Filed under: Estates, Celebrity Shopping

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.

A project in Portsmouth, Rhode Island will ring in a new era of luxury living for the town near Newport, once the summer home of some of America's richest and still an excellent place to while away the summer. The Tower at Carnegie Abbey will have 80 condos in the 220-foot-tall tower. The tower is part of the $220 million Carnegie Harbor Village complex which includes the Carnegie Abbey golf course and sporting club. The tower has views of Narragansett Bay and will have 24-hour concierge service, a fitness center and spa. The interiors are designed by Ralph Lauren Home and the building is expected to be a second home for wealthy tenants. At the base of the tower there are 21 Royal Cottages, which are townhouses selling for $2 to $3 million and 35 waterfront estate lots have been sold. The units in the tower range from $695,000 to $7 million for the penthouse. Around half of the units have already been sold and occupancy is expected for next year.
