an accent wall with double doors to the closet and a double-vanity bathroom. A set of French doors leading out to one of the home’s courtyards awaits across the room, and the entire suite sits under an imposing cathedral ceiling. The property’s additional two bedrooms – one with its own stone fireplace – each gets its own bathroom.
