North Kingstown, RI
North Kingstown is a large suburban town on the western shore of Narragansett Bay, with the historic village of Wickford — one of the best-preserved colonial waterfront villages in New England — as its most distinctive feature. The town also includes the former Quonset Point Naval Air Station, now redeveloped as the Quonset Business Park, one of the largest mixed-use industrial parks in the state.
For property professionals, North Kingstown offers a diverse market: the high-value Wickford village waterfront, the commercial and industrial properties at Quonset, suburban single-family neighborhoods, and the bay-side coastal exposure. The Quonset redevelopment has added significant commercial assessed value, and the Wickford properties command premiums for their historic character and harbor position.
