Home Renovation for Westerly Homes
Westerly is a coastal town in southwestern Rhode Island, home to Watch Hill, Misquamicut Beach and a historic downtown on the Pawcatuck River.
Westerly has shingle-style summer estates in Watch Hill and Weekapaug, beach cottages in Misquamicut, historic downtown homes and suburban capes and ranches.
Beach-area properties are often in FEMA flood zones and CRMC jurisdiction, which affects elevation, footprint and exterior materials.
