Anne Archer in Rhode Island, Estate of the Day
Most celebrity real estate hits the market quietly. At best you get a veiled reference to "celebrity-owned" or "star-worthy" but the listing for actress Anne Archer's townhouse on Narragansett Bay in Portsmouth, Rhode Island proudly declares her ownership. The townhouse is part of the Carnegie Abbey Sporting Estate, the elite golf and yachting club in Portsmouth near Newport.The Wall Street Journal's Private Properties reports that Archer and her husband, executive producer Terry Jastrow, bought the two-story townhouse new in 2003. The modest second home measures approximately 1,600 square feet and has two bedrooms a wet bar and water views that can be enjoyed from a dining balcony. The townhome is decorated in a subtly seaside theme that includes a sailboat model, striped bedspreads and illustrations of marine life.
Carnegie Abbey amenities include the massive Adirondack-inspired clubhouse which offers tennis, a spa, a fitness center and multiple lounges with a view of the Club's signature 18th hole and its beautiful Narragansett Bay backdrop. The townhouse is listed at $1.1 million but membership in the club is required. Membership reportedly requires a $200,000 refundable initiation fee plus $10,000 a month in member dues.

Nice, but the $10k a month dues will make it a VERY tough sell.
