Testimonials.

Good afternoon, sweet Shannon! You think of everything. Your sweet kindness and thoughtfulness is very much appreciated. This has been the trip of a lifetime. It was beyond magical and the most incredibly amazing experience of my life. From the boat, the crew, the food, being with my family, the beach-set ups, the fun games, to the essential oil towels we were greeted with every time we stepped on the boat, it was truly an experience of a lifetime. So many great memories! I’m still pinching myself. Thank you for everything!!

We had a once-in-a-lifetime adventure in Croatia onboard charter yacht SOVEREIGN. You went above and beyond for us, planned every little activity that we absolutely loved and you’ve got us hooked on the Yachting lifestyle! From the chef’s food to the crew’s outgoing smiles, every day we were in heaven.

WOW!!!!! You certainly recommended a fantastic boat. The crew is great. The chef Adrian is the best! Josh, Mike and Paula can’t be better. We are having a wonderful time. Thank you, and thank you again.

For my first Yacht charter, I trusted you with choosing the most outgoing crew, the best Yacht with a great layout, and a once-in-a-lifetime trip from start to finish. Well, it’s now twice in a lifetime and maybe three times in a lifetime. I’m sold on the chartering life! I didn’t have any bites on my leg, but I certainly got the charter bug!

The crew was outstanding. We wanted to explore ‘off the beaten path’ and that is exactly what we did! From fly fishing in the Outer Islands to eating a private beach dinner, we never wanted our week to end. Bravo!

Ken Andrade

360 THAMES ST. UNIT 3A, NEWPORT, RI 02840

Ken’s love of boating started at an early age. He learned to drive his father’s twin screw boat by age 10. At 12, a neighbor gave him his first boat, starting his boat ownership with totals 15 to date. Whether it's a serious hard-core fishing machine, a 60' yacht for his family’s comfort or an 88 mile an hour speed boat, Ken has experience in just about any kind of powerboat. The fact that he did all his own maintenance: electrical, engine, fiber-glass repair and painting increased his in-depth knowledge of boat construction. He has brought his passion and skills together to be an exceptional yacht broker with many years of experience.

Ken believes it is important to pursue goals throughout one’s lifetime. He recently acquired his 100 Ton Master Captain’s License. He is actively pursuing his pilot license and already owns an airplane, giving him the ability to travel quickly and efficiently to help you fulfill your goal of owning the vessel that is perfect for your lifestyle. His easy-going personality and knowledge combined with his determination, will make purchasing a boat a pleasure. Ken currently lives in Bristol, Rhode Island on the water. He is waiting to meet you. You can find him at our Newport & Old Saybrook locations!

RPL Closes Second-Highest Newport Sale of 2024 with $9.9 Million Deal for Historic ‘The Playhouse’

Residential Properties Ltd.  announced the sale of a landmark oceanfront property at 294 Ocean Avenue for $9,935,000, making it the second-highest residential sale in Newport this year, according to data from State-Wide MLS.

The property, known as “The Playhouse,” was purchased by a buyer represented by Lee Scura Holloway, a sales associate with Residential Properties. The sale is notable not only for its scale but also for the historical significance of the residence, which originally served as a carriage and boat house for the neighboring “Wildacre” estate.

“As the Realtor representing the buyer of ‘The Playhouse,’ I am honored to be a part of this momentous transaction,” Ms. Holloway said in a statement. “I wish my client much happiness and am pleased to bring this property to its next generation of ownership.”

Michele Brais, the Newport Broker Manager for Residential Properties, praised the sale as a significant milestone for the firm. “We are thrilled to represent the buyer of The Playhouse, a remarkable gem in Newport’s real estate landscape,” Ms. Brais said. “This sale marks another exciting step in Residential Properties’ expanding footprint in Newport County, as we continue to connect iconic homes with discerning buyers.”

Built in 1902 and designed by the noted San Diego architect Irving Gill in collaboration with landscape architect Frederick Law Olmsted, The Playhouse occupies a prominent site along Prices Neck Cove, a serene inlet of the Atlantic Ocean. The property, which features four bedrooms and three-and-a-half bathrooms, has undergone a complete renovation, blending historical elements with modern luxury.

Upon entering through the original fieldstone arched doorway, visitors are greeted by an open-plan kitchen, living, and dining area with wide-plank maple floors and custom mahogany windows and doors. The kitchen is equipped with high-end appliances, including a Sub-Zero refrigerator, a Wolf stove, and a pizza oven imported from Italy. A fieldstone fireplace anchors the living room, offering a warm atmosphere during colder months.

Upstairs, the primary bedroom suite boasts 18-foot ceilings, a spacious ensuite bathroom, and expansive views of the cove and the Atlantic Ocean. The property’s outdoor amenities include a new pool and spa area, a bluestone patio, and a meticulously landscaped garden surrounded by stone walls. A detached guest house provides additional accommodations with two bedrooms, a living area, and a cedar closet.

The sale is the latest in a series of high-profile transactions handled by Residential Properties in Newport, where the firm has increased its market share in recent years. The company’s Newport office , located in the Bellevue Gardens Shopping Center, has played a key role in facilitating significant sales throughout Aquidneck Island.

“Residential Properties’ market share is stronger than ever in Newport,” said Sally Lapides , President and CEO of the firm. “We’ve always valued relationships and professionalism above all else. Whether working with historic estates or modern properties, our real estate advisors offer clients a personalized experience shaped by decades of local knowledge.”

Ms. Holloway, a native Rhode Islander and Certified Relocation Specialist, brings extensive experience to her role, having built a network of clients in both New England and New York City, where she previously worked in commercial real estate.

Bruce Leffers

Director of newport, ri - senior yacht broker.

My Present Allow me to introduce myself; I am Bruce Leffers. Having been with Northrop & Johnson for 24 years, I have been blessed to watch this awesome company grow. I’ve had the opportunity to contribute to that growth and it has given me great pride in the extraordinary level of service we provide for our clients

My Past  As a young man, after several tours of scenic Southeast Asia courtesy of Uncle Sam and two years of motorcycle racing, I discovered a love of the water. I ended up sailing my own boat to the Caribbean and then became a broker with Fraser Yachts, eventually opening an office in Newport, RI. A few years later, I was fortunate to join Northrop & Johnson as one of the owners.

My Future After having been a Yacht Broker for 40 years, I plan to continue offering the highest level of knowledge and service, with a proven track record of doing so.

My Motto I always believed in “Say what you mean, and do what you say!”

My Outside-office Life A fifth-generation native Floridian, I love sharing our beautiful and diverse state with clients and friends while helping protect our natural resources. Fishing is a passion, particularly in the shallow waters of the wonderous Ten Thousand Islands and Everglades National Park.
