Scope Of Work
Tucked away on a quiet side street historic downtown Newport, this charming two-story building dates all way back to 1766! property is half residential, half retail, Innovative Construction had pleasure bringing back all faded beauty with a gentle restoration. With bottom retail section structure complete, old exposed beams stand tall against newly sheetrocked painted interior walls. hardwood floors were stripped, sanded and re-sealed to a glossy shine. All new electrical wiring was put in, running along ceiling exposed posts, which gives historic building a touch modern industrial style. Finally, a fresh coat paint on exterior welcomes tourists to this lovely little gem a jewelry store. One final note about this property, historic plaque to right front door reads, Built by Joshua Saunders for his daughter Freelove Remson 1766.
