Welcome to Sterling House — Your Block Island Home Away from Home
Looking for a Block Island rental that combines space, comfort, and the perfect in-town location? Meet Sterling House — a stunning coastal retreat designed for families, friends, and groups who want to experience island life together while enjoying peace and quiet.
The Perfect Home for Families and Groups
With 5 bedrooms, 3.5 bathrooms, multiple open living spaces, and thoughtful amenities, Sterling House is ideal for multigenerational families or multiple families traveling together. Guests love its bright, airy interiors and inviting layout that makes it easy to gather for meals, games, or lazy mornings with coffee and ocean breezes. The kitchen was newly renovated just a few years ago so it feels brand new and is well equipped to whip up a dinner for the whole group. Off of the kitchen the dining room and living room share one large space so there is plenty of room for everyone to gather together. However, if you need some space, there is a second living room that you can use to have some quiet time to yourself. One of the bedrooms is on the ground level with its own bathroom, exterior entrance, mini fridge and coffee machine for the guest who really needs some peace and privacy.
As one guest shared on Airbnb, “Sterling House gave us room to spread out, yet we still felt so connected. It was the perfect spot for our annual family getaway!”
Close to Town — Yet Peacefully Private
Nestled in a quiet neighborhood off High Street, Sterling House offers the best of both worlds. You’ll be just a short stroll or quick bike ride (only .25 miles away) from the heart of Old Harbor, yet far enough to enjoy calm, restful evenings.
There’s no party scene here—just the sound of waves on the breeze, laughter from the porch, and the serenity that makes Block Island special. The backyard is partially fenced in with lots of seating and space for lawn games. Everyone can relax outside, use the outdoor shower after the beach, and play some games while dinner is being grilled up.

As one recent guest put it, “We couldn’t believe how easy it was to get everywhere — we walked to breakfast, biked to the bluffs, and watched the sunset from the porch.”
