House of Week: Lowest Price Home

There are 129 homes listed for sale in Barrington with AOL Real Estate right now. They range from a high of $4.5 million to a low of $139,900.

Both actually have a water view.

So, where will you find the house for sale in Barrington with the lowest price and near the water? It sits at 65 Orchard Ave. not far from the Palmer River in a nice neighborhood.

It’s a small cottage -- a definite fixer-upper just a few house lots away from the river on a small lot.

Built in 1930, the house has one bedroom and one bathroom. It's certainly not big enough for a family with children at 564 square feet of living space.

On the other hand, it would probably make a nice home for one person or a couple -- or for use as a summer cottage.

The house has a basement and a laundry room. And the last tax paid on the property was for $2,973 – a far cry from the $72,200 tax paid on Barrington’s highest-price property on Narragansett Bay.

And you would still live not far from the water.
